The 30 Best Children's entertainment in Newcastle

“Place has changed much since I took my kids. Now I am taking the grandchildren. Still keeps them happy”

“Decent entertainment centre with good size play area full of adventures for children. Unfortunately I didn’t take photos of the playground as I don’t want to capture other children. My child had fun playing here with his friend. We had lunch at the main restaurant, I had fish and chips. It was ok ish. I can’t comment on other menu. Overall, it’s a nice entertainment centre perfect for a family days out.”

“Moo Music is absolutely fantastic. As a first time mum I had some anxiety about bringing my baby to new places, but Lucy is so incredibly friendly and welcoming. I look forward to the class every week, and my little girl absolutely loves it, her face lights up when we mention Lucy and Maggie Moo, or when I sing the songs to her at home. It's been so lovely seeing her little personality developing as she's beginning to socialise with other babies. Each week is completely different, which is great! It is very cute and amusing to use fancy dress accessories for each theme, and there is a large variety of resources for the babies to use, which are clean and well maintained. Lucy is also fantastic, she addresses the babies by their names and acknowledges what each baby is doing throughout the class. Overall its a brilliant wee class, I'm so glad I joined! It's also great value for money!! I would 100% recommend Moo Music! Thank you Lucy!”

“I was stuck and called last minute and was greeted with fantastic communication and the quality of childcare put in on such short notice was exemplary, highly recommended.”

“Excellent price and selection of goods. Very responsive customer service, helpful, friendly- everything you could wish for when buying online. Will use again and have no hesitancy in recommending.”

“Haved used TUI Newry previously and most recently today to book a trip to EuroDisney. Corrina was so helpful and kept me up to date every step of the way, providing tips and recommendations based on personal experience. Will use again for any of my travel needs!”

“This is a beautiful boardwalk out to the beach..one word of warning..check to go at low tide! We arrived at high tide and had a very uncomfortable stony walk towards Newcastle. This had to be abandoned as the tide was so high, it was up against the steep stony boulders bordering the golf course.”

“Our wedding was beyond what we could have hoped for! From our initial viewing through to the big day, Larchfield were wonderful. We chose the 'Larchfield Bliss' package and it was such a great decision. Meg one of their incredible coordinators recommended and then chased up suppliers. She was in contact with us in the run up to the day and was there on the day and the morning after. She was professional but relaxed and made the whole process so fun. There were wonderful options for both indoor and outdoor ceremonies, and they shifted timings slightly and dried seats on the day so our ceremony could still be outdoors in the walled garden despite a burst of rain just before. They had an MC (Derek) who ran our day so that it went without a hitch - ushering guests at the right time and getting everyone in the party spirit. Also they have such a great indoor/outdoor reception area with fires and marshmallows in the evening! This connects to a relaxed bar area and the barn where we had dinner and our band was like something out of a fairy tale. All of our guests were blown away. With the package the barn is already decorated and it was absolutely stunning, but Larchfield are happy for you to add your own touches if you want. It was a very personal service with as much or as little input from the team as you wanted. They were available for query's from us and our family at all times and let us go back for repeated viewings. They even had the venue packed up by the team the next morning! We booked the accommodation for 2 nights and it was so special to have our close family, bridesmaids and groomsmen all staying on site with us. The accommodation is really high quality and very comfy beds! Thank you to Larchfield for making not only our day but the whole planning process seem easy/fun. We've enjoyed the whole process and are so grateful to your team for all the work they put in.”

“We absolutely love Tiddly Town! We've been many times, and every visit is just as exciting as the last. The sessions are fantastic – the toys are always spotless and constantly updated, ensuring fresh and engaging play every time, but always relevant and familiar to the children's experiences. The variety of activities encourages so much imagination and creativity, and it’s wonderful to see how much thought has gone into every little detail. A real highlight for us has been the Princess Events, they are truly magical! The experience is unforgettable, and it creates such special memories for little ones. The joy and excitement on my daughter's face during these events are priceless. What makes Tiddly Town even more special is its positive impact beyond the sessions. My little girl loves it so much that we even role-play it at home! The mix of engaging play and learning opportunities is fantastic, helping children develop social, imaginative, and problem-solving skills in such a fun way. The staff are absolutely wonderful always greeting us with a smile and ready to help in any way. You can really tell they care about creating the best experience for both children and parents. Overall, Tiddly Town is an incredible place, packed with fun, learning, and magical moments. We can’t recommend it enough and look forward to many more visits!”

“Weeeeee and will leave it in then I can get a better idea of the construction of space station”

“We booked Escape HQ for a work outing/team building activity and had a brilliant experience working with them start to finish. They were professional and responsive in the planning stages and on the day they looked after us and gave us a great time. Our group was 35 people of various ages and nationalities and everyone is still talking about the craic. Thanks David and Conor and the rest of the guys at Escape HQ!”

“My son and I had an amazing time at Castlewellan Forest Park on the e-bikes. The experience got a 10/10 from my son, which is high praise indeed. I would recommend Life Adventure Centre wholeheartedly.”

“Holy Trinity Church belongs to the Heritage Center and they have done a wonderful job preserving this medieval church and it's graveyards in this incredibly beautiful little medieval lough-side village. Inside this centuries old church is an amazing mural filling the entire wall opposite the stained glass window. It shows Carlingford and her multiple ruins as they had been back when these places were built. The stained glass window which soars to the sky had once been blown out of the church after it had fallen into near ruin itself. Four local men came and picked up all of the pieces, cataloging them and keeping them until it was restored many years later. Thanks to the Heritage Center for helping insure Holy Trinity Church will be here for generations yet to come.”

“We love Rowallan house and Gardens . Beautiful all year round . Great tea house , book shop and Matts pottery is beautiful. i just bought some new pots for the garden ❤️”

“A lovely campsite and caravan park with ehu. Kids loved the playground and they loved the massive slide zip wire and loads of space just to run around. Good toilet facilities which are close by. Alan is a great host and always made us feel very welcome”

“We had our daughter’s 8th birthday party here in Saturday with her whole class. It was absolutely amazing! Kids had a ball, food was great, staff are just lovely. I’d recommend it to anyone. Absolutely brilliant day!”

“An excellent camp centre run by outstanding staff!”

“Amazing family experience. This really got us and the kids into the Xmas spirit. Really well done. The kids had a ball. Visiting Santa made the whole experience he spoke to them about their favourite things and what they wanted for Xmas. Highly recommend is a tad expensive tho.”

“Beautiful wedding venue. The party area for the reception was so well decorated and the balcony made for a great cool down zone post dance marathon. The bar staff were really lovely, especially a ginger-y gentleman who was working at the bar upstairs. Very friendly and working his butt off to keep up with a lot of big drinks orders. I didn't stay in the guest rooms that night but I have heard from family that it was a great stay.”

“Castle Ward is a fabulous day out for the family. In addition to the house tour with its splendid architecture and story, the grounds and walks are lovely. Enjoy the stable square for coffee and bites to eat.”

“Great spot should be called thousand ways cause that's how much kids enjoyed it”

“Attended a wedding here and stayed over. Staff were very polite, quietly efficient and helpful. Food was very good and the rooms were clean, characterful and the bed was very comfortable. The atmosphere was one of calm relaxing and elegant definitely recommend a stay.”

“I love this hotel staff are great and do go that extra mile We were there for our 28 th wedding anniversary (reception was at millbrook). We were given a suite and a lovely card and some treats awaited us on arrival beautiful room good wide bath well with a visit”

“The kids loved here. Its all trampolines and sponge pits . They are supervised and you can get fresh pizzas cold drinks coffee tea and traybakes too. They also have party room . Would highly recommend here .”

“Fantastic experience! Super comfortable beds, tasty food, crisp pints and unreal staff. Cannot recommend enough. Only thing that needs work is the coffee which is far from a deal breaker.”

“Shop itself is a generic toy shop, the staff allow children to play with items which I appreciate as means I can see what my daughter likes. The till layout is a bit strange but it's never been hugely busy when I have visited so no issues. As for the chain itself, I appreciate the free delivery for items over a certain price, the prices of things are very competitive and I've once had reason to contact customer support due to my own mistake with an order and found them very helpful.”

“I seen the Minecraft movie at 5:50 pm on Wednesday only 2 people in the room it was a nice experience with my XL popcorn that was way bigger than I thought I seen mufasa with recliners a while back and it was and amazing place definitely recommend it”
