Fun Park: what do users think?
Kacper Piotr Król: Terrible. Not much stuff, some drawings on the stuff werent kids appropriate.
Aleric Hargrave: Great place for kids, big and small
Iosif Sabin Kovacs: Useless entry ticket. You need to pay for entertainment anyway.
Jenna Chilton: Loved it
Chudy Nwajagu: Crowded and personally I felt stressed out,but my kids enjoyed it so I guess it's worth the visit. Lots of fun stuff too.
Lily Angel: love it nearly go there everyday there so funny and love the rides xxx
The Taster: Steer well clear of this place it's a massive waste of money and time.People cutting cues to meet up with their friends completely unchecked. We saw a group of about 15 people just walk to near the front of the cue unchallenged. Pretty sure we saw 40 people jump the cue to enter. Then once you get in you have huge waits to get on virtually anything. We where there when it opened and we waited for over an hour to go on the inflatables. We asked what was taking so long and the staff said that parents weren't asking their children to come off after 4 mins. If only there was a an attendant to over see it and make sure it was organised.What's more the band's they sell don't actually allow you to get on all the rides.FYI 4 drinks and 3 bags of candy floss £16Run away.
Vivica Ogongo: Wow! This park opened 2 weeks ago and its wild! I have been there today and it’s appropriate! One problem though... operator of Xflight ride isn’t respecting pre - teens like me.
Tom Gemmell: Toilets in a horrendous state, my child was gagging while trying to go to the toilet. Operators of the rides very rude.

Jungle Adventure Ltd: what do users think?
Emma W93: Had my sons 2nd birthday here back in February and come here most weeks for play dates: it’s spacious, gives them enough freedom to run wild but contained enough that you know their not going to escape.Love it, the staff are super friendly and the food options are plenty ( good for people with fussy kids)
Matt Ford: Rude staff at coffee house! I am deaf, staff did not have a pleasant way of dealing with me! Also ridiculous price for 3 hot drinks at £10.50?! Avoid!!!!
Danielle Humphries: Went today with my boyfriend, step son & niece ages 5 & 10.We had a lovely time, kids loved the play area and my niece loved the football court and we loved the coffee win win!!Staff where constantly cleaning everywhere, even the toilets when we went into use.It was busy as you'd expect for a Saturday afternoon in winter but not too busy and over crowded it all seemed well under control and safe for the little ones.I'm really impressed as we have visited a lot of play centres but me and my boyfriend will happily travel 40 mins to visit here again.Great job guys! :)
mehmet smith: Nice friendly clean place .. staff were lovely. The man ( with tattoos down his arms) might have been the boss was a lovely top fella. Will 100% be back !
alysia alder: I was dubious about going today because the reviews were very mixed but the play areas are clean, the toilets are warm & well equipped. The guy at the front desk was cheerful & polite cannot comment on anyone else. I’ve given 4 starts because the food is pricey for the quality.
WINFRED WAMBUI: Am so disappointed by one of the staff at the reception by the name Aby!!my God the lady did not take time to digest what exactly I wanted she dismissed me indirectly and told me to refer to their website 😢, I wanted to book for a birthday party room, she took no time to offer me any verbal information. She told me due to power cut she could not assist in anyway. Luckily a very good lady overheard the conversation as she passed and offered me a chance to look at their party rooms bless her. She was so calm and answered my every question. She also told me to write down my contact.After I left I called back after like four hours only for Aby to answer my call and told me she can't talk to me and offer any information because the phones were not charged since its been an hour since they got their power back. Like seriously, how?a phone need more than an hour to charge for a big business like that!
Maxine Dawson: We went for the first time yesterday. The admission price was reasonable. The young lady on reception was lovely and very welcoming (Brown hair tied back) The premise’s looked very clean. A very good menu, however expensive! (It all adds up) I was hugely disappointed in the babies area, not much at all for that age. I much prefer ‘Go Bananas’ as they have so much more to offer the little ones. Jungle Adventure, is great, but much better for the older child. We witnessed an incident where a father, starting shouting abuse at one of the children. The staff, went over and spoke with him BUT allowed him to stay within the premises. It made me feel extremely uncomfortable (especially around my Grandson) he should of been escorted out of the building! Would I go again?! Maybe BUT please ,make the babies part bigger and put some toy’s in etc… Also the older children, should not be allowed in that area.
James Havers: The owner of this place has a terrible attitude, seems like he couldn’t care less about his paying customers. Shame, won’t be coming here again.
Nancy: Front of house staff needs training.I used to come here a lot however standards have slipped. Being the first point of contact you need to deliver excellent customer service and that’s not what you receive. She needs more training and most importantly common sense. You are meant to go above and beyond when dealing with customers (the ones paying your wages). Apart from that the girls/ boys inside are very friendly and helpful. I am someone who’s trained front of house staff and been one myself.
Alaina Caira: Had a party here for my daughter today. Chose it because it had a great deal but also because of all the soft plays in colchester this is definitely the cleanest! Coffee is decent and food (I have only had jacket potato here) is good! Prices aren't bad for normal admission either and plenty to do for all ages too. Staff always seem friendly and helpful, the manager always seems to be around too which can't be a bad thing for the running of the business. The party today, we had Molly I think as our host, she was fab and really helpful, nothing was too much trouble and the venue catered for guests allergies. Really happy we booked here. Well done team! 👏
Danielle Lomas: Great value for money staff are amazing especially Abi can never do enough to help actually brought the 6 week pass because of her !!! defiantly worth the money lots of entertainment and activity’s for the kiddies food is all fresh and healthy no greasy chips and burgers always clean and staff actively cleaning tables and chairs and high chairs straight after use and there is hand sanitizer available all over would definitely recommend great for all ages as have the football court my 11 year old boy loves thank you jungle adventure
Marcus Evans: If you plan to go to a soft play that is clean and well maintained, this is the one for you. The food is above average quality for a soft play as well, with the pizza especially good.The soft play itself is well maintained and large, with areas for different age children and ample entertainment for kids of any age. It has massive amounts of parking and is good for birthdays.The staff are friendly and work fast, so have never had to wait too long for food.All in all probably my favorite soft play, and with young kids I have visited more than a few!
Rob: Very poor, very rude staff.My wife took our son who is 18 months old. Whilst there she spent £15 on food and drink. Whilst waiting for the food to come out (the service was very slow) she gave our son some strawberries to eat at the table which she had brought out with her for the day as he was getting restless and upset. She was then asked to put them away as wasn’t bought on the premises. Even though she did so begrudgingly the manager felt the need to come over and try and belittle her further. This is unacceptable behaviour for someone running a child’s play centre as this was done in full view and hearing of anyone around. Will not be returning and nor will any of the other mums in the party of 4.Shot yourselves in the foot there for the sake of an extra couple of £ when you’ve already had the best part of £25!
R W: First time visiting - weekday morning.First impressions - I wish I had never bothered to "go" to the other soft play in Colchester. This one outdoes them in so many ways. There are sections that aren't restricted to age but suggested to ages. There's a 0-2 area (that one was restricted tbf) a 0-4 suggested and a 4-9 (please don't quote me !) But either way my 19 month old got to try each of these 3 out. These are just the side areas in addition to the main event soft play area for the older kids.It wasn't busy, or cramped. The food menu was fantastic. The staff were really nice too which also added to the experience.Can't fault it tbh, and this is coming from a mum with pretty bad social anxiety so you can imagine soft plays are one of my fave places to visit...Completely outdid my expectations - worth every penny and I don't say that often. Thanks Jungle Adventure. We shall be back!
Chrissy Kerssen: Great time here. Large and was very clean, not busy at all during the day… it felt very open, I felt maybe there could be a bit more about, but lots of tables and. Hairs that I’m sure on weekends are really needed. I wasn’t a fan of all of the pay to ride toys about the place, we’ve already paid money to get in and it just feels unessecary and drama creating with young kids.
Jaime Tung: I'd been to Jungle Adventure around 2-3 times before deciding to book it as a venue for our 4-year-old's birthday party, and I'm so glad we did. As several others have remarked here already, it's probably the cleanest soft play centre we go to and there are a variety of activities for the kids. I love the different sections but my 3 little ones really enjoy the trampoline and also the bit where they can kick/throw the soft balls. Staff are super friendly and welcoming, unlike other centres we regularly go to. I'd recommend it without hesitation to anyone else. Our three children are 4 and 2 (identical twins), for reference.
Inga Pop: We have celebrated our daughter's 2nd birthday and frankly speaking we were disappointed!!The staff was OK, but the rest of all, not really.First of all, they changed the room assigned to us without informing us and secondly the room wasn't ready in time, they were cleaning it and our guests were waiting!!We felt rushed and restricted!We bought a premium pack, but IT DOESN'T WORTH THE MONEY!!
Daryl Mann: Paid £8.50 to take my 10 month old as it is £3 for him and £2.75 for each adult?We was there for an hour and a half to then be told our time slot had ended, which we had spent most of that time feeding our son and having our lunch unaware of the time limit we had (very stale tiny sausage sandwich costing £5.60!)Sadly the only time we did have to play we was in the UNDER 2’s area to be greeted with around 5/6 children around the age of 6 turning the ball pit upside down and throwing balls near our babies! There was no staff patrolling any of the play area, no parents to be seen and the play mirrors were absolutely disgustingly filthy!Safe to say we will not be returning
Jde52: We’ve been on 2 occasions now. Unfortunately on our first visit our 14m old little boy was sick shortly after arrival. The staff were absolutely FANTASTIC !! We offered to clear it all up and they insisted it was fine, checked our little boy was okay and if there was anything else they could do but we said we’d best take him home. They very kindly offered to book us in for another visit for free since we’d not been there very long. Tbh I was expecting to pay a cleaning charge instead of being welcomed back so that was a very very pleasant surprise.We’ve just been for our second visit and staff were still as welcoming and friendly. The soft play is fantastic and clean with so much variety for the kids to do. It’s also not been cram packed on either visit like many places which makes for a nicer experience. Food was lovely, hot and reasonably priced. Definitely going to be our go to soft play from now on !

Braiswick PR Children's park: what do users think?
Squeak: Lovely little park. Nice open areas, a small kids playground including a zip wire and small climbing wall, and a dog agility area which is a fantastic addition.4 entrances, one of which opens onto the main road so not suitable for dogs off lead unless they can be recalled / stopped.Has private allotments on one side.Unfortunately, you do have to be careful with young kids and dogs because cyclists often do not slow down along the cycle path that runs through the middle of it.

Westlands Playpark: what do users think?
Jessica Loxley: Lovely place to visit for free for any age! Lost out on a 5 star for the lack of shade when sunny, the play park equipment also burns when it's hot weather and the tyre swings have been removed
Kay Wright: Super little park, good for toddlers, older children, parents. Grandparents, dogs. Sweet little enclosed area for younger children. Could do with few more benches, we always sit, have coffee cake which we bring, dogs can play and have fun. Little wooded areas, mown areas, old straw bales to play on, well done whoever, council??
DJ Samuel Hann: Nice park and lots of woodlands to walk around and explore we then found a rope swing and an assault course. Ideal for all ages and it seems to be well kept ideal for a picnic and bike rides , dog walks too as there are bins dotted around.
Carol Dowling: Great place for a walk, children to play. Well kept. Great facility.
Stephen Brannon: Grandson (3) enjoys going there when it's dry.
Jason Jones: Great
Carlos Ross: Built on a dump, good use of land and well looked after.May have stuff of value when the apocalypse hits and all the dump stuff rises from the ground. Bit open but could have some good strategic defences too.
Emma H: Lovely area to walk with the children
Miroslaw Jastrzebski: It's absolutely lovely place.
Jo Sibley: Very muddy, take wellies
Kayleigh Mitchell: Fab little parks and great place to walk
Peter King: Good place for kids and walking the dogs
Dave Cooper: Ideal for small kids. Lots to do.
Andrew Cartwright: This isn't always the tidiest of playparks for the little people, but it has got a few bits for them to play on - little one likes going through the tunnel and slightly bigger (but still small person) likes the big round swing thing! The larger country park also has an obstacle course and area with a zip wire!

Robert Young: Smashing family day out by the seaside. Arrived just before 11am and parked in the multi story cat park which was £7 for the day and a 10 minute walk to the pier.You can wander round the pier without payment, however the rides are all £2/3 a go. With a couple of children it made sense to buy the unlimited ride wristbands which also give you 6 credits in the arcade and a free round of crazy golf for £24.99 (although they are a couple of quid less if you pre book online).Kids absolutely loved it and spent loads of time on the rides. Queues were no more than 5/10 mins and the golf took around an hour. We took our own sarnies and ate on the beach and then spent some time in the arcade using the credits.Once done, we went for fish and chips at John's fish and chips (on the way back to the car park) which was freshly cooked and delicious. Kids meals are a fiver each. Large fish supper was over a tenner, but it was tremendous.All in all we were there for 8 hours and really enjoyed it. Visited Easter half term 2023.
Raza Imdad: Good
Jenna Louise: Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Not sureMore
Jamie Mark: Great place for the family
Zaiton Salehy: We loved it, the water slide was very enjoyable.Visited on Weekend Reservation recommended Not sure …More
Terry: Really good to see the revamp has been carried out to a good standard and well worth a visit ☺️
simon willicombe: Nice to walk around, but would never go on the rides they are far to expensive
