A wonderful place that makes my girls feel at home. Lovely staff & the girls love the water area, the castle, the bikes but most of all the soft play area. I Always meet great people to talk to & it helps a lot.

We are one of the UK's leading museums for British military aviation history. Boasting 40 fixed wing and rotary aircraft on site, we have fascinating exhibits and a wonderful 'Apache Cafe' looking out over the busy Middle Wallop Army Air Corps airfield.

If you want to see helicopters and light aircraft albeit retired ones, and see displays of army flying in history to the present day then this is for you. It needs time to enjoy as there is a lot of detail, so either go solo or accompanied only if your companions are really interested in this sort of history. A very good few hours can be spent at this museum. Plenty of safe parking space in the grounds.

This is my local park and I think it is the best thing about Hastings! It is huge and varied from wild areas, ornamental flower beds, ponds -one with fishing, wild life including very cheeky squirrels, bowling greens, tennis courts and multisports hard surface area, a super cafe with outdoor seating, toilets, rare trees including champion trees, bandstand, a stream runs through it's great length and there is even a kiddies miniature railway with limited opening times sadly. Just try it when you visit Hastings, you won't be disappointed.It is a day out on it's own but I suggest not trying to see it all on one visit!
5. Lower Leas Coastal Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 998 reviews
New measures have been introduced by Folkestone & Hythe District Council in response to the sheer numbers of people visiting the Lower Leas Coastal Park. These measures include: Banning barbecues in the Coastal Park with immediate effect. BBQ pods have been removed. Refreshing the double yellow lines along Radnor Cliff Road. Installing a lockable barrier on the Coastal Park car park and close this overnight from 8pm - 8am to discourage groups from staying late into the evening. We are unable to release any vehicles over night. Installing additional signage and exploring the use of large electronic signage located at various points in the district/access points to the park areas. Increasing the amount of enforcement and advisory officers to give a higher visual presence. We will be issuing warnings - and potentially fines - to anyone acting in a way that negatively impacts on others.

This park is along the cliff and under cliff of Folkestone and provides a lovely green walk between the town above and the sea below. It is a pretty Victorian experience - an amphitheatre with the sea as a backdrop; attractively planted flower beds; a zig-zag path up the cliff through the the trees to the bandstand on the esplanade above. And all the time, the sea and pebble beaches stretching out to give lovely views. What a treat - and all for free. I wonder if the funicular railway/lift works in the summer to complete the back-in-time experience.

Looking for a clean, bright and friendly soft play centre in Hedge End? With a huge play area, featuring a 3-level climbing maze and an indoor football target practice area, Play Shack has plenty of things to keep your little ones occupied. Why not set up a play date and catch up with your friends over a cup of coffee while the kids play! Don’t worry, the play area is in full view of the cafe, so you’ll always know what your sprogs are getting up to. Coming with kids of different ages? While your older tots run around and burn off some energy in the large soft play area, under 3s can play, explore and interact with each in a separate space, designed especially for them. With soft play for toddlers and stimulating sensory play for babies, your youngest will have the chance to have fun in a safe environment, while developing their physical and social skills at the same time. Loving Play Shack? Throw your kid’s next birthday party there!

I left a poor review before but today we had such a lovely time. The staff were so friendly; and helped me with my little boy who had an accident (our fault not play shacks!) and the staff member who helped us with him was wonderful. The hot drinks we ordered were great too. The place was clean and tidy. My son loves play shack so wanted to give a good review. We’d also been last week during half term and the staff were brilliant then too even though it was heaving!

This is a great playground for children with swings for various ages, a zip wire which our grandchildren are too young for yet, imaginative slides and wooden houses that children love to spend time in. Then you can see the boats going by on the river and walk easily into Westgate Gardens and feed the ducks and moorhens. What more could young children want??? We take some frozen sweet corn or peas which have defrosted by the time we get to the ducks and they love this, often coming up on to the riverbank along with the pigeons. The bridge between Toddlers Cove and the Gardens have some lovely pictures and a poem by local poet Maggie Harris. If you are doing any grannie or grandpa sitting which we do once a week this is definitely a place to go.

Seeking somewhere for a number of friends with young children to meet up at with food and activities over Christmas, this met our needs perfectly. Nicola was great on email beforehand, offering us online prices at the door, and we were able to stay from opening (10) until 3pm, ensuring we took home tired and happy children while the adults all had plenty of time to catch-up with each other.

Tonight attended an exclusive party at Clubworld. Staff and facilities were amazing. Have been to a number of soft play places and all equipment was far superior as well as being clean and well laid out compared to many. All involved in the running of Clubworld were friendly and helpful. Can not recommend high enough as a place to go.
