Fantastic value for money. The staff are helpful and the cakes are just delicious. Lots of pottery items to choose from to paint, which look super after glazing. Great day out for all ages (granny aged 60 and youngest aged 5). We’ll definitely be back.

A second visit for me to this lovely Arts and Crafts house with its artworks and the fantastic collection of Tiffany glass wares. We were lucky enough to be there when the curator was showing a group around and explaining the different techniques used as well as the history and the characters. The cafe is very pleasant and has table service and a good range of food and drinks available. There is no charge for entry but donations are welcome.

Reviewed By gemmahF1646QA

Went to the toddlers session today with my 3 year old little boy. He tends to be nervous about trying new things so it was no surprise that he got upset about not wanting to go on the trampolines. A member of staff, Paul, was absolutely brilliant with him. He offered to turn the disco lights off and put the lights on to give him a bit more confidence. He was very patient, positive and encouraging. After some persuasion my little boy went on and had a brilliant time with his friends. Thank you Jump Works and Paul, we will be back.
