Being a girl and going for my first ever climb i was quite nervous. I was greeted by Charlotte who took me through the whole process and eased my nerves. I couldn’t recommend Charlotte more. She gave me a great first climbing experience and I can’t wait to come back and climb with her again.

Escape Rooms Durham

A real life escape game has arrived in Durham. You and your team will need to solve a series of puzzles in under an hour, can you beat the room? Great for team building, stag/hen do's or just a great way to spend an hour with friends or family!

We had great fun at Escape Rooms Durham - clues to crack codes, to release keys, to open draws, really challenging with additional clues provided by Danielle who guided us just as much as we needed and we escaped with 22 seconds to go (but there were only two of us so not bad!) Highly recommend this - a fun hour that gets you thinking!

Little Land Play

Little Land Play is the home of big imaginations. Based in Peterlee we are a children’s role play centre for the under 7s with dedicated baby and under 2s areas. More than a play centre; it’s a space that develops learning through play in a relaxed calm environment for parents and care givers alike (or big people as we like to call them!) We operate several play sessions each day 9am - noon, 12:30 -3pm and 3:30-5:30pm (weekdays only for the 3:30 session). We ask guests to book online via our website but don't ask that they arrive at the start of sessions. As parents ourselves we know managing to get somewhere on time with little ones can be difficult, so our sessions are long enough to arrive a little later and long enough for your little ones to have a great time! We are a proudly family owned and operated business, and would like to hear your feedback about your visit. If you have any questions before your visit done hesitate to call or e-mail beforehand!

We went with my partners parents who are 80 and it was great fun. Alex our host was fabulous he was giving just enough nudges to move us on and was very accommodating to the older ones. We all said it was a good experience even after a few squabbles during the game ha ha. Defo recommend fun for all ages.

Visited here with my daughter and granddaughter and was really impressed. A great place for little ones to play and as there is a limited number of spaces for children per each session it doesn't feel too boisterous or overcrowded. Saying that it is quite a roomy place anyway. Had tea and cake which was really nice and very reasonably priced. Will be visiting again soon as my granddaughter had a great time

Great afternoon. Lots for little ones to do and a nice clean space for them to play. Had some lunch and a coffee and was happy they offered soya milk. Good value.

My friend and I brought our 3 years olds for the infinite tots session. It was so good! The kids really enjoyed it there was plenty to keep them entertained so that they could go from different activities from jumping to running in the soft play to playing with the ball pool. We will definitely be back!
