Features

  • Role Play Village: Let imaginations run wild in our two handcrafted Role Play Villages – a standout feature at Riverside Hub. Kids can dive into a world of make-believe, exploring a café, garage, shop, doctor’s surgery, building site, witches house, goblin bank, tooth fairy dentist and more. It’s the perfect space for creative play and social fun.
  • Go Karts: Ready, Get Set, Go! Hop into one of our electric Go-Karts and race around in style. They’re easy to drive and packed with fun features like working lights and engine sounds. Kids of all ages can take part – and if they need a hand, grown-ups can ride along and help steer.
  • Carousel: Our classic carousel isn’t just for little ones — big kids and grown-ups can join the fun too! Hop on a giant rabbit or horse and enjoy a nostalgic ride that’s guaranteed to raise a smile.
  • Free-Play Arcade: You and the kids can play our brand-new arcade games as many times as you like for free! Play basketball, shoot zombies, race against your friends and more in the Hub’s latest play area.
  • Climb to New Heights: From little ones to adventurous grandads, everyone can enjoy our exciting climbing activities — no experience needed! Choose between our beginner-friendly oak tree or take on the 10-metre beanstalk if you’re feeling brave. You’ll be fully harnessed, safely supervised, and ready to reach the top.
  • Toddler Area: Designed just for under 1m explorers, our Toddler Area is packed with fun – from ball pools and activity walls to a gentle waterbed and dolphin carousel. It’s a calm, secure space tucked behind a gated area, perfect for quality time with your little one, away from the hustle of the bigger kids.
  • Space Golf: Get ready for 9 holes of totally out-of-this-world mini golf. Travel from alien planets to futuristic spaceships in this wild, sensory-filled adventure. With glowing lights, reactive sounds, and plenty of surprises, it’s fun for all ages — toddlers love the effects, and older kids (and adults) can battle for the win.
  • Laser Tag: Get ready for fast-paced, space-themed laser tag where it’s everyone for themselves. Battle your friends through smoke, lasers, and intergalactic surroundings. We use cutting-edge laser guns for a totally awesome experience. It’s perfect for kids aged 4+, teens and adults too.
  • Giant Playframe: Four epic levels of soft-play fun, packed with slides, games, and themed zones — it’s a dream come true for kids (and adults too). Explore a football pitch, ball wall, two cool slides, and endless play features – all designed at a 2m head height so grown-ups can join in the action.
  • Sensory Rooms: Our calming sensory rooms are perfect for little ones, especially babies and toddlers. Enjoy soft lighting, murals, crystals, and gentle effects in a peaceful space made for bonding. You’ll also find sensory surprises throughout the Hub – even our Space Golf is a sensory treat, with reactive lights and textures perfect for exploring.
