Welcome to Barnaby's!

A great indoor play centre and party venue!

The perfect Venue with a range of parties to suit everyone.


Barnaby’s Playbarn offers a clean stimulating environment in which children can burn off all that energy while exploring their surroundings and developing social skills.  While they’re having fun, you can relax, meet new friends or catch up on the latest magazines, enjoying a fresh ground coffee in our comfy sofas.

At Barnaby’s Playbarn, we have activities for all ages.  For prewalkers we have a soft play area with soft bricks and developmental toys.  A special area for under 3′s, a slightly smaller slide, a big ball pool and things that make funny noises to keep them entertained.

And for the bigger children we have our large play area, with rickety rope bridges, super wide slide, wobbly walkways, giant ball pool and loads to explore.

Research shows that children learn effectively through play, from crawlers to toddlers to older children.  At Barnaby’s Playbarn we aim to provide you with a safe environment in which your children can enjoy the freedom to play every time you visit.
