Honest ratings, built for parents

Two scores, not one

Every venue gets two separate ratings: a Kids score and a Parents score. Because a place that sends children wild with excitement might also have a two-hour queue, a £15 car park, and no decent coffee. Both things matter.

What goes into the Kids score

Four things, weighted equally:

• Fun factor — How excited do kids actually get? Do they want to stay longer?
• Age fit — Does it work for the ages you're bringing? We flag the sweet spot.
• Engagement — Is there enough to do, or does it wear thin after 20 minutes?
• Replayability — Would you go back? Or is it a one-time tick-box?

What goes into the Parents score

Also four things:

• Value — Is the price fair for what you get?
• Ease — Parking, prams, getting in, finding toilets. The stuff that makes or breaks a day.
• Facilities — Baby change, food on site, shelter if it rains.
• Stress level — Honestly, how much is this going to test you?

Where the data comes from

We pull Google reviews, visit reports, and parent feedback — then run everything through our scoring model. We don't accept payment for ratings. A venue can't buy a better score.

The price band

We flag every venue as Free, £, ££, or £££ based on adult admission. Because knowing a place is great is only half the picture — knowing if it fits your budget is the other half.

The age sweet spot

Every venue has an age range where it really clicks. We call this the sweet spot. A toddler soft play and a high-ropes course both have their audience — we just tell you which is which.
