What Our Customers Say
EXCELLENT Based on 282 reviews Posted on Google Connor JacksonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing morning, surpassed all expectations. Will be coming back regularly. So much for the little ones to do, lovely interactive show. Cant speak highly enoughPosted on Google Charlotte LTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing place. Everything is in great condition, not too crowded even when it's "busy" and great entertainers. Took my 3 year old and 8 month old and both had a great time exploring. Much, much better than a softplay. We come to Dorset a few times a year on holiday and always come back.Posted on Google Hannah ProsserTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If I could rate it more I would. Came here today with my two under two and to say whoever made this establishment really did put 100% thought into every single detail, even down to the toilets (little seats attached). My two who are normally timid kept running away from me, they felt so safe and happy. Cafe was excellent, staff absolutely fabulous and in all a 10/10 place!Posted on Google trevor northcottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have been coming to Discovery Village for many years now, and it has consistently been one of the most wonderful experiences for our family. It’s so much more than a typical soft play — every session is thoughtfully put together and brought to life by the fantastic performers who guide the children through imaginative adventures filled with music, movement, and storytelling. What we’ve always loved most is how naturally the children learn while they’re having fun. The “Story of the Day” keeps every visit fresh and exciting, and it’s amazing to see how it encourages curiosity, creativity, and confidence in the little ones. From caring for animals at the vets to helping at the fire station, the sessions are always engaging, interactive, and full of energy. After attending for many years, we can honestly say it remains just as special as ever. The team put so much heart into what they do, and it shows. A truly magical experience for young children and their families.Posted on Google Bianca MatharooTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had such a wonderful experience at the role play village! We booked a party for our daughter. It’s a fantastic place for children to use their imagination, explore different roles and learn through play in a fun. The village is beautifully set up, with lots of different areas for children to explore. It’s so lovely to find somewhere that provides entertainment and handles everything including party food! Highly recommended for a party!Posted on Google Sharon MasseyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My 2 year old had a great time, they had a pirate entertainer tooPosted on Google Leanne LewisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was my first time coming here as recommended by my friend. I booked for myself, my mum, sister and two nieces who are 2 and 5. I was so excited as I'm a big kid myself 😂 It did not disappoint!! Such an amazing place and the different play areas were honestly incredible and the thought and detail that goes into each one is amazing! I love that you also have a live entertainer that comes out to play with them too 🥹 We went at 3pm and this was a fab time with the right amount of other visitors and children. The staff are honestly incredible too and the service was fantastic. I love how inclusive it was with the menu and catering to different dietary needs and how you have SEN friendly visits advertised too. Such a wonderful place and would definitely recommend to absolutely anyone with little ones! It was so fun for kids and adults hahaPosted on Google Susan FordTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
