Went here on Saturday. If you go at 10 on a Saturday you can have 2 hours play for £2. They call it Happy Hour??
Then you can go off, do your shopping at Morrison’s, go for a swim, go to the cinema – all are nearby.

Nice play area. Lots of play equipment for children even though in quite a small area. They have definitely made the most of the space that they have. Snacks and drinks available. Not a huge amount of seating, so get there early!
Park in nearby residential streets or across the road in the car park.

How to use this site

You can look for things to do in several ways. Use the search box to find something specific; click on one of the ideas tags for a list of associated activities; or click on one of the place names for a list of activities in that area.

We cover Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate, as well as Birchington, Cliftonville, Manston, Monkton, St Peters and Westgate. There's also a category for daytrips out of the area, which includes anything outside Thanet - as far afield as France.

Listings are brief, often just a sentence or two with images or video plus a link to a relevant website for more details.

We're not aiming to provide detailed descriptions of each and every attraction. The intention is to help you find ideas for things to do on a rainy day - or even on a sunny one.
