KiddiCity

If you’re in Eastbourne and looking for somewhere to take the under-8s on a rainy afternoon, this place is a solid shout. The role-play areas are genuinely good — think doctor’s surgery, bakery, hair salon — the kind of stuff that keeps kids occupied for hours rather than minutes. It’s clean, well-lit, and laid out so you can actually keep an eye on your little one without doing constant laps of the building. The staff have clearly had a reset under new management and it shows — friendly without being over the top. Locals rate it highly for birthday parties too, and honestly, having someone else handle the chaos while you enjoy a coffee is worth every penny.
