Jollie’s Barn

If you’re local to Preston and haven’t been to Jollie’s Barn yet, you’re missing out. The indoor soft play keeps younger kids happy for hours, and the outdoor climbing frame is solid enough to actually challenge the older ones too. Staff here genuinely seem to enjoy their jobs, which makes a difference when you’re wrangling a birthday party — and yes, it’s a decent shout for parties, with the food and drink being better than your typical play barn fare. Good for all ages, and one of those places you’ll end up coming back to more than you planned.
