Darlo Play Plaza – Children's Role Play Centre

Welcome to Darlo Play Plaza

We are dedicated to allowing children to use their imaginations as well as having learning opportunities. The play area is based around role play and encourages the children to play alongside other children as well as their parents/guardians. We want to help children grow within their skills and knowledge of the world. While our play area is based around the shops you’d find in a town centre, such as police station, restaurant and a supermarket, stay tuned to see what else we’ll be bringing to the centre!

While our recommended age range is up to 7, we know that every child is unique, so if you’re unsure or have a question, feel free to drop us a message/call/pop in and we can have a chat.

Gemma Moody

“My son has autism and learning problems so we are always worried that we take him places and he gets upset and doesn't want to stay and we have wasted our money but the staff let Luke play for free for his first session and this made things so much easier for us as a family. He really enjoyed it and we will be taking him again. Thanks to all the staff.“

Joanne Carrigan

“We visited this morning and thought it was brilliant, quiet, but that’s to be expected with it just being relaunched. All the facilities you could need, free car park right outside the door and cake! My two year old really enjoyed herself, I think me and her aunty may have had more fun finding all the bits in the little town set out. We will definitely be back and recommending to people. Good Luck with the relaunch Lauren. Xx“

“We had a party booked here under the old “tiny town” after worrying we would loose our deposit of £50 after it closing and having to find elsewhere, Lauren the new manager called me to advise she would give me a full refund back, and invited me for a free play. Having been and played i was very kindly given back my deposit I can safely say we will be returning very soon and this has confirmed there are genuine kind and honest people still about. Thank you Lauren and we wish you all the best for your new venture your plans sound amazing xxx Via Facebook“

“We have had a fantastic afternoon at Teenir Town. Following the close of tiny town we thought we had lost our £50.00 deposit however new owner Lauren has put us right financially (which she didn’t have to do) and hosted is for a play afternoon today. We had a great time all the play areas remain the same and the place including toilets and play area was immaculate. We were made to feel so welcome and my 3 year old and one year old had a great time. Speaking to Lauren she has lots of plans for the place. Rembered why we loved the place and will definitely be returning. Ps the cakes were delicious 😋 x“
