Things you need to know

At Bury Lane Fun Barn we know that sometimes a few helpful guidelines can make all the difference to guarantee a fantastic family trip, so please read the information and our Terms & Conditions below to help you get the most out of the Fun Barn.

1. Relax

Bury Lane Fun Barn is all about having fun with your kids and relaxing whilst they have fun, so please do enjoy our hospitality, treat yourself to a coffee and make the most of it.

2. Watch

Your children are your responsibility – whilst there are always staff on hand in the cafe and around the Barn to help, it is your job to make sure that your children are where they need to be and playing safely.

3. Dress

Socks must be worn at all times by children and adults using the play equipment and no shoes are allowed in the play areas. Our slides are fast so friction burns can happen; to help avoid this, we recommend that parents make sure their childrens’ arms and legs are covered before using the slides and play area. Please note we recommend that children are over 5 years old to use the large slides in the main play frame.

4. Contact Us

We know how much goes into planning an outing with the kids and that the smoother it goes, the happier everyone is. So, please do call or email us with any questions (or just drop in to the Fun Barn when shopping at Bury Lane Farm Shop) to make sure you have the info you need.

5. Take Care

We’re all about fun times to remember. Please encourage your children to consider the enjoyment of others they are playing with and share – aggressive behaviour and bullying will not be tolerated and may result in guests being asked to leave immediately.

To enjoy the Fun Barn soft play, we strongly recommend guests book a timed session especially during weekends and school holidays. Walk-ins may be available at quieter times however these will be entirely at the discretion of the Management and subject to the maximum capacity allowed.

All adults must be accompanied by at least one child, we cannot accept adults only bookings. The first adult per booking is free, any additional adults must be booked in and paid for.

We would ask you to promptly leave the Fun Barn at the end of your session time for cleaning to take place. All personal belongings must be removed from the Fun Barn at this time.

All bookings can be made up to seven days in advance.

The soft play and indoor seating areas will be closed to all guests between session times to allow for essential enhanced cleaning.

There will be adequate indoor seating for everyone who is booked into a Fun Barn session however should you need an Accessible table, please email funbarn@burylanefarmshop.co.uk. All special requests will be considered but cannot be guaranteed.

Food can be ordered from the Fun Barn kitchen from 9am to 4:30pm (Mon-Sat) and 10:45am-3:15pm (Sun), but cannot be ordered between sessions when cleaning is taking place. Cakes and drinks are available until 30 minutes before the Fun Barn closes.
