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.

Sensory Room Rules of Play

The Sensory Room is for babies under 2 years old or children with additional needs under 10 years old.
You must be prepared to show a local authority additional needs card or similar.
Please note, if there is only one adult with a baby or additional needs child plus another child/children aged 2 years and over wanting to use the main soft play, regrettably you will not be able to use the Sensory Room as children cannot be left unattended in either area.

TO MAKE A BOOKING PLEASE CHOOSE FROM DAYTIME TERM TIME ONLY, AFTER SCHOOL TERM TIME ONLY, WEEKENDS ONLY, SCHOOL HOLIDAYS, BEACH ONLY, SENSORY ROOM AND SEN SESSIONS. You can make a Sensory Room only booking however should you wish to also use the soft play, you will need to book Fun Barn places as well.

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.

Please remember that socks must be worn on the equipment at all times, for both children and adults. We always have socks available to purchase should you forget to bring your own.

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.

Food and/or drink bought in the Farm Shop or elsewhere may not be consumed in the Fun Barn or Beach @ Bury Lane.

  • Socks must be worn at all times by children and adults using the play equipment and no shoes are allowed in the play areas. We do have socks for sale if you forget yours.
  • All adults must be accompanied by at least one child or part of a group attending with children.
  • All children must be supervised by an adult aged over 18; it is that adult’s responsibility to ensure the welfare and location of the child. Bury Lane staff will monitor the safety of the area and supervise first aid facilities but not the children themselves.
  • No food, drink or chewing gum to be taken into the play area. Only food and drink purchased in the Fun Barn cafe may be consumed in the Fun Barn or on The Beach.
  • Only goods which have already been paid for in the Farm Shop may be brought into the Fun Barn (however please note that food/drink bought in the Farm Shop may not be consumed inside the Fun Barn or on The Beach). If you’d like to spend time in the Farm Shop then please do so either after you and your family have enjoyed the Fun Barn or whilst another known parent / guardian is watching your children play…and if you would like us to help with anything at all, please just ask!
  • Height and age restrictions are in place for everyone’s safety and will be enforced by Bury Lane staff where necessary, the upper age limit for children is 10 years old and the maximum height limit is 1.6 metres tall.
  • As it is a soft play area please remove sharp objects such as watches, jewellery and belt buckles to help ensure the safety of your children and our equipment.
  • Personal belongings are the responsibility of the parent/guardian and must not be taken into the play area. Bury Lane cannot accept liability for theft or loss.
  • Children who are not feeling well are not allowed to use the play equipment.
