Ben’s Play World

Ben’s playworld is great for kidsI would say kids under about 12 though. There is loads for them to go on from ball pools, to demon drop slide and a whole lot more.
Ben’s also do fantastic kids parties where they provide all the food and party bags etc and all the kids seem to love it, mine definitely do and never want to leave!
However I have given it less stars than I would have if it was all good, the downside to Ben’s Playworld is whilst th kids are playing it seems a great idea to sit in the café sectionhowever wheras the kids party food is good the price and quality of food sold there otherwise is disappointing.
But the thing that lost it 2 stars complately is the staff that run the café section. blatantly rude is a word I’d use, I may just have been in there on 2 particularilly bad days for them, but they grunted replies, didn’t bother to tell me where any of the sauces etc were and basically just didn’t seemt o want to be there or to help in anyway.
The staff members who go into the kids party rooms to arrange things are different they are ultra happy and helpful. needless to say you can see why the others are hidden behind the catering counter!
So yes Ben’s is worth it for your kids to have a lot of fun, but I rarely bother to even buy a coffee there! x

It’s a reasonable day out at Ben’s Play World.
We went one early evening on our way back from a shopping trip to St Austell. It’s easy to find, just follow the brown signs. There is ample parking.
It’s probably a better place for under 10s really. It’s very safe — kids cannot run out the doors or anything so you can relax in the café type area and leave them to explore.
The place, when we went a couple of years ago, needed a little bit of a cash injection but they were doing the best with what they’ve got to keep the tourist trade coming in.
It’s about a fiver for the kids in peak season and you have to pay a little bit for adults aswell which is not good, altough the car park was free so I suppose it evens out.
They have alot crammed in there for the kids amusements and the kids would be in there and happy all day as long as you adults take enough reading material.
Recommended for a rainy day or for a treat after dragging the kids round the Eden Project down the road.
