Plan your visit

Twelve lanes, set up for kids and groups

There are 12 tenpin lanes with up-to-date scoring. For young children the lanes have guiding aids and lane-side bars to stop the ball dropping into the gutter, and the smallest ball weighs 6lb. The minimum age to bowl is 4 and up to six people can share a lane, so it works for a family or a small group. Bowling parties run as one hour on the lanes plus 30 minutes in a private party room, with a minimum of 10 children. Sunday mornings (10am to 11am) have quiet autism-friendly sessions with no music, announcements or flashing lights.
