We have our very own soft play area filled with climbing frames, slides and colourful ball pools complete with a dedicated baby zone. The impressive size has the children (and their parents) in awe. The little ones have an endless amount of fun exploring, climbing and stretching.

Our large indoor grass area ensures children get active and enjoy ball games no matter what the Scottish weather has planned.

Our community garden is within easy reach and children begin to understand the world around them by growing and nurturing their own fruit and vegetables and fragrant flowers.

Mealtimes are enjoyed by all too.

The pace is relaxed and looked forward to, with no need to setup tables and chairs each day.
