Soft Play in Cornwall by Town: Where to Go When It Rains

Short answer: Cornwall's soft play centres, by town: Newquay has Jungle Jack's (£9.50 for 3+) and Newquay Leisure World; Bude has The Venue (£6.50 for 2–12); Hayle has JungleBarn at Paradise Park; St Austell has Kidzworld at Par Moor; Bodmin has Super Tramp; Pool has Carn Brea Leisure Centre; Redruth has Roar Jungle Play; Penryn has Raze the Roof; Helston has Ferdi's Indoor Play.

When it rains in Cornwall with small children, soft play is the answer. Here's where to go, by town.

Newquay

• Jungle Jack's (Treloggan): £9.50 for over-3s. Sections for different ages and a good café; tables are allocated with your booking.
• Newquay Leisure World: soft play for ages 0 to 12.

Bude

• The Venue: £6.50 for 2 to 12-year-olds. Bowling and an arcade under the same roof.

Hayle

• JungleBarn at Paradise Park: a huge indoor play barn alongside the wildlife park.

St Austell

• Kidzworld at Par Moor.

Bodmin

• Super Tramp at Callywith: trampolines rather than soft play, for older children.

Camborne, Pool and Redruth

• Carn Brea Leisure Centre, Pool
• Roar Jungle Play, Redruth

Falmouth and Penryn

• Raze the Roof, Penryn

Helston

• Ferdi's Indoor Play, on the old Flambards site (the theme park closed in 2024)

Launceston and Liskeard

• Trethorne Leisure Park near Launceston: indoor soft play, bowling and farm animals. Closed Mondays and Tuesdays.
• Liskeard Leisure Centre: the new centre has soft play.

Padstow and Wadebridge

Camel Creek has an indoor playhouse; check its winter opening before you go.

Truro and Penzance

We haven't found a dedicated soft play we can vouch for in either. From Truro, Raze the Roof (Penryn) and Roar (Redruth) are both about 20 minutes. From Penzance, JungleBarn at Hayle is the nearest.
