Even adults admit to having a good day out while visiting Empire of the Sea Dragon Indoor Zone at the Woodlands theme park in Devon.
Empire of the Sea Dragon Indoor Zone claims to be the biggest indoor play area in the UK.
A description on their website reads: "The biggest indoor play area in the UK, this is more than a radical Fun Factory it’s a whole world of nonstop play for all ages."
The entertainment hub is home to five floors, with slides, rope bridges, swings, net towers and rides.
Included in its attractions is the Trauma Tower, which they claim is the "best indoor ride in Devon" because of its huge 50ft drop.
