My kids and wife bought me a 30 min flight experience at Britain’s. We went today and was really surprised that this was infact in a dining room! Don’t let that put you off though as the setup is first class. Dave was really friendly and clearly very passionate. A cup of coffee later and we were lined up at Manchester airport ready to go. I chose a short flight to Newcastle and off we went. Everything is so realistic, the controls, the noise and the graphics. 30 mins later I touched down safely! Brilliant experience and would highly recommend. Thanks Dave for a great afternoon.

I've always liked arcades and gaming machines and played on many since the first space invader came out.Going to Retrodome is like taking a time machine to my childhood!For a reasonable fee,you get a wristband which gives you access to a lot of the classic arcade machines.You can come and go as many times as you want.If this is not quite your thing,there is a console room ,a VR room and a band room upstairs.Theres a well stocked bar downstairs and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Overall,a great concept,well laid out and a great way to kill a few hours.WELL DONE Luke!

What a lovely day is to be had here if you want safe and peaceful family fun. The maze felt safe with plenty of room, fun games to play in the field afterwards (bean bag throwing games, go karts, space hoppers etc) and comfy hay bales to sit on and enjoy the sun and scenery. Beef burgers are home made and generously sized; and the Maizy Moo icecream is really delicious. No e numbers, just from the cow, with flavourings if you want them. One of my favourite summer outings...

Tyke Racing, the ultimate karting experience, bringing all the excitement and adrenaline of go-karting to Barnsley, South Yorkshire! We have the latest generation of high-powered adult and kids' electric karts, which are every bit as exhilarating as petrol-powered ones - with none of the noise or nasty smells. We've created a purpose-built raceway complete with hospitality, conference and spectator viewing areas, which is a few minutes from junction 37 of the M1 and is easily accessible from Sheffield, Leeds, Doncaster, Chesterfield, Wakefield, Rotherham and the rest of South Yorkshire. Our fleet of British-built EcoVolt karts is powered by high-tech Lithium batteries giving quick, smooth acceleration that can leave petrol-powered karts standing.

Drivers can simply book in, turn up, jump in the driving seat and head out onto the track for the ride of their lives. We're the perfect venue for a stag do, hen party, an unforgettable birthday party or a works' night out. And we also pride ourselves on the quality of our corporate and team-building packages.
