Had the absolute pleasure of spending a few hours with friends at Barefoot Ceramics for a pottery experience. We were all complete novices- but Fiona made us feel completely relaxed from the moment she greeted us outside the Centre. Fiona was extremely informative and very patient with us. The whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. I would highly recommend this an outing for a bit of therapeutic fun and relaxation. Lovely Centre and the coffee shop looks excellent - we can’t wait to go back in a couple of weeks to collect our ‘pots’ and enjoy a cup of tea and a slice of cake. How Fiona managed to keep a straight face with our “overprotective” attire I will never know. Hope she’ll allow us back for more frivolity and fun!
3. The Escape Rooms

You and up to five friends are locked in our themed room for 60 minutes and have to escape. Sounds simple? You’ll need to work together as a team to decipher clues, complete puzzles and work out exactly what’s real and what’s not if you want to beat our puppet masters. Whether you’re new to escape rooms or a seasoned expert, we’re sure you’ll be surprised.

I went to the escape rooms with my girlfriend and some mutual friends for what was essentially our third date and we’re still together now, so maybe that colours my opinion but we all had a great time!! The rooms were fun, immersive and story driven. A lot of thought had clearly gone in to making the puzzles fit within the theme and even the clue delivery systems matched the themes for each room and didn’t break the reality. We only went for one room but we enjoyed it so much and got lucky that they could squeeze us in for a second game the same day! Plus when you visit the escape rooms they give you a voucher for money off food and drink at a bar round the corner called Tiny Rebel so of course we ate there too and had a smashing afternoon all round. Best escape rooms I’ve seen and I’ve played about 10 now.
4. Alpha Ops
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 4 reviews
Alpha ops is a Mission impossible cross oceans 11 style activity. A unique 2 hour experience gives you time to plan a heist using drones and high tech technology as well as crawl tunnels and laser grids to overcome. Then the break in is put into action where puzzles are set to stumble you along the way. A great unique experience for any ability to get involved.

A twist on the traditional escape room....The ultimate break IN!! We did this as a family of 4 - two adults and two children (12 & 14) and had the best time. We were welcomed by TJ and Laura and shown into the briefing room. The basis of the game being a recce followed by the "break in". From start to finish it felt like the real thing. Pressure from time, alarms, lasers, black light and everything inbetween. Just like mission impossible but in a warehouse in Newport. There was something for everyone and we all played our part in our successful mission. A great concept extremely well executed. Can't recommend highly enough. We also added a RAPTOR session which was also very cool and concluded a fantastic day!

An interactive paintball shooting experience for all to enjoy without the pain of being hit. We use realistic paintball markers which are accurate to hit targets which change colour and move to suit the ability of the shooter.

Instead of going away this year we did a bunch of day trips and outings, and one of them was to Supakart because both kids (17 & 10) fancied it. Our youngest was really nervous and the staff went out of their way to reassure him and make sure he had fun (all of them were brilliant but Morgan deserves an extra shout out for going above and beyond). Outside of making us feel welcome and helping our nervous son the track is great, interesting enough to keep you on your toes but also quick enough to make it exciting!! Great day out and our son is already organising his next party there!!!
