We need to spend 5 hours at Gatwick this Sat morning, with our 18-month-old son who will be extremely bored and grumpy if we don't do something exciting for him :( We will have a car so we are thinking about going somewhere to entertain him (up to half hr drive away) but have no idea where. Does anyone know any indoor activities for toddlers near Gatwick?


thanks in advance!

I'm sure we went to a kids farm which was around Gatwick and was great for young ones - it had a small soft play and was quite low key compared to Godstone park. I can't remember the name of it - though think I've posted about it before. Think I found out about it on the Sussex version of Netmums. That's probably a good source of other options too.
Yes, Holmbush was the one. I thought it great for younger ones as the soft play is small and rather tame for older ones - so it doesn't get the crowds of older kids that Godstone Farm gets. And you could wander around outside with your coffee. Outside play area is great - but probably not so good in this weather.

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
