Machinations Playbarn at MachinationsMachinations Playbarn at Machinations

Machinations has something for everyone, a play barn to bounce off energy, a rabbit village where you can feed and stroke the animals and the model museum where you can turn handles, push buttons and watch everything work. There is a café with a full and varied menu of drinks and meals and a snack bar attached to the play barn for greater convenience. We run model making workshops and parties by arrangement but there is always a painting and modelling table set up for creative work both in the café and in the play barn. There is also a ping pong table room which can also be used for other group activities.
