Ernest Wilson is pleased to present a well-maintained and highly regarded children’s soft play centre, designed specifically for the under-fives age group. Established in 2018 to accommodate the owners’ young family, the business has grown successfully and is now offered for sale as the owners shift focus to other ventures. The centre benefits from a loyal customer base and strong reputation, with over 1,500 registered subscribers and more than 13,000 social media followers, providing excellent visibility and ongoing marketing. The business generates an annual turnover of approximately £123,253, with clear opportunities to increase income, including potential takeaway services for neighbouring businesses. Operating family-friendly hours across seven days a week, the centre is largely staff run, making it an ideal opportunity for an owner-operator to take a hands-on approach, reduce staffing costs, and improve profitability. Sessions are pre-booked via a professional website with an integrated booking and payment system, allowing efficient staff planning and controlled visitor numbers. Private weekend party bookings provide additional revenue. This play café is particularly suitable for someone passionate about working with children, offering flexible working hours for parents. With an experienced team in place, the business is straightforward to take over and operate. The premises are available on a secure lease, with terms negotiable. Occupying two adjoining units within a modern business park in a well-populated area of Leeds, the location is highly accessible and includes a large free car park for customers. The layout features a welcoming reception area with dedicated pram and buggy parking, leading to the main soft play area for children aged 0–5. The space is divided into two play rooms to provide age-appropriate experiences. One room includes a themed parade of shops and role play area, while the second is designed for babies and younger toddlers with soft play, sensory items, and age-appropriate activities. Additional facilities include a kitchen and food preparation area, pot wash section, customer WCs, and baby-changing facilities.
