Things To Do
Let's dive right into the aquatic wonderland that awaits you and your little water enthusiasts. The Time Capsule boasts an exceptional water park with an array of thrilling slides, splash zones, and lazy rivers. Prepare to be swept away by the excitement as you embark on exhilarating rides, some gentle, and others that will get your heart pumping.
Ride the high-speed Storm Chasers with twisting twin flumes or try the awesome Tornado Tantrum, where four people can travel together! If you're brave enough, then test your strength and endurance in the Tsunami wave pool.
Head to Splashdown Island to get drenched with a huge tipping bucket, powerful water cannons and water sprouts! After all, that, float down Riptide River, a lazy river with a rapid ending! Then, there's Cove Island a safe and sheltered section for parents or guardians with tiny tots. The fantastic water park offers some of the best slides in the UK and it's a family favourite for a reason!
For younger ones, the Coral Cove is a safe and sheltered zone for them. Same amount of fun in a smaller environment! There's also a 25m swimming pool to take a dip in - equal amounts of fun for adults and kids!
Soft Play
If your little ones would rather stay dry then younger children (under 5yrs) can have fun in the Tiny Tots Play Zone with its ball pools, log ramps, bash bags and much more.
Watch as their faces light up with joy as they explore the colourful climbing frames, soft play zones, and engaging activities. This section is designed to foster creativity, stimulate imagination, and let kids burn off that endless energy in a safe and supervised environment.
Cool Ice Skating
If you're visiting during the cooler months, be sure to explore the Time Capsule's fantastic ice skating rink. Whether you're a seasoned skater or a beginner, gliding across the smooth ice is an experience the whole family can enjoy together. Don't worry if you've never skated before; friendly instructors are available to help novices find their balance and take those first graceful strides.
Fitness and Wellness
The Time Capsule isn't just about thrilling rides and play - it also promotes health and wellness for the whole family. The modern fitness centre offers a wide range of exercise equipment to suit various fitness levels and preferences. From cardio machines to weightlifting and group classes, you'll find everything you need to stay active during your visit.
Plus, you can unwind in the relaxing spa area, where parents can relax while the kids have a blast at the water park or play area! Treat yourself to a rejuvenating massage or a dip in the warm, bubbling whirlpool for a moment of blissful tranquillity.
Food & Drink
Exploring all the attractions can work up quite an appetite, but fear not! The Time Capsule has got you covered with its delightful selection of dining options. From quick and tasty snacks to hearty meals, there's something to satisfy every craving.
For a family-friendly lunch, head to the on-site café, where you'll find a variety of dishes to suit even the pickiest eaters. The welcoming ambience makes it a great spot to relax and refuel before continuing your adventures
