challenges we faced over the 6-month period, but luckily we had some great support from friends, family and local trades. Safe to say, without those guys, life would have been even more challenging.
What’s the best thing about your new premises? It’s a great size for the kids and has plenty of space for parents to sit and watch. Everything is visible from the seating to make parents more relaxed.
Can it be hired for private parties? Yes, you can book to have exclusive use of the Zebra’s Den soft play and our party room with the option to have our kids lunch boxes included. We can also tailor make each party to your needs. Give us a call to discuss options.
What makes Zebra’s Den different? We have tried to give our soft play the extra wow factor, including our realistic roleplay rooms, baby sensory area and super popular toy cars, all complimented by the amazing bespoke artwork.
All our produce is locally sourced for our tasty home cooked meals and our barista quality coffee, again sourced from Oundle.
Dinner out or at home? Out if possible, though more challenging now with a young family. The kids love the pizza at Salernos and for me I would pick a curry at the Onkar.
...and a favourite tipple to go with it? Cold bottle of Peroni or Kingfisher.
You have a day off, what do you do? Take the kids to the Zebra’s Den of course.
Any future ambitions? We will be expanding the Den very soon as we haven’t even opened the upstairs area yet. We are thinking of maybe something for the older kids.
What brings you joy? Giving back to Oundle and the community. We did it 10 years ago when opening Oundle Fitness Gym and Studio, and now again with the Zebra’s Den.
Jaffa cake or Hobnob? Hobnobs. www.zebrasden.co.uk
