About

Discover the Magic of Play at Mini Ville!

Welcome to Mini Ville, an enchanting early years development play hub where children can escape the technology-driven world and dive into a miniaturised version of Carrickfergus! Our charming little town features a variety of themed buildings including a vet’s office, school, shop, café, construction site, ice cream parlour, garage, and even a baby area and our very own Castle. Each space is designed to spark imagination and provide endless opportunities for creative play.

At Mini Ville, we believe children learn and grow best in an environment filled with exploration and discovery. Our unique setting encourages little ones to let their imaginations run wild as they engage in a range of immersive play activities. Whether they’re taking care of animals at the vet, building at the construction site, or serving treats at the café, children will delight in the freedom to play and learn in a safe, nurturing environment.

For children with sensory needs, we offer a purpose-built multi-sensory room where they can indulge in a secure and quiet space tailored just for them. This special area ensures that every child can enjoy the magic of Mini Ville in a way that suits their individual needs.

Looking for a unique birthday celebration? Mini Ville is also available as a birthday party venue, offering a memorable experience in our delightful little town.

Mini Ville’s Imagination Station and Sensory Hub is perfect for fostering social skills, creativity, and a love for discovery with morning and afternoon sessions available.  All play sessions are 90 minutes long. Each paying child and baby admission comes with one free accompanying adult. Additional adults will require an adult admission ticket. Complementary healthy snack included for child.

Weekend sessions are mixed age and perfect for the whole family to make play memories together, or catch up with other families, or have a hot cuppa while watching your little ones play and explore as all areas of our play town can be seen from our coffee area

Join us at Mini Ville, where every visit is an adventure, and watch as your child’s face lights up with joy and wonder. Book your session today and experience the magic of a little town built just for kids!
