Natural play for families
Based within Bolton’s iconic Moss Bank Park, The Hive offers a unique space, made up of a series of gardens adorned with natural play equipment.
Designed with pre-schoolers and the under seven’s in mind, The Hive encourages young people to make lasting connections with nature through creative play. The Hive has self-led play activities to inspire young minds, including water play, musical fun in our sound garden, bug hunting, den building, plus our mud kitchen.
The Hive is currently closed for the Winter and will re-open again in late spring for the 2025 season.
