The Peggy Jay Centre is a colourful children's play facility in the middle of green, leafy Hampstead Heath. Situated at the Gospel Oak end close to the lido, it also makes a superb place to have a child's birthday party.
Only available weekends from 9am to 6pm, all year round.
Capacity for up to 40 people indoors or 80 if the weather is good enough to use the outside play area as well as seating for 30-35 children available.
