The dbdplay team have been absolutely fantastic in helping us envision, plan and develop our fantastic new garden!

The children (and adults) have had so much fun exploring the bug hotel, performing on stage and getting tangled in the spider web!

Our garden is now truly an all year-round place to learn, explore & play. Thank you so much.

Little Willows Day Nursery

Bath

A huge thank you from us here at St Laurence; the trim trail was installed in super quick time with minimum fuss and was very well organised throughout. 

The two chaps were absolutely lovely and did a brilliant job.  The children are super excited to get on playing on it tomorrow!

Thank you!

We are delighted with the recent installation of our two trails and they are in constant use! The site team were really responsive and efficient keeping me in the loop throughout the process. Despite the seasonal weather conditions  we navigated a live experience on site!
