Touch-screen lanes in Ardkeen

Ardkeen Village in Williamstown is home to Activate, an indoor activity centre that opened in December 2015 and spreads nine activities across more than 25,000 sq ft. Bowling shares the building with a three-floor soft play and toddler area, climbing and bouldering walls, a laser arena, a VIP karaoke room and newer interactive games such as the PXL floor and iWALL.

There are six lanes, each with its own touch-screen console for choosing games and posting scores to Facebook. Children from three can bowl, up to six people share a lane, and every session has to be pre-booked online. The kids and families page lists €40 for a lane-hour plus a booking fee, while the adults page still shows €37.50, so check the total at checkout. The café and pizzeria turns a game into a meal, and Discover Ireland notes free car parking and full wheelchair access.
