Worzals said on Facebook: 'We are delighted with the decision today and are so pleased to be bringing something new and exciting to the area. The new expansion will bring another 80-100 job opportunities for local people and a fresh, new venue for children and families to enjoy.'

The project will include a new indoor play barn, food and drink outlets, a coffee shop, three party rooms, an ice cream parlour, sweet shop, Santa's grotto and seating for 250 guests.

Architects for the project, Swann Edwards Architecture, said: 'This is a fantastic project for Wisbech and the surrounding area.'
