The Ben & Holly’s Little Kingdom Thistle Castle Playset (RRP £24.99) comes with a bed, treasure chest and Princess Holly character, but it doesn’t include her best friend Ben Elf. You can play with the playset on its own, or collect and connect additional figures and playsets.

The castle is magical and full of surprises. It was priceless watching little man playing with Holly and exploring the castle. It has two floors, Holly’s bedroom upstairs and a kitchen downstairs. Holly is gorgeous as always, with her wings, crown and magic wand.

In Holly’s Bedroom, there is a bed, with a shaped mattress so Holly can lie down and be placed securely in bed. The bed can be removed, so there is plenty of space for Holly to play in her bedroom.

Little man particularly enjoyed opening the toy box and discovering a secret passage. By lifting the toy box lid, it reveals a secret slide to the secret room below. It is definitely little man’s favourite feature dropping Holly through the secret hole.

The treasure chest is also magic, it opens two ways. One way it reveals an open chest, while the other way reveals a chest full of coins. Little man says the treasure chest is magic, so nobody can find the coins from Thistle Castle.

The fun doesn’t end there. There is a magical floating throne that can be moved up and down, and a secret door in the floor that leads to Nanny Plum’s Book of Spell. After reading the book of spell, Holly can walk to the cauldron and start practising some spells.

Once the ladle in the cauldron is turned, King Thistle portrait disappears from the wall, and a new painting appears. At the same time, the cupboard door opens, revealing lots of fruit and vegetables.
