VRec ’ s VR Free Roam Arena offers multiplayer games and experiences to allow you to team up or compete against each other , adding a new level of excitement to your entertainment and plenty of brilliant , fun memories to be made .
This idea also makes it the ideal place for parties ! Available for group bookings , visitors can also make use of the Rec Room where you can relax with a light snack , a drink and the option to play a game of table football or air hockey . insideKENT predicts that VRec will be the new go-to place in Ashford for parties ( for both children and grown-ups !), and an excellent activity for all the family .
insideKENT spoke to VRec founder and owner Jackie Dawes , who said : “ We can ’ t wait to bring VRec and our virtual reality experience to Ashford . Whether you ’ re a gaming enthusiast , an adventure seeker , or just looking for a unique and unforgettable experience , we ’ ve got something for everyone . We ’ re looking forward to welcoming you to our virtual reality entertainment centre very soon .”

For our readers wondering exactly what ‘ virtual reality ’ means , it is a computer-generated simulation of a three-dimensional image or environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical way by a person using special electronic equipment , such as a helmet with a screen inside or gloves fitted with sensors . As VRec is , at its core , an entertainment experience designed for the utmost fun , all virtual reality experiences at VRec will be uplifting , lots of fun and designed to impress the game enthusiast in anyone .
Over the past few years , virtual reality has taken the world by storm , enhancing research and development across life-changing industries including science and medicine , as well as making big moves in the entertainment and leisure industry . VRec is a great example of the latter and is certain to be a fantastic attribute to Ashford and its community .
