What mums & dads say about us

Super friendly

Everybody is super friendly and accommodating. My son went for a climbing session today the the gents at the front desk were super friendly, accommodating, and encouraging. Facilities are great. Definitely coming back to foster my son’s love of climbing.

AMAZING KIDS ROOM

Great mix of angles, holds, and styles and an increasingly good variety of setting. Training area is good too. And the cherry on top is an amazing kids' room, where little people can have an absolute blast and fall in love with climbing.
