    Enthusiastic and passionate staff. Extensive bouldering which and the new lead walls add loads more lines for roped climbing. I really enjoy visiting this climbing wall.

    Great centre. Little more pricey than Depot, its competitor in Nottingham, but it's less busy, which means the holds get less worn and full of chalk, and you can climb the routes you want. Every single member of staff is friendly and the vibe they give is just great. Regular resets means it always stays fresh and it has grades ranging from children's climbs all the way up to 7C (I believe, maybe 8A). There is also a good amount of top roping and lead climbing for which you can get sessions to learn. They also don't ban you from drinking on the mats which depot does for some reason??? Also just a bunch of friendly people go there always willing to cheer you on or give you tips.

    Love this gym! It has bouldering and top rope / lead areas, and they have just added an improved tall, slightly overhanging lead wall, which I'm obsessed with. The staff are always friendly and there's usually a couple of huskys hanging about! There's also an upstairs training room; I use the hangboards and weights, and circuit board.
