"This is a collective review as members of Andrew’s Beginners Power Hour group over the last 8 weeks. We are sharing a drink (great socially- we will carry on bouldering together!), and reflecting on a fantastic course and instructor. We have all improved our technique and confidence thanks to Andrew’s teaching. Thanks very much and we’ll see you soon!"

"Great place! Very friendly and warm atmosphere! Being totally new to bouldering it was great fun, the induction video explained things very well and the staff were amazing! I will certainly be back! Coffee is good too and love the random mugs too 😆"

"I have used this space in a professional and personal capacity and every time the staff have been amazing. Their professionalism mixed with a sense of humour (very much needed in today's world 🌎) shows their customer focus is second to none. The facilities are fabulous 👌 and the ability to hire shoes etc and purchase items as well is a great business model. All around I would highly recommend this space for beginners (definitely me!) and experienced climbers alike. The walls get changed frequently so it is definitely a place where there is always a challenge. Well done FBR and team 👏 Highly recommend"
