"Took my 9 year and 17 year old here today (17 year old only came for his brothers sake). Was told to get there half an hour early before time slot, pleased we got there 20 minutes early as we were just stood around until 10 minutes before the start of the session. Because everyone gets clipped on one after the other, there was a massive hold up. I'd say the structure doesn't look as big in real life as it does on the videos. I'm scared of heights so hadn't booked on but even I could have managed most of it. The zip wires did not look like much fun. You get an hour session but they came off at 40 minutes as they were bored. I don't know if it's because my boys have been to a few Go Apes, which are higher and more challenging. This place is great for people who are maybe not as confident and as a starting point. There are toilets on site and a vending machine for drinks. Ice creams/lollies available. Nice area where you can walk along the river."

"We had great fun and really enjoyed our experience. Can work out a bit pricey if your taking a few people /kids but I think we would do it again. Loved the zip line of which there are two levels to try. The two hosts who came up with us were very friendly and really helpful."

What an experience , a safety climber is on the barrage to help & advise . What an amazing structure & challenge, 2 zip line areas , such fun ,a adrenaline challenge , toilets & refreshments available on site booking is essential"
