★★★★★Featured review by Juliarose Chittell

I have just taken a small summer club of children (18) to Clip n Climb and I just want to thank them for THE best experience ever! From booking to the very end they were exceptional. Natasha who helped with the booking is patient and kind, D'Arcy on reception was patient and very helpful and kind. Obviously the floor staff on the day were the stars. They made sure that EVERY child mattered! Our group was a mixed age group and mixed abilities, with a 3rd having varying additional needs. They were patient, kind, supportive and persevered with each child, encouraging them, climbing with them, and cheering them on, all the while keeping professional. To see these people help children achieve what they thought they never would takes some doing. The toilet facilities and cafe were excellent, very clean and great coffee (coming from a very picky huge coffee drinker!). While it is small there is good space for seating. Thanks to friendly professional staff and clearly a company with good ethics, while we paid, we were helped to keep the costs as low as possible without the need to beg, and the children experienced everything they have there. We have previously used another company that has outdoor adventure climbing, who were expensive (most of these children couldn't pay for these activities and would therefore miss out) with no discount or free place for carers and also staff who lack understanding and compassion for young people with additional needs, and that's if we could find them. So well done Clip n Climb., we would happily recommend you and will be back next year!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Excellent for families with children aged 4-14 who have never climbed before, and particularly strong for children with additional needs or height anxiety. The staff's personalised approach — learning names, giving targeted tips, staying close — repeatedly turns hesitant first-timers into confident climbers within a single session.

AMAZING experience, we came here for a birthday party and staff were just brilliant. They were so helpful and involved with the little ones. Also very friendly towards the kids to help them know they are safe. My kid overcame her fear of heights within the first 30 minutes of her session. I was very impressed and thanked the staff personally for my experience and helping her and making her feel so safe and comforted she will definitely remember this day. The safety briefing was very informative and staff are surprisingly very good at making sure kids are being quiet and listening to the rules in the training room to ensure everyone is kept safe. We will definitely be back! Thank you so much clip n climb Chelsea

I went to a few clip n climb but this one had very kind and supportivw staff. They patiently encouraged childrem and help thrm to secure themselves to each climb. Locklan is a fantastic and patient support for all children anxious to confident. He asks their names and give them tips yo improve. My son tried a lot of walls thanks to his support.

I like going there with the children. Even the 4 year old has good fun there and got to join in after initial hesitation. I really liked the discount they had on over the last half term break. At c £22 per person, a climbing trip for the family sets you back a meaningful amount. Maybe there could be different charging models like you buy 10 sessions at a discount and use them up (like is common in other climbing centres)? Would make it more attractive for regular customers and build loyalty.
