Joe B's thoughts on Climbing with The Tower Climbing Centre13 October 2022
If your looking to climb with ropes then this place is for you, as it focuses 80% on lead climbing (roped). Even though its got a slight old school look, the quality is there!

If you want to try rope climbing I'd highly recommend going to the tower. There's a range option available from Bouldering, to lower walls for learning rope climbing and the tower for taking it further. Great options for more experienced climbers too in the tower.

Great friendly staff and a cracking place that provide nice introductions to the fast growing sport. Small bouldering area and a separate area for lead climbing with a few top ropes to keep you busy.
