Leah climbing one of the new problems in the bouldering reset! The whole reset is now complete, thanks to Leah, Liam, Ant, and Ollie

User

If you have any projects on the current bouldering set, you'd better get them done soon as we have a full bouldering reset next week from 29th Aug-31st Aug! We've got a very special guest setter too - she's a 3 time British Bouldering champ and her set last year was one of our most popular... can you guess who it is? First one to guess correctly gets a free bag of chalk!

User

Don't forget we're closing tomorrow at 18:00 because of the bank holiday!

User

Went to a 'Come and give it a go' session yesterday and it was brilliant best £10 I have ever spent. Jason our instructor was brilliant got us to try all sorts of walls more than I would have imagined on a first experience, cannot wait to go back and conquer those walls.

User

Went for a taster session. Had a great time. Bill was our coach and he was very welcoming and a good laugh. Would definitely recommend it and it didn't cost that much!!

User

Went along to the taster session last night and had a brilliant time. All the staff were very welcoming, Our instructor was Anna, she was very friendly, very professional and ensured we all had a really good time, definitely plan on coming back soon! Thanks for a very fun night! Keep up the good work �

User

We had my son's 9th birthday party � there today and it was fantastic ! Their instructor was Toby and he gave all the boy's confidence and did an amazing job ! The food was also great fresh, delicious the brownies were a massive hit! So thank you Toby and the rest of staff at Boulders for a great day ! We will be back ! !

User

We came for our daughter's 9th birthday party today. The staff were brilliant and the children had a really good time. The staff ensured that the children were safe and also the they got the best out if their experience. The party food was delicious, and the room provided was also perfect. Thank you very much!

User

We are wsk2 in cavc colleges we want to Say Thank you for the people who help us to climbing the ropes and to get our confidence

User

Visited Boulders last night and took part in an adult taster session. I am so glad that I did. I had a blast; the instructor was excellent (thanks Anna!) and very patient and it was really nice to be able to take part in a group, even if we began as strangers, who were all fantastic at cheering me on! Excellent value for money. I was impressed with just how many different kinds of walls there were to climb. Thank you Boulders for a lovely evening.

User

Just had my daughter's birthday party , staff was fantastic from start to finish, couldn't help us enough. Would highly recommend as children all enjoyed themselves .

User

I think Boulders is excellent. ALL the staff here are always really friendly and happy to help. In particular Simon, Richard and Anna but everyone else working there is great too. There is a fantastic mix of boulder problems, circuits and routes which are regularly changed to keep you interested. I worked in a climbing wall for ten years. I honestly feel if I could go back in time I would be able to do a better job after seeing the quality of work which is done here.

Thumbs up 👍

User

I did the taster course and loved it this is defiantly the best place ever!! I will be replacing the gym with this place hands down. I got the climbing bug

User

I came on the 27th 18:30 July for the adult Taster course, we had a brilliant time and will be returning for the adult training classes thanks too our instructor Ally, She was amazing and gave us a warm welcome she was friendly, encouraging and set both of us plenty of challenges.



Great Stuff Defiantly Recommend Going!!



Ask For Ally!

Having never even thought of climbing before due to my fear of heights my fiancée, whom is an avid climber, persuaded me to give it a try. The staff at reception were extremely helpful and very reassuring, giving me all the information I needed. Once there I was still apprehensive about it all but our instructor Toby (correct me on his name if I am wrong, my memory is terrible!) was excellent. It was a really fun group session and at the end I was hooked. Giving it another go next week! Highly recommended!

User

Fantastic experience at Boulders on Sat 17 Sept.

We brought UNITY - the young people's forum from Newport for a team building session and introduction to climbing.

All the staff were amazing, so friendly and couldn't have done enough for us. They made sure we had everyhting we needed, sorting our lunches, drinks out and any equipment we needed. Thanks Chris & all staff at the cafe for taking the bookings and helping us to have a great time.



We'll be back! Cheers & Happy Climbing.....Kate, Resident Engagement Team, Newport City Homes

Another great day with the kids here today. Instructors were so helpful and great fun. Had a great chat with a lady that was there also. Should have asked for her number!

User

Really friendly staff. Awesome place for all abilities. Will definitely come back �

User

Great climbing center! Allowed me to put in some time for conditioning even while I’m traveling - would be nicer if the heating was more evenly distributed. I would definitely go back.

User

Climbing isn't really my thing but i did enjoy it. Also, the staff are really nice there. I would recommend to anyone who's interested in trying out climbing.

User

There's so much potential to the place. I'm hoping they'll bring in more features on the walls, more texture and colours to hone hold searching and pinnacles/ stalactites like Red point in Bristol to really improve the experience
