Quad biking at Ripley Castle is amazing, we had Rich as our instructor and he was top notch, chilled out, funny and relaxed and trusted you on the quads. If we ever do quad biking again, whichever site it is we will be requesting Rich as our instructor. He is a credit to the company. The quad biking is class, the route you go on has good challenges, good views and the terrain is great to go on. You can also get some speed up if you enjoy going a bit faster, would highly recommend and have already started doing so... thanks again Rich????

The climbing centre very kindly made space for my son and some friends to have a group session on the occasion of my son’s birthday when the planned party venue were unable to fulfil their booking. Despite the short notice it was a great hour of climbing and all those attending were engaged and had plenty of opportunities to climb. The staff are used to teaching kids and had plenty of strategies and tools to keep several ten year olds fully involved and encouraged to try their best at the various challenges. I want to thank Jonny, Josh and Emily who all helped rescue my son’s birthday party - really appreciate you all!

I've visited Harrosk8 many many times in the last year or so. The disco is great fun for all ages, with large families clearly welcome as well as those who go it alone. The staff are really friendly and helpful and will always help anyone who's a bit unsteady on skates. For £6 it's a bargain, an hour and a half of skating, funky lights, good music and hire of rollerskates from kids size 8 to adult 12s. Great fun, very friendly, certainly worth a go at least once, and if you're anything like me worth going many times!

Such a superb experience; the joy of wine, pizza and a film on the big screen, whilst sat on comfortable sofas, is unbeatable. The staff are so attentive, keen to ensure everyone has everything they need and so obliging to help. (Even the loos are immaculate!) A 5 Star experience, on every level.

I have had my little boys birthday party at Goose 2 years in the row and it has to be the best party venue , hosting and food I have seen . The staff are fabulous and always go the extra mile to ensure the party is bespoke and special for your child !! The food is fantastic for both adults and children and they even have an alcohol license which means parents can relax even more ( if you wish ). The decor is modern and the main thing is how clean the premises are with the open kitchen !!!! I will keep hosting parties here for years to come with my guests describing the parties as “epic “ “the best” and “outstanding” happy children = happy parents !!! Well done to everyone at Goose what a fantastic venue you have Amy. X
