Reviewed By SB13X - Wigan, United Kingdom
Have been nearly every week where possible over the past couple of months, been with all the family, brought my Mum who is in her 50s as she used to come back in the 80s, got my brothers and my sister-in-law involved too as well as my own 3 children. They all love it, advise arriving between 11-12 to allow younger more inexperienced skaters to acclimatise before it starts getting busy at weekends. Thursday day skate quieter for confidence building for adults. Evening sessions just as good with dedicated speed skates for varying experiences/ages. Works great for tiring out the little ones. Cafe prices reasonable, no longer any lockers but for a £1 they store your belongings in a numbered box and supply you with the corresponding chit. Can access any time from the Skate Hire booth. Hire Skates are okay and Inline & Quads are available. However some skates have faulty buckles but will be replaced if possible with a good pair. Staff friendly including Liv in the Skates Unlimited Shop (name taken from till receipt) who helped me buy a pair of quads for my daughter.My Mum & youngest daughter have both received one to one tuition/help when quiet when obviously they are more approachable. As for me it got me back into skating after a 15 year hiatus from playing hockey and competing at Deeside and I'm lovin it.
