  • "ben Rippon very knowledgable and excellent teacher. The small group numbers ensured we all had individual time and personalised tuition which i have noticed does not often happen in a larger group. Hence improvemnt was fantastic. Another improver level course for advancemnt would be good with same instructor for contimuity."

  • "Charlie attended a gorge walking course yesterday & has been raving about it ever since. I think it is very important to inspire kids at his age and Dan & Ollie (hopefully I've remembered names correctly, apologies if not) did just that. Please thank them both very very much.
    On a side note if there was a locals discount/reward system it would be wonderful, so that we could afford more days like these. I truly think they are extremely good value though so am not complaining at all. "
