Welcome to the Castle

Welcome to our community. 

The Castle was the result of a dream for us to have somewhere we could climb, meet friends and have a good time.

Over the last 30 years we have transformed the Castle from a dilapidated former Water Pumping Station into the Climbing Walls, Training facilities, Gym, Café, Shop and Garden you will find here today.

Save the date: July 19th – The Castle's Summer Garden Party. This annual event celebrates the community that connects our climbing with our outdoor spaces. Expect stalls and crafts, food, climbing comps, open auto belay and top rope sessions, tours and workshops in the garden and lots more. With DJs keeping the vibes going out front and space for relaxing in the back, this family-friendly event is truly a special time for us. Running from 12 until 6pm, no ticket needed.
