“I took my son who wanted to try bouldering to City Bouldering Stratford. The staff were very welcoming and sign up was easy. It is a very spacious place with different levels of climbing and shoes can be hired. They do social events and when we went it was quite a busy day even on a Sunday. There is a cafe and places to sit and eat. I have to say it was very cold in there. It's a good place to start a new hobby.”
