Our kids (8 and 10) have been coming here for over a year. The staff are great with them, they give lots of encouragement, work to each child’s strengths, and the teaching is really good. The facilities are excellent - the height & size of the old church building means it’s a great & varied challenge for climbers of all ages & experience. Coffee is great too! Highly recommend.

Wigan Roller Rink

Massive wooden floored roller rink with snack bar, cafe, licenced bar and on site skate shop. Large free car park, disabled access and toilet. Full Roller Disco and lights. Hire skates available

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.

Tandle Hill Country Park

Reviewed By stevenb108 - Oldham, United Kingdom

The weather has picked up,i hate walking in the rain,so after setting off from Chadderton,I'd decided on Tandle Hills. It takes me just over an hour of walking to get there,from Royton, Rochdale road looks so long,then you turn onto Tandle Hill road & that's another long walk,it may have been cold,but by now i've warmed up. Reaching the gates,my final goal was the monument up at the top,this looks out all across Oldham,Rochdale,Manchester & a far,especially on a good clear day.(this wasn't one) Then it's only one way & that's down,i took the steps,careful when wet,when you reach the bottom, still a few different ways to go. On this occasion while i was heading back,i had two deer run out in front of me,i never knew they were up there.. Making my way back,plenty of others walking & using the park. There is a cafe,with outdoor seating,but today it was closed,take your own it's probably cheaper.. Overall at this current time it's a place to let your problems & thoughts blow in the breeze.

Great local park. The size is not apparrent as you approach. Wonderful natural woodland, unspoilt and allowed to develop as nature intended. Quite a climb up the hill but well worth it.

When on a visit this Sunday. Very clean and the gardens and plants were nice. The glasshouse and observatory were being done up and will be lovely when finished. A boating lake with cafe was very busy and I noticed a lot of statues of local people in this park. Definitely worth a visit.
