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.

Fantastic facility and really, really friendly and helpful staff. My daughter is just getting into skateboarding and the coaching staff and shop staff were so encouraging and honest and helpful.

We are a cricket club based in Summerseat between Ramsbottom and Bury. We are members of the Greater Manchester Cricket League and have both junior and senior teams. Junior training night is Friday from 6:15pm and Seniors train on Tuesday nights also from 6:15pm. We are keen to become integral to Summerseat village life and be a hub of the community. We are now open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and have a fully licensed and recently refurbished bar. Please enquire about membership when you visit.

This is what Summerseat village has needed for a long time! The renovation makes the place unrecognisable and now the bar area has a real modern, cosy feel about it. Great selection of drinks available, lots of indoor and outdoor seating and kids and dogs are welcome. Makes for a great place to come and chill out at the weekends and really feel part of the local community. You can even get to watch a game of cricket (or footie on the TV) if you fancy it!

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.
6. Go Ape Rivington
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 198 reviews
Voted Best Tourism Experience at Lancashire and Blackpool Tourism Awards 2011 and nominated in the Visit Lancashire for Small Visitor Attraction in 2014. It's got to be one of Lancashire's best days out and that's not just us saying that (check out our feedback!). With breathtaking scenery, amazing tree top obstacles and awesome zip lines, Rivington is sure to be a day out in Lancashire you won't forget. You are guaranteed a warm welcome at Rivington Tree Top Adventure. It's home to one of the most exciting zip wires: You'll cross a bay in the reservoir and get a bird's eye view over the water. With its rugged hills, picturesque reservoirs and woodlands bustling with wildlife, Rivington is one of Lancashire's 'must visit' locations. A gem in its own right and on the doorstep of Manchester, one of the most vibrant cities in the UK.

My wife an I received gift vouchers last Christmas. Due to Covid, the activity was closed during the summer. We decided to wait until schools returned before booking our slot mid week. Each session accommodates up to 14 people. The instructors were friendly, knowledgable and engaging and everything felt clean and Covid friendly. A few simple procedures along the route ensured social distancing between groups and all participants were respectful to each other. So, what was the course like? It was an exhilarating couple of hours that we will be repeating next year. We arrived back home with a huge smile on our face. Anyone with a reasonable level of fitness will still be challenged. Those that dont participate in regular exercise will probably ache the following day. There are 5 sections and some offer a trickier option. All are very safe and well maintained. The 'Tarzan' swing at the end is a leap of faith (literally). If you are at the front of the pack (which we were), the aerial runway at the end of section 4 has an exit sign which we followed, thinking it was the end of the adventure. There is actually a final section that requires looping back into the woodland. This is not clearly signposted. We missed it and headed back. Fortunately, the team were 'on it' and realised our mistake. They re harnessed us and we completed the course.

Me and my little boy recently visited Box Football and we will be returning. The staff are friendly and helpful, there’s a great environment and the food was excellent. I had a panini, steak and cheese, called the Ronaldo. Presented beautifully and came with skin on chips and coleslaw which all tasted amazing.....I don’t have a single complaint! The facilities are to a high standard and I felt comfortable letting my little boy wander round enjoying himself. I would defiantly recommend this place.
