Great facility, was really popular but still had enough space for as a family with 2 kids under 9, glad to see it well used. Skates hired were fine, cafe onsite too

Fantastic and quirky Ice Rink. We go here to watch my daughter play Ice Hockey. The people who run the venue are really supportive. Has a fantastic cafe but I believe the people running currently are moving on. Which is a real shame because the service and food was of a really good quality.

Had a great time with the family at the ice rink. Only down side was they don't have any little frames for the little ones to hold onto when just learning. Great little place and the cafe was excellant.
