My son and I had a brilliant morning tree climbing with Steve and Paul. Both were incredibly patient, with me and my 8 year old. We felt safe and comfortable in our harnesses and had plenty of time to get to grips with the knots involved and have a go climbing different areas of the tree. The flapjacks were also a huge bonus! My son said this was the best part of our stay, by miles! Thank you
I took a group of 10 year olds this week and they had a fab time. From start to finish the instructors were calm, clear, so helpful and encouraging with the climbers. Their way of teaching about the ropes, knots and how to use the tree is easy to listen to and follow. The instructors remembered every child’s name and used them to communicate from the ground-up! There was a great mix of challenge to suit all abilities. I enjoyed watching them laughing and chatting up in the branches. Looking forward to our next visit. Thank you.
My boys and I had the best last day on the beautiful Isle of Wight thanks to Goodleaf Tree Climbing at the start of Cowes week too. As a single mum it was great to enjoy the experience too as I love the outdoors and boys were nervous at first (ASD family) The guys were so reassuring and friendly we managed to climb for the whole hour we had booked, which was an amazing result. Plus the offer of taking some photos on my phone for me was an added bonus as we had no one else with us to do that! Thank you so much, we have now experienced what we saw at Godshill model village too (it’s shown there and that’s where I found out about this)
⸻ 🌳 Tree Climbing Review – 5/5 Stars My son recently tried the tree climbing experience and it was incredible! From the moment we arrived, the instructors were welcoming, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. They gave a thorough safety briefing and made sure everyone was comfortable with the gear and basic techniques before they began. The tree itself was stunning and a great choice of tree to climb, suitable for all age ranges and capabilities. Another thing to add was how well organised all the equipment was. We will back again soon.
I visit Goodleaf Tree Climbing every year with a class of children and every year they deliver a fantastic experience. The team are brilliant with our young climbers and clearly passionate and expert in their field. All safety processes and steps to climb are clearly and effectively explained. The children get a chance to rehearse the skills before they leave the ground and vanish into the canopy. When my own children are older, this is definitely an experience they would love and I hope to keep on visiting Goodleaf with the children I work with in the interim. Fabulous activity run by a fabulous team. A must do if visiting the Isle of Wight.
