A wonderful place to climb. Staff are always welcoming and lovely when signing you in. The routes are always varied keeping you in your toes even in grades you are usually comfortable climbing. There is an updated section every week to keep things fresh, and a gym space for additional working out. Thoroughly recommended anyone, climber or not, to visit.

If I had a billion pounds and could build my own gym, this is exactly what I would build. An immaculate, air-conditioned lobby and cafe (my wife says it's the most comfortable climbing gym cafe she's ever sat in - and that's from a sample of about 20!); an attractive, well-stocked shop; large, clean, open changing rooms; a single large room for the bouldering [edit: the owner points out there's also more bouldering, training boards and a gym downstairs!] ; two top-out icebergs in the centre; a cave; and a comp wall! Also the staff were really friendly, smiling and genuine, and parking was available at the front and back. Not just 5/5, this is a definite 10/10 gym.

Excellent climbing gym, fantastic facilities and climbs. Been coming here since moving to Bristol after trying a few out. Always a good difficulty range within grade bands to test yourself with. Having both tension and moon boards on site are great as well. Can get busy at times but always plenty of parking available and the staff are lovely.

Love The Mothership. I've climbed in every centre on Bristol and TCA's venues remain my favourite. Friendly staff, tasty cakes, great problems and a variety of areas. The route setting is thoughtful, often includss decent problem solving over pure strength. The gym is well equipped for training 💪

Great bouldering centre and climbing gym. Its got a fantastic vibe with a wide range of ages participating regularly. Setting is probably harder than other Bristol bouldering gyms but more realistic. Upstairs has two top out boulders and a modern comp wall. Downstairs has was the original bouldering area but is low. There is a well equipped weights gym there too. Staff a friendly and helpful.
