Comments from some of our recent guests.......

Ben Browne Portland one to one guiding 2008

I thought you might like to know that I've really taken on board all the tips you imparted during the coaching weekend I had with you at Portland in December. I've managed to put it all to good use and in the last few weeks at Brean down, I've climbed a 6a+ onsight and redpointed 2 6b+s and a 6c! The most important lesson was the methodical and structured approach to preparing for each climb. It's now second nature and really helps me get in the right frame of mind.

Anyway. Thought you might like to know that your coaching appears to have worked wonders!

I just wanted to say what an absolutely awesome time we had. You and Rich and all the other visitors at the house made our stay perfect and were all vowing to come back for longer in the year.

Five unforgettable days of climbing. The skills of the skilled, the experience of the experienced and the feeling of safety that goes with the serious mind has allowed me to fully enjoy the ignorance of the novice!

I have climbed routes I would never have thought I could and on the way forgot all about the world around me.  Can there be a better way to recreate? I donīt think so.

I hope The Orange House stays the way it is for a very long time.

Awesome place. Been to this area before but hadnīt scratched the surface. The Orange Team showed the way!

Did some of the best routes I have ever done, and seen some even more better ones - Iīll be back.

Big thanks to those at The Orange House for making this trip something a bit special.

What a day it was!!! My husband canīt believe the bruises and thinks I am mad showing them off as badges of bravery!! Perhaps not entirely "enjoyable" but something equally as important... challenging and immensely rewarding...maybe that counts as enjoyable, then?

I look forward to a return holiday. Your company on the crag was wonderful... thank you for your support and good advice.

Sam, just like to say thanks for a great weekend and for organising everything. It was a total escape. Your place is fantastic and totally relaxed. Hope to see you again next year to defend the El Bandito Trophy.
