Good website info & easy booking

Good website with all the info and easy to book. Booking documents clear and waiver attached. Welcoming and professional greeting and bike all ready to go. Really top mountain bike. Had a great time on trails. Recommend.

1:1 Coaching with Brendan Berry

1:1 Coaching with Brendan Berry - Amazing! My 16 yr old absolutely loves the summit and goes out on the trails for coaching too. Always organised and a jam packed session. His riding and skills have improved massively.
Very very tiny moan - booking multiple 1:1 sessions on the website is quite hard and has to be done 1 at a time.

Today

Today, I had a 1:1 coaching session with Aidan. I'm an experienced rider, but Aidan brought on my jumping and cornering quite a bit further. He's knowledgeable, skilled, and a patient and clear coach. Loved the day. Great value, top quality coaching.
Highly recommended.

An amazing evening

An amazing evening. My son and my first trip to the Summit at Swinley, we arrived early and were immediately looked after. The team talked us through the setup. Seemless bike and kit hire, lots of fun on the trails. Very friendly and encouraging employees and fellow riders. Added bonus of pizza night... couldn't of been better. We will be back

Hooked again

Struggled to book online (problems at my end) so turned up and hoped for the best. Was lucky and my daughter and I hired out 2 bikes for 2 hours. Haven't done offroad cycling for years. The bikes were excellent. The trails were great fun and the whole park is gorgeous! Great team, great bikes. Think I'm hooked again.

Five stars for Swinley Bike Hub!

The whole organisation for our group was absolutely perfect. The 3 coaches accompanying us were impressively knowledgeable, friendly, professional and went above and beyond in providing a superb service.
We all had a great time. Thank you!

Whyte T-140 at Swinley bike hub

The bike hub booking system and staff are excellent. When I ordered a bike I asked about pedals and Will put on a set of gusset pedals with pins that meant I had good grip. I loved the ride of the bike, it was playful and poppy, smoothing trail chatter and making jumps super fun. I found myself going way faster with the same effort as on my GT Zaskar LT hardtail. I sessioned some of the red trails to test the bike and myself - I reached my limits before the bike reached it's. Swinley trails and the facilities there are awesome. That's why I keep coming back.
