Swain's Centre

Fantastic experience: Smashing crew here. Was with them from CBT up to MOD 2. Can't fault them in the slightest. All the instructors are really knowledgeable, and know how to work on your flaws and don't waste your time. if I could use them again I would. Thanks everyone!

Fantastic experience: We were very grateful to Sharon for squeezing my lad in for lessons after being let down by a new instructor to the area. After 10 lessons he disappeared off the face of the earth. She immediately picked up on the issues he needed to work on and 4 weeks later he passed his test. Thank you so much.

Fantastic experience: Learned and took CBT test under Rob Jones, great tutoring and lots of fun learning to ride. Looking forward to coming back to refresh/go for the full licence in the future.

Fantastic experience: I completed my motorbike lessons and test with Swains. They were excellent. Would recommend

Fantastic experience: Did my CBT and currently doing my Mod 1 training with Swains. Excellent instructors who want you to succeed and be safe on the roads

Fantastic experience: Best driving instructor in Buxton

Fantastic experience: I couldn't say enough good things about Swains they are brilliant. I have done my CBT with them and I'm currently doing my MOD 1 and loving every minute of it. They have also put my house guest from Ukraine through her CBT and they have been absolutely fantastic not to mention generous. If you want to learn to ride a bike safely and competently this is the place to go, consummate professionals and very patient. Update: I've now completed my Mod 2 and got my full licence. My experience with Swains and their level of service from start to finish has been exemplary, I couldn't think of anyone else I would have preferred to do my training with. Thanks Swains, I'll be back soon when my MOT is due on my big boy bike

Fantastic experience: Fantastic bike school - did my CBT/Mod1/Mod2 here and passed everything first time thanks entirely to the approachable yet really thorough coaching from Alan, Jon and Kurt. Could not recommend enough to anyone in the area.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant friendly staff wouldn’t recommend anywhere else did my CBT / DAS

Fantastic experience: Great group of people. Instructors are very patient and offer good advice (take it) for first time riders. Did my CBT there and got a 125 for a year so I could learn the roads in England. I plan on going back for the next license in July or August. They also have a little cafe and shop upstairs for gear and some basic maintenance.

Fantastic experience: Went for my renewal CBT yesterday and had a fantastic time very friendly staff I highly recommend anyone to go here

Fantastic experience: Professional, friendly, and accommodating staff, fantastic facility, great bikes - focussed on safety, and the instructors go out of their way to instil confidence would highly recommend for any training course ( did my CBT midweek which not a lot of other centres offer).

Fantastic experience: From CBT to Mod 2 Swain's have been excellent. A really relaxed environment to learn in, with great advice and instruction, helping me progress in skill, confidence and most importantly safely navigate the roads on two wheels by knowing what to watch out for.

Fantastic experience: Top class tuition, Alan and Karen guided three of us through the whole process right from CBT to Part 2. All passed first time and learnt loads, highly recommend the team

Fantastic experience: Really nice guy who helped me out very much Thankyou

Fantastic experience: Very good very pleasant would recomend

Fantastic experience: Passed first time with swains today couldn't of done it without Karen she's very patient and knew how to make me feel calm thank you so much

Fantastic experience: very Polite Instructors They Take there Time with you And Very Kind And Would reccomend This CBT centre 10/10

Fantastic experience: I would like to give a massive thank you to Swains as I have now passed both my Module 1 and Module 2 tests in the space of 2 days, both on the first attempt. And that is purely because of the quality of training I received there. I would also like to extend an enormous thank you to both Kurt and Alan, as they went out of their way to pick me up from a local hotel I was staying at to ensure I was able to do both my tests, I feel any other place would not have been so courteous.

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience with swains motorcycle training completing my A motorbike licence. All the staff are great, very professional, honest and friendly. Would definatley recommend them to anybody who is interested in starting there motorcycle journey. Thanks again

Fantastic experience: Great experience, extremely patient and great food, I would 100% recommend to anyone with experience of riding, or anyone who’s wanting to learn

Fantastic experience: Went to Swains having previously had very poor service from another company. Very impressed indeed. They were friendly, through, very patient and professional. I wouldn’t definitely recommend them, especially for a young person doing their first CBT.

Fantastic experience: I just did my 3rd CBT with Swains Centre last week, the entire family is amazing, everyone is friendly, forgiving and understanding if you make a mistake. With them having so much experience I can't imagine that you could find better instructors.

Fantastic experience: Second CBT at swains. Great instructors patient and happy to deal with questions. Learnt a lot today that I hadn't picked up over the years before.

Fantastic experience: Just completed my full bike licence with them and they were amazing, very friendly, really knowledgeable and genuinely seemed invested in my learning experience. Would 100% recommend them whether you just want to do your CBT or complete your full licence. Thanks guys!!!

Fantastic experience: All the staff were great , especially John , who was my instructor. Very knowledgeable, patient, and professional. Everyone made a nervous lady feel more confident and I had an enjoyable experience completing my CBT. Thank you Team.

Fantastic experience: Thanks for my trailer test.

Fantastic experience: Magnificent service

Fantastic experience: Great session, really friendly guys

Negative experience: Staff didn't seem like they wanted to be there. Karts weren't in very good condition, didn't seem to be equal power which made the racing unfair. The lap times didn't work, so we didn't know where we came or our lap times. On the other hand the track was good.

Fantastic experience: The motorcycle lessons are excellent, the instuctors are great and have amazing knowledge to show you the things you don't see, the price is very good compared to the ones where i live in stoke,the location is perfect with most lessons taking you over cat and fiddle to Macclesfield, its amazing experience everytime you step onto one of there bikes. I would highly recommended them.

Negative experience: Disappointed that the karts didn't have seat belts and I ended up falling out and breaking my arm. Some training would have been beneficial. I would not recommend this place unless you are experienced drivers.

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend doing your cbt here wasn't the most confident on a geared bike so they let me do an extra 30mins getting used to them as they new I was getting a geared bike everybody was super friendly and had some great advice thankyou very much

Positive experience: Great track and reasonable prices.

Fantastic experience: Nice little track great and nice friendly staff

Fantastic experience: BEEN THREE TIMES NOW AND NEVER BEEN DISAPPOINTED. £15 FOR 15 MINUTES IS ABOUT RIGHT COMPARED TO MOST OTHER KARTING TRACKS. QUALITY HELMETS,RACE SUITS AND KARTS THEMSELVES ARE GREAT. TRACK IS BIGGER THAN IT LOOKS AND....ALTHOUGH SOUNDS DAFT....GO WHEN IT'S WET/DAMP....EVEN BETTER EXPERIENCE. STAFF FRIENDLY ENOUGH AND ENSURE YOU ARE AWARE OF THE SAFETY RULES ETC. WELL WORTH GOING.
