It’s here again (Where did 2019 go? Seriously?!) and perhaps you’ve already stocked up on this year’s Christmas presents and hidden them right here with us at Rent A Space (We won’t peek, we promise!). But let’s say you’re still collecting presents, and worse than that, you’re fresh out of ideas for what to buy.
These days present-buying has become a challenge. No more can you simply rely on an abundance of CDs, DVDs and books to take away the effort of thinking. Now you actually have to think up some original ideas for yourself. The good news is that we’ve done the thinking for you in the 2019 gift guide. And better still, all these gifts are available online or right near our Battlefield Shrewsbury premises.

FOR KIDS AND BIG KIDS
Memory Making at Climbing the Walls
It’s not what you get but what you get to do that make Christmas memories. Do you remember every gift you’ve ever received? Probably not, but chances are you will have some recollection of a special day out. Make your holidays unforgettable with a trip to Climbing the Walls with your family, partner or a group of friends. Not got time? Then give your loved ones something to look forward to during the bitter winter. Climbing the Walls has one-hour £10 taster sessions after 3pm this holiday, and children’s Action Walls passes for £12 when you book with the code CTWXMAS19.
Woote Space Academy
If you’re on-board with the “experiences not things” mentality, but you can’t envisage your beloved on climbing walls, if they prefer action through the filter of a TV monitor, then purchase them a trip to Woote Space Academy, where you can sample a selection of space-themed VR experiences from drones to full-motion flights. Travel the galaxy without leaving Battlefield Road. Complete with all the thrills and spills of a theme park and zero danger, this is a must for all armchair adventurers. Check out the experiences available.
