Archery
Technology might have moved on, but why not master one of the most ancient hunting styles - archery. Line up your bow, see the arrow flying through the air, and hit the target - easy right?
During your 45-minute session, you'll learn shooting techniques from our helpful and friendly staff and have some fun along the way. Once you've mastered the basics you'll be putting your skills to the test in a (friendly!) competition.
Taking place at the Tournament Field, our archery experience is suitable for ages over 8. While we welcome all wannabe bow-people, anyone under-14 must be accompanied by an adult, even if they're not taking part in the activity.
