  • "Axe throwing was fun for 30 mins, don't need an hour."

  • "Left without us, pocketed the deposit."

Activities and Facilities

Pros:

  • "Fantastic time with my 14 year old son, you really get to open the quads up and the tracks are challenging and fun."
  • "Loads of fun and very much recommended."
  • "Fantastic quad biking this morning in the rain. It made the puddles deeper and muddier and literally filled my boots!"
  • "Quad bike safari 29/7/23 a brilliant experience, so much fun."
  • "The group was nice & small, 4 of them not including Shaun. It was a great experience for grandad & grandaughter to share."
  • "Very knowledgeable on all things related to the activities!"
  • "Fabulous couple of hours of Segway Safari, brilliant to do with your teenager to get them out from their electronics!"

Cons:

  • "They make regular stops during the safari to make sure that everyone in the party are ok."
  • "We did the Segway Adventure which was great fun. The experience was well organised from start to finish."
  • "We also tried clay pigeon shooting, it was really good fun, can't wait to go again."
  • "Shout out to ollie at archery for keeping score and teaching the bad ones how to aim good!"
  • "Karts don't run evenly so not much point in timing. Also the track is wet and slower at the start so not much point in timing again."
  • "The ultimate quad safari of 75 minutes includes 16 minutes of instructional video."
  • "Poorly organised mess - don’t book!"
