5.00Way more fun than throwing axes has any business being! Joe was a fantastic guide for our stag do group. Everyone had a marvellous time and some people realise they had skills they didn’t know they had!

5.00Boss took us here for a staff do and we had such an awesome time! Lloyd our trainer was enthusiastic, knowledgable and the perfect host. There were a few who were a bit nervous about it at the start, but the training and set up is so good that every single one of them by the end was beaming and had managed to hit the bullseye. Good vibes all around, great venue, great staff, seriously just cannot recommend it enough!
Accessible fun
