An opportunity to try this ancient sport using modern, safe and easy to use equipment.
Even starting with no knowledge we are confident that you will achieve a good score by the end of the session.
An experienced instructor will guide you through the art of using a recurve longbow (a normal bow and arrow!) at our 100 acre activity centre in Warwick.
A series of practice arrows will allow the basics to be mastered before the session moves on to a competition round (usually 9 arrows per person).
Throughout the duration of the event most participants will see a real improvement in their accuracy and ability. Most people begin with no experience and can only just get an arrow on target – by the end of the session some impressive scores can be achieved.
All participants need to be 10 years old or over. Those aged under 16 years need to be accompanied by an adult at all times.
All Archery sessions are booked in advance – we don’t offer any “turn up and shoot” sessions.
Your session includes
The archery range is equipped with full sized high density foam target bosses faced with Olympic specification target faces.
The shooting positions are fully covered, in case of poor weather, to provide a comfortable area to learn to shoot.
Modern recurve archery bows are used that are suitable for most participants - we have right and left handed bows and there is no requirement for strength as the bows have a low draw weight.

Who can take part?
- All participants must be 10 years old or over and at least 147 cm tall (58 inches). The bows used are light weight and are easy to draw back reducing the need for too much strength to take part.

If you have ever seen a hovercraft flying, you will have wished that you could have a go - now you can!
Flying a foot off the ground, our Flying Fish Snapper hovercraft are easy to drive, and exhilarating enough for hardened thrill seekers!
During the event each participant will receive full tuition on how to fly our hovercraft before progressing to a large course to put the machine through its paces, experiencing the excitement of power sliding around the corners at high speed!
Adventure Sports offer hour-long experience sessions that are suitable for groups of between two and six people.
Your session includes
Hovercraft use a cushion of air to float above the ground.
Our single seater Snapper craft use a large fan, powered by a 28 hp four-stroke Briggs and Stratton Vanguard petrol engine, to draw in air and force it underneath the body of the machine. This air is retained by a 'skirt' made from a tough nylon material that allows the whole craft to fly one foot above the ground. The fan also propels the hovercraft forward at speeds of up to 25 mph.

Segway

A great outdoor countryside adventure!
If you are looking for a really unusual experience you must give Segways a try! These computer controlled, battery powered, gyroscope balancing vehicles have proved to be hugely popular in the USA and urban areas across the world. You stand upright on the Segway and then lean in the direction you want to go. The vehicle instantly reacts and gently propels you in the chosen direction.
Capable of up to 12.5 mph these are certainly not toys. You will learn to trust the vehicles technology and will need to overcome your initial desire to step off - the Segway will outperform you!
Your session includes
Suitable for 2 or 3 people and lasting a solid hour, you will ride your Segway across our 100 acre activity centre and then off into the picturesque surrounding Warwickshire countryside. The hour will start with an initial training session to get used to how the Segways operate. Then on to some gentle grass slopes and corners to boost your confidence.
After the basics have been mastered the trek proceeds up to our woodland area and out into the surrounding countryside.
The trek is suitable for either:
- Three adults
- Two adults
- Two adults and a child
- One adult and two children
- To take part you must be:
- Taller than 1.34 metres (4 foot 4½ inches)
- Between 45 and 117 kg in weight (7 - 18.5 stone)
- Not pregnant
Not suffering from any pre-existing or existing injury or any medical condition that prohibits participation in any sport/motorsport or other energetic pastime.
Segways are fairly straight forward to ride and most people will be confident with them within a few minutes. You don't need physical strength or driving experience.
