We provide fun and informative archery lessons no matter your level of expertise! From the absolute beginner to Robin Hood...you will be taught under the expert tuition and supervision of one of our qualified instructors. Lessons are available 7 days a week 10am til 7pm (not Christmas day or News Years day) starting at 15 minutes and going up to the hour. In May 2007 we opened our Falconry Centre to run in conjunction with the archery lessons. We now have 33 birds of prey in total, and that number is increasing all the time! We provide displays daily, and also birds of prey experience days for those who want to learn more. Also, in the future we will hopefully be able to provide apprenticeships in falconry...watch this space!
Archery and Falconry are fun activies for the whole family (6 years of age and up), and also suitable for those with special needs or disabilities. Arrows, Talons and Tea for a Tenner!
In the afternoons (5pm in summer, 3pm in winter) we change our schedule from just archery lessons to our package of Arrows, Talons and Tea. This comprises of a taster session of archery (12 arrows each), tea, cakes and biscuits and then we fly the birds of prey. During the display you will have the chance to hold a hawk or owl if you wish, and the grand finale is a thrilling flight by one of our falcons. This deal lasts approximately 2 hours and costs only £10 per person. If it is pouring down outside we can do everything inside! Booking essential.
