Reviews
I took my 4 grandchildren and they described this as “The best day out EVER!”
They had a 90 minute game of laser tag in a woodland setting, 2 x15 minute karting sessions and then they tried the archery.
Before going home they begged for another go at the Karting and loved it.
The staff were all great and good fun, while being very safety conscious too.
We will visit again in a heartbeat!
