​My partner and I booked a last-minute archery session today, and the entire experience was fantastic from start to finish. Booking online was a breeze, and the confirmation email gave us all the details we needed. We arrived a bit early, were warmly greeted, and had time to grab a drink before starting. ​Since it was a quiet 4:00 PM slot, it felt like a wonderful, personal experience. My partner had a little childhood holiday experience, but I was a complete beginner. Our instructor, Mike, was absolutely brilliant. He got us set up, gave clear instructions, and provided great pointers on our form throughout with zero pressure. ​Mike really contributed to making it such an amazing time. Adventure Now offers so many activities that we will definitely be returning to try more. Huge thanks to all the staff, and especially to Mike!

We had an amazing morning with our instructor Mike on the archery range. Complete novices, Mike was really friendly and helped us get to grips with the basics whilst also having a good laugh with us. We can't wait to come back later in the year for another activity - we promise to be better at it next time! Brilliant location, very scenic and easy to get to.

We had such a brilliant time doing the air rifle shooting! It was so much fun from start to finish, and the whole experience was really well organised. A special shoutout to Rhys, our guide, who was absolutely fantastic! He was friendly, patient, encouraging and made us feel comfortable even when we were complete beginners. He explained everything clearly, gave us great tips and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. We had such a laugh and would 100% recommend this experience to anyone looking for something fun and different to do. We’ll definitely be back! Thank you, Rhys, for being such a great guide! Hazira

Had a brilliant couple of hours at adventure now today. We did Pistols shooting with Ryan who was really friendly and informative and made sure we knew what to do but also that we had a lot of fun. We then did archery with Mark who was an equally great instructor and we had some great competition between us. Mark also makes a cracking cup of tea! Highly recommend the place and thanks to both Ryan and Mark for making it so memorable.
