A huge thanks to the booking office, who went the extra mile to slot us in when our original dates were fully booked. Our coach, Andy, was excellent—very patient, engaging, and a great teacher. We both learned a lot and had a lot of fun in a beautiful woodland setting. Highly recommend Bowhunter Archery Woodland Adventures to anyone looking for a great day out! · via Google [Tanya T](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/105362260777905293508/reviews) ★★★★★ Andy is a wonderful teacher!! He was very patient in teaching us beginners, and made an effort to make it an interesting and fun experience! He has a setup with special ordered dinosaur and zombie figurines to practice shooting our arrows at (specifically for the Woodland archery session). We were very touched by his kindness to complete a full session despite us being a few minutes late, and overall he is clearly passionate about archery and the outdoors. We are so glad we booked this activity during our trip to Inverness and would highly recommend it. Andy was one of our favorite people we met on our trip to Scotland · via Google [NIK LAIDLAW MUSIC](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/116422238747882348853/reviews) ★★★★★ My nephew and myself had a wonderful time. Extremely friendly and welcoming staff and just so helpful. He's had the best day. Thank you so much we will be back · via Google [Bernadette Mairead](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/103470124177415742661/reviews) ★★★★★ We had the best date going as a couple for the 90minute archery experience - never done archery before but our guide was an amazing teacher and super encouraging so we got lots of hits. Loved the whole experience and it flew by! Also arrived 10 mins late due to traffic and they were super understanding AND we accidentally paid cash before realising we had a voucher and they refunded us so very very generous of them. Highly recommend and we'll be back · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x488f7f67dd151d09:0x62079c236377c481!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** Balnagowan Woods, B9092, Nairn, IV2 7QX [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=57.5714349%2C-3.9706926) **Category** Adventure & Activity Centres **Guest rating** 5.0 / 5 (172 reviews) **Suitable for** Ages 9+ **Setting** Outdoor **Destination** Nairn [More attractions in Nairn](https://staycation.co.uk/nairn/attractions) ★ 5.0 (172 reviews) [Visit official website](https://www.bowhunterarchery.co.uk/?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=attraction) [07923 111997](tel:07923111997) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Nairn **Postcode** IV2 7QX **Payment** Cards, Contactless **Plus Code** 9C9RH2CH+HP [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x488f7f67dd151d09:0x62079c236377c481!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x488f7f67dd151d09:0x62079c236377c481!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x488f7f67dd151d09:0x62079c236377c481!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Nairn Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
