Archery: We offer both a Target Archery range and a Woodland Archery range, providing outdoor experiences for archery enthusiasts of all skill levels. If you're new to archery, we recommend booking our 'Introduction to Archery' session led by a certified Archery GB instructor. During this approximately 1-hour session, you'll be introduced to the basics of archery with a strong focus on safety and enjoyment. Once you feel confident and have completed the initial practice course, the session continues with a leisurely walk through our woodland course, where you'll take aim at a variety of animal-shaped targets. This entire experience is designed to be both challenging and fun, and we guarantee it will leave you hooked on archery.
Air Guns: Experience the thrill of shooting with a range of guns at our breathtaking outdoor woodland range.

Springfield Farm is located off Ventura Park Industrial Estate. Once you turn into the industrial estate, drive straight for 150 yards and as the road bends 90 degrees to the left, stop your car: you will see a bridleway right in front of you with a 'Private road. No access' signpost. Drive onto this private road, over the railway bridge and keep to the left. Follow this road to the very end where you will see a large manor house. Please park up in the grass car park to the left and call us. Your instructor will come and greet you.
