Five of us (men in our 40s and 50s) visited for a two hour air-soft shooting session. Jess, our instructor did a great job of running the lesson. Jess made sure we knew how to operate the guns and she was very attentive, giving us continual constructive guidance to help us get the most from the session. We used both pistols and semi-automatics, all converted to use CO2 cartridges to fire small round plastic ball bearings (hence the "BB gun" name) and we had a range of paper targets to practice on. The time trial at the end was a great way to end the evening. Would recommend for older children or grown ups looking for an enjoyable and different indoor activity.

Had a brilliant day out here yesterday for a friends birthday doing the archery experience. Such a great experience with lots of change throughout the 3 hours to mix it up, improve our skills and with a fantastic finale. Don't often do reviews but this deserves one. We will definitely be returning!

Oh my! My daughter had her wedding here. The staff were fantastic and walking her up the strawbale aisle with willow catkin blossom falling on us in the breeze was magical. The staff could not have been more attentive and we enjoyed the archery before toasting marshmallows around the fire. An unforgettable experience. Thank you to all the team for making her dream a reality. I know how hard you worked on the day.

Very professionally run place. I found Mark to be very knowledgeable and funny. I was surprised at the quality and variety of the different types of airsoft weapons. Followed by archery with Jess, who as Mark, I found to be very knowledgeable and relaxed. We particularly enjoyed the woodland 'fake' animal shooting with the bows. Definitely a great experience and I will be back to try some of the other activities on offer.

Wow! I cannot fault this place. We went for a day of bushcraft (survival!) and archery with a 7 and a 9 year-old. Mark led the bushcraft session with such professionalism and humour; handling fidgety boys with a light touch and challenging them to get out of their comfort zone. Mark is so knowledgeable. We all learned so much about the basics of survival, built a shelter and a fire and had a load of fun doing it. Mark's assistant, Alyssa (I hope this is spelled right!) was funny and chatty, spending lots of time talking to our Pokemon-obsessed 9 year-old. Her and Jess took us for the archery session and their approach was calm, positive and humorous. I'm so impressed with the whole experience. We will definitely do it again!

Great session today with Mark! Just my partner and I doing the two hour archery session and the time flew by. It was great to have the variation in the field and the forest. Mark's instruction was clear and relaxed, which makes it easy to learn as does a lot of laughter! Will be coming back to try other things too! Thank you!

Everything was great from start to finish. We hired the indoor airsoft range and had such a great time we've already booked again. Mark was awesome and certainly knows his stuff!

We booked the 5-hour activity session as a family for part of our Summer staycation. Our first experience with White Dragon and what a superb day we had. Airsoft, bushcraft, archery and axe throwing. All in a beautiful woodland setting. We were met first thing by our instructor Jess and owner Mark (who also took the time to meet us again at the end of the day as we said goodbye) and from there it was a packed day, which never felt rushed and for every activity we received expert guidance and advice from Jess on whatever we were doing. Safety was always high on the agenda and despite a varied set of ages amongst our group, briefings were always very inclusive. We had a lunch break (take your own packed lunch) with hot drinks provided which was a nice chance to chat with other participants and share the experience with like minded people. During the day we all tried activities we’d never tried before and came away with plenty of ‘do it again’ sentiment. A win for any parent looking to inspire the kids. In fact the same was true for the parents! The session represented great value at £40 per head when you consider the 4 activities we did across 5-hours. I would highly recommend White Dragon to anyone with a thirst for adventure.

Had the 3 hour archery experience, absolutely great value for money. We were really looked after with a good mix of ranges and targets to play with. Thanks for a great afternoon.

An amazing experience had by all! Was a really relaxed and fun filled day, which the kids absolutely loved and had not stopped raving about it since! Thanks team for all your help and knowledge, was worth every penny!
