    We had an incredible experience! The staff were extremely accommodating, even though I have a tendency to lose track of time 😅 The atmosphere was so much fun, and the staff members were amazing. They provided excellent guidance and support, and have excellent rapport with guests - much needed to successfully nail an axe into the target. It's hard to believe that such a wonderful place exists in Worsley, especially when you’re immersed in the woodland. We originally received this activity through Buckt, but we’re already planning to come back on our accord. Next time - quad biking, maybe? Highly recommended!

    What a great day out. We loved this experience and are booking another session promptly. We did axe throwing this afternoon and it was great. Made a far better experience by Ryan who was our instructor. It was fun, educational and the setting ties everything together beautifully. I highly recommend this day out.

    Booked an archery/axe throwing combo for 2 of us and ended up with both sessions to ourselves. Both sessions were great, lots of activities within each session and very interactive. Our instructor for both activities was Vincent - great guy, very warm and welcoming, loads of laughs! Overall had a brilliant afternoon! We will definitely be back to try out the other activities on offer Thanks guys!

    My 8 year old son and I had an archery session this morning and it was brilliant. A huge thank you to our instructor Vicky who was so capable, clear, friendly and fun, and made so much effort to make it a positive experience and tailor the experience to be enjoyable for both adults and kids. The location is beautiful, we had a blast and will definitely return. My son says he wishes we could give it 10 stars :) Thanks again Adventure Now and especially Vicky!

    Rachel was absolutely outstanding when we went quadbiking this week, we couldn't have asked for a better experience, we got completely muddy and left with huge smiles on our faces! The crossbow archery was also brilliant, the instructor was humorous, creative, patient and we will definitely be back. If you're thinking about going to this place, don't think about it any longer, just book it and get yourselves down here. I promise you're in for a real treat.

    Excellent quad biking experience today with my 10 year old son. Rachel was fantastic at making us feel welcome & confident from beginning to end. Really enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be back. So much more to do there as well. 10 out of 10. Easily booked and fantastic directions too.

    An excellent day, definitely was worth booking especially having Mike as our instructor, he made it very fun. 10/10 to Mike. We will definitely be returning back. Thank you.

    Visited here a couple of times now. Both on corporate days. The first visit was clay pigeon shooting. Absolutely fantastic day. The second was Archery, Axe throwing and Air rifle shooting. Both days were excellent. Staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. Take time to teach you what you need to know and make sure that you are comfortable with it. I would definitely highly recommend a day here. Whatever you are into if they cover it here you will enjoy it.

    Had a fantastic time from arrival, Rachel gave us a warm welcome whilst we waited for our archery session to begin. Mike our instructor was very knowledgeable and made it a fun and funny experience. Would highly recommend.

  • 5/5 John H. 10 months ago on Google
    We did the archery and it was excellent. We didn't realise there were so many more activities we could do! Our instructor Mike was fantastic, he was friendly, professional and gave great advice. He kept us smiling and laughing while tweaking our techniques so we were hitting bullseye in no time. 10/10, had a lot of fun and will be going again.

    Had a great hour here slinging axes. Mark's instructions were clear and he made sure we all had good (and safe) fun. Give it a try!

    I recently visited Adventure Now and had such a great experience The place itself is set in woodlands reminiscent of a Robin Hood set, definitely felt like one of the Merry Men running around, you would never believe you were that close to the city centre. On arrival we were introduced to our guide/instructor for the day - we definitely drew the ‘Ace’ card when we got Ryan - A really cool guy with a great sense of humour, his instructions and tutorials were simple and easy to follow without losing emphasis on safety and technique. Ryan gave us lots of encouragement and pointers so we got the most out of our experience, we were so at ease that any worries we had about looking silly/being rubbish went with the wind. I didn’t know what to expect from Adventure Now having never done this before, it definitely surpassed my expectations. We had an amazing day with the team who were very attentive and seemed intent on making our experience one to remember. Big thanks again to Ryan! Keep an eye out for me as an extra in the next Robin Hood putting my newly learnt skills to use!

    Came for a nice business away day, the two members of staff who dealt with us were delightful and friendly. We had great fun doing catch phrase orienting. Can't wait to book again. Beautiful location too. Great for adult parties and families too.

    Had a fab time axe throwing this morning. Ryan our instructor was friendly and helpful as well as full of knowledge about all things axe-throwing! Felt like we had a good amount of time to try different throw styles, competitions between ourselves and really hone our skills.

    We had a try at archery followed by the crossbows. Both activities were brilliant! Instructors Ryan and Mark were each informative , helpful and supportive to everyone who who took part . A fantastic ,fun afternoon ! Would definitely recommend 👍🏻😀

  • 5/5 Natasha T. 7 months ago on Google
    We had a great time shooting air rifles. Mark made it really fun with different competitions and challenges. Would highly recommend and we will be back for more of the activities in the future.

  • 5/5 Anthony M. 1 year ago on Google
    Brilliant day out. We did the axe throwing and Vincent was our instructor. He was very relaxed yet informative and made the whole experience enjoyable. I would definitely recommend and will definitely be doing this again.

  • 5/5 Praful P. 2 years ago on Google
    Really good fun. Enjoyed it very much and will go back again. Our instructor Vicki was really good and funny and easy to get on with.

  • 5/5 Tasha D. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely fantastic place. We went for my sons 13th birthday today. The staff are wonderful and Ryan was fantastic with my middle son who has autism and needed a little extra support. Everyone loved the axe throwing. Wonderful place to be, and lots of different activities. We will definitely be back in the future.🥰😍

  • 5/5 Rahul P. 1 year ago on Google
    Was here on a stag do. I had an excellent experience, Vicky, Aiden, Vincent and the others who's names I can't remember were excellent on the day. Quad Biking, Axe Throwing and Crossbow shooting were all fantastically run ensuring we were having fun while being safe especially with the crossbows. I'd recommend this place in a heart beat, even with the slightly off the beaten path location!

  • 5/5 mary g. 1 year ago on Google
    What a fantastic place. Vicky made our Archery a fun, exciting time as well as being safe. My grandsons loved it. Thank you Vicky for your care and patience and sense of adventure!! Definitely going back to Adventure Now for the Angel Throwing. Brilliant place. 👍👏😄

    I've been to many stag dos with similar activity centres like this one, but this was by far the most fun and friendly I've ever been to. We did quad biking (one of the best courses I've ever ridden on), axe throwing and air rifles - all of which I'd highly recommend. The staff are outstanding. Friendly, sociable and just made the entire experience for me. Special shout-out to Micky - some of the best customer service I've ever experienced anywhere.

  • 5/5 Jules M. 2 years ago on Google
    Me and my partner went for his birthday, and had the best time. The whole team are lovely, and you can tell they genuinely love doing what they're doing there. Mark showed us the ropes on the archery and crossbow course, he was really friendly, and had some awesome stories to tell. Then Aiden took us around on the quads for what was one of the funniest experiences of my life. I spent the whole time screaming, but it was so much fun. I am so glad i've found this place, and can't wait to go back, so much fun from start to finish

    Awesome place, no idea this was round the corner from me I will 100% be going back! Axe throwing with the viking king Micky was loads of fun, he made everyone feel at ease and had mint banter with us! Quad biking with Aiden was really good also, not fast paced just a steady trek round the forest, 45 minutes felt like 10!! Staff at reception really friendly too. Take note of the detailed directions provided, can be a little tricky to find otherwise Highly recommended 👌

  • 5/5 Viv A. 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly and helpful staff. Lovely setting. Great directions, which you will need to follow! Had a superb time quad biking. Got a 9/10. Only reason it didn't get a 10 from my son was he wished he could have done it for longer. Great experience.

  • 5/5 Paul T. 3 years ago on Google
    Quad biking! Such an amazing experience and good value for money. The staff are very friendly and professional, it doesn't matter if you've never been Quad biking before, the instructions you are given are very clear and easy to follow. In the words of Arnold Schwarzenegger "I'll be back"

  • 5/5 CLAIRE H. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a great quad biking session with Ben! He was super entertaining and challenged us the entire way. Loads of fun and highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Philip C. 2 years ago on Google
    Great quad biking here! Well organised and a really good track to ride on. Huge fun for all ages. Worth visiting to make you grin and laugh like a kid!

  • 5/5 Peter W. 2 years ago on Google
    We were on a stag and went for the axe throwing. Incredibly friendly staff, we had a really good time and our instructor was amazing. So many other activities here and only wished we had booked more. Catered very well for large groups and there were multiple large groups all there at the same time. Already recommended to friends and will go back here again given the chance.

  • 5/5 Karl M. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic place, and a brilliant staff. We were given a truly excellent experience, and would definitely recommend it to others
