Brilliant family day with our teenage daughters getting involved in all the activities including footgolf, laser tag, hoover boarding and laser shooting. Even though none of us are great at football, we gave the footgolf a go and loved it. The team looked after us, giving their advice during the actives such as archery and the hoover boards. The burgers and cakes on site went down a treat at lunch time. We had a great day and recommend a great day to get the kids off their phones and engaging in some activities.

Enjoy the thrill of piloting a wind powered kart along the beautiful strand at Benone. This eco-friendly sport is easier to learn than it looks and no previous sailing experience is necessary. It is a fun activity that adults and children can enjoy together. minimum age is 8 years. The activity is weather dependent but if the conditions are right you will have fantastic fun.

We loved our morning hack here! It’s a super, family run stables and it was easy to see that all the horses are so well looked after and are really members of the family! Amy and Adam took us out on the fabulous Captain and Pilgrim, beautiful piebald horses for a fantastic hack particularly for my bf whose first time it was riding! Thank you all so much for a memorable and fun hack in the beautiful countryside near MacGilligan Point, NI.

We often visit the country park and just love the peace and quiet you find as you walk along the well kept paths close to the beautiful River Roe. we did a full circut of the park yesterday it took us four hours but that included a break for a coffee and we certainly were in no rush. The only thing I do feel is that if the Park service can provide dog poo bins they should also put a litter bin beside them and this might solve the problem of the litter that is lying about. Did notice someone passed a remark about the notice about dogs that worry sheep will be shot and how shocked they were about it but I think signs like that are necessary as too many dogs are allowed to run free without the owners caring where they are and the poor farmer would be even more shocked to find his/her flock and probable livelihood destroyed by roaming dogs Having been there 3 times since Covid restrictions have been lifted we have found the facilities excellent the toilets have been spotless and I would have no hesitation about using them Well done Roe Valley Forest Park staff
