We did paint balling with these guys for a stag do I organised. Absolutely fantastic! We already had another activity organised for the morning and Brian accommodated us turning up a bit late so we could do both. He also helped us out with a bright orange jump suit for the stag and set us off on an afternoon of carnage. I can hand in heart say the martialing was the best we have ever come across (thanks Jake and Co martial!) and it made the games a next level of fun to play. Everyone knew where they stood and could just enjoy playing! They also arranged for us to do a "walking dead" round which was basically everyone against the stag - fantastic and brutal all rolled into one. Would highly recommend for a stag do or just generally for a paintballing sesh!

We are staying in the area for Christmas and found Exmoor Zoo on TA. What a gem of a Zoo, a great range of species from reptiles to big cats to wildfowl to primates and a wide range of mammals including the lovely and rare in Europe, singing dogs What I really liked was seeing a lot of the more unusual species and how close you get to large cats as they devour their meat. I saw new enclosures being built for new species as well. A great find, really enjoyable and great for close up observations ..... including a “beast of exmoor”
