We’re an axe throwing venue. Enjoy the thrill of throwing axes at targets within our lumberjack themed setting.
Reviewed By Desk06 - The Royal Town of Sutton Coldfield, United Kingdom
We've been here a couple of times and it's so much fun. Who would have thought throwing axes at a target could bring so many laughs! It's such a break from the norm of everyday life, and in my opinion cheap too. The staff are lovely, you can buy a lifetime membership, which gives you discounts. You can also download a loyalty card and after so many visits you get a free axe. What we like about it, is the staff check on you from time to time and give you pointers on how to throw etc of you are struggling. But they leave you to enjoy the experience/day out too. There are snacks and pop available if you get peckish too. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, it's great to see them back open after lockdown. What started out as an 'ok, shall we visit here to celebrate a birthday' has become something we all really enjoy doing.

Been to the Santa Safari today with my wife and our 2 boys 7 & 4. Can honestly say it’s the best Santa we’ve been to see and the whole experience was superb. We were a bit worried after reading bad reviews but I can honestly say I couldn’t fault a thing. Upon arrival at the hotel we went into a Christmas theme room with hot chocolate to have. We then went up to the caves in a 4x4 land rover which was very cool. Once at the caves we were met by friendly elves who told us where to go and explained the Covid rules. The caves were great, very well decorated for lots of photo opportunities. When we got to see Santa me and my wife were amazed how good he looked. With a real white beard and a friendly smile he was superb with the kids. Spent a good 5 minutes asking them questions and making them laugh. The boys were given an avengers soft toy as a gift (better than a lot for the cheap rubbish we’ve had in the past) You then leave the caves to stunning views before being taken back to the hotel in a 4x4. Honestly couldn’t fault a single thing! Well done to everyone involved you really have made Christmas week feel magical.
