My son wanted a laser quest party but I was worried he would actually be a bit scared once we arrived so we were invited down before booking to have a look around. We went ahead and booked and arrived with 10 very excited children, a couple of which felt a bit nervous. The guys that work at Battlezone were brilliant with the children, easing them in gently by staying in with them & leaving a light on. Within 5 minutes, all 10 of them were in full flight, with lights off and having the best of times. After the games, the children had Dominos pizza ready & waiting in the party room. I was so impressed to see the staff handling all the food with hygiene gloves on. The place is like a movie set, unlike other laser quest venues that are just walls painted black. It’s done in a war theme with sound effects of planes and bombs going off. All the children loved it and said they wanted their parties there. Can’t recommend it enough. Thank you for making my son have the best day.

Amazing treatments in a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. I really look forward to treating myself to a treatment or two. Massage and pedicures are my favourite but to be honest all the treatments on offer are amazing.

Had a fantastic time at the curry club last week. The course was really hands on with everyone cooking their own meal from scratch. James & Autumn were really friendly and welcoming, and the food we made was delicious! Would highly recommend.

We booked the day before as a last minute treat for myself and 3 work friends. We arrived to a lovely quiet location, everyone was warm, friendly and attentive. We had a room to ourselves all day, our own changing room and were the only people in the pool and jacuzzi area. The treatments were a good length (not like a lot of places where it’s just a 20min taster). I had Ellie for a deep tissue massage in particular which was very good. Lunch was lovely too, a yummy chicken Caesar salad followed by a lemon tart plus we were well looked after with hot drinks and cookies. I’ve done a number of spa days before and this was by far my favourite, we will be returning!

I've just returned from another weekend retreat at Green Farm and it was just as good,if not better than the first. A full 48hrs of total relaxation, excellent food, luxury accommodation and great company. The yoga teacher is fantastic, as are the therapists in the beautiful spa. This time round, I made sure I tried out the hot tub and it was a great way to wind down after a glorious walk in the surrounding countryside led by our hosts (and their lovely dogs) learning all about the local flora and fauna and their sustainable and ethical farming methods. Martin and Maryann are superb hosts who look after you and welcome you into their home as if you've known them forever whilst still giving you plenty of space and freedom to enjoy your weekend getting away from it all. I'm already eyeing up dates for 2020.

We played both The Moonlit Wild and Murder on the dance floor and we were not disappointed. Both games were extremely fun with a nice variety of puzzles and clues. Mike and Keri were absolutely lovely and friendly. You can see the effort and the passion that they put into their rooms thanks to their creativity and imagination. The sets and the props were exquisitely made, the games flowed really well and the whole experience was fantastic since we first walked in. Big welcome, fun chats and clear explanation of the rules. We can't wait to see what other games Mike and Keri have in store for us. You can never have enough! Pressure Point has quickly become one of our favourites. Great job guys!

Run by enthiusiastic volunteers for the local council, this Mill is fully working and if you ar lucky and the wind is right you can watch corn being ground into flour and even buy the flour. This is of the wholemeal stoneground variety and I am told makes great Christmas cake. Runs entirely by unpaid volunteers you can even join the "Friends" who raise most of the money to keep the Mill working. A local hidden gem.
