- 936mariannea0 contributionsBirthday Axe ThrowingSomething slightly different for my birthday this year. I group of us went Axe 🪓 Throwing. I didn’t really know what to expect but certainly wasn’t disappointed. Damo The Viking hosted us all superbly and showed us all how to throw an Axe. We had a number of different games which brought out the competitive spirit in a few of the group.Written 19 September 2024

- kitkatches0 contributionsAxe throwing funWe did axe throwing this morning with Jon, who was very helpful trying to get us in the best position for our axes to land (and is great with slow mo action shot videos). We also got to try some throws with the tomahawks at the end outside. Had a great morning, will definitely recommend and take part again. Thanks!Written 3 June 2023

- emmadO4785SK0 contributionsAwesome experienceMy partner and I went Axe throwing today both of our first times, this place is amazing I would honestly recommend it for anyone! The staff and owner are fantastic, they give you pointers to help your throw but also let you get on with the fun! You get to have some friendly competitions we also were able to throw some Tomahawks at the end outside, please if you are thinking of going do it! Fantastic place easy to find, brilliant staff and just an all round super friendly environment, we will be back! Thank you Rock and Hatchet!Written 25 February 2023
- SammyJay19860 contributionsExcellent fun and brilliant hostWent axe throwing with all the family for a joint birthday activity and the male host was AMAZING! He was fun, made the whole experience exciting and was generally just brilliant! Will definitely be coming back for more activities in the summer.Written 29 January 2023
- NFountain010 contributionsAn excellent experience for all the familyWe were excited to give something new ago and entertain our older teens. This did not disappoint! The registration was a faff but once we got going, the instruction was great particularly from the lady and guy with facial hair (l’m sorry l didn’t get their names). We practiced and then had a competition followed by some different techniques. Finally as a bonus we got a go with the tomahawk axes. I really feel they went above and beyond what was expected. We all came away buzzing! Cannot recommend enough. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Written 10 September 2022
- 8427A0 contributionsGreat hosts and fun archeryJohn and Kerry were great hosts, both were polite, welcoming, enthusiastic and fun. Before starting the session Kerry gave an informative guide on how to use the bow and we were given a few practise shots. After we played lots of different games which were great fun! The variety of games Kerry selected were fun, competitive and kept the session really interesting. The 90 minutes flew by and I really enjoyed my experience here. I could have easily carried on the archery session for another hour! I also liked that the total number of people taking part was only small (4 people in total), this made me feel like I did not have to rush or did not feel pressure from fellow competitors that were waiting for their turn. Kerry also allowed us to take as many photos/videos as we wanted which was another positive as I love to take photos to capture memories. They had taken into consideration the covid guidelines which made me feel safe - everybody was spaced apart, the instructors would not come too close (if they were giving feedback to you they would do this from a distance), bows and arrows are wiped down before use. There was no toilet on site but Kerry said they had to remove the portaloo due to covid, so maybe in regular times there would be one there. After our archery session Kerry and John were very kind to allow us to have a free go at tomahawk throwing. Throughout the time I was there I never felt rushed by the instructors, they were always happy to help and were funny. Thanks for a great afternoon!!Written 7 May 2021

- 589gerardv0 contributionsAbsolutely wonderfulThis was honestly one of the best experiences to bond with my new friends. Great staff, they have been able to receive my calls and talk me through to directions to get here. The farm was cold but the warm greetings of the staff was made up for it. I had a phenomenal experience and look forward to returning! Those videos were great too! Thank you!Written 1 December 2019

We had a great time today, as a family, at Arrowdox just outside of Ampthill. Kerry taught us how to shoot a bow and arrow, we had a good laugh and really enjoyed the activity. Will definitely go back in the future to try one of the other activities available. Highly recommended.

As part of a birthday celebration, we took part in the target archery session for a group of 10 of us ranging in age from 17 to 81. The staff were so friendly and helpful from the word go, making us feel welcome and at ease. This was particularly appreciated given that one of our group was in a wheelchair, one found the larger bow tricky to use and most of us were complete novices. None of these factors caused as issue though - with one member of staff helping to push the wheelchair user, a smaller, lighter bow being found and lots of clear, patient encouragement given throughout. There were a range of fun challenges from traditional target shooting to aiming at balloons and then life-size foam animals/zombies. As well as thoroughly enjoying participating in the archery session, we also liked watching the axe throwing and the combat archery which also looked great fun. We were able to enjoy a picnic lunch which we had brought with us thanks to the benches, tables and chairs provided. All in all, we can highly recommend Arrowdox as a thoroughly enjoyable activity from start to finish. With genuine thanks to all the staff for making this such as special birthday treat :-)

We visited this weekend with a very mixed age group - teenagers, a ten year old, my 68 year old dad, and a middle aged dad.
Kerry and the team were really welcoming and professional, while maintaining strict social distancing and cleanliness routines between each activity.
The tests and tasks gradually got more complicated, which really helped us to have fun but also to learn during the 90 minute session (which flew by, but left us all knowing that we had been outside doing an activity)
Everyone was catered for with different sized bows and different weights of arrows and different target types and she made us all feel like we were learning (even me, who went backwards in skill!)
