At Lakeside we’re very proud of our beautiful 39 acre setting which provides the perfect backdrop to our clay pigeon shoots and fishing lakes. You don’t have to be shooting or fishing to visit Lakeside, just pop over to the Lakeside Cafe for one of our fantastic coffees and soak up the views.

My 10-year old daughter is attending a 6-week beginners course and she’s loving it! Our instructor, Mark, is very knowledgeable and is making time to understand all of the participant’s skill level, strengths and weaknesses and is tailoring his advice to everyone individually. He’s making sure it’s fun too, especially important for a 10-year old as there’s a lot to take in at first, but Mark’s introducing things step by step and everyone is improving as the weeks go by. There’s a really good selection of great equipment and the shooting ranges are really well themed and laid out. It’s the highlight of my daughter’s week!

Laser Quest is an interactive laser game great for adults, teenagers and kids alike, combining the classic games of hide and seek and tag with a high-tech twist. Blast your way through a smoke-filled, UV lit arena, in order to complete your mission and obtain the highest score. In addition, we are the top choice for sports team and youth group events, school field trips, and corporate events. (Suitable for ages 6+)
We had great fun at Laser Quest - we played three games and each was with other groups in the arena which made it more fun. Staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Arena is not too dark with a good range of barriers and paths. Guns were good and any minor issues were sorted by the staff immediately. Knowing who shot you meant that some good grudges could be built up! Fun for all age ranges as we were 40+, teenagers and a 10 year old. Highly recommended to let off some steam!
