Harlow is a former Mark One New Town and local government district in the west of Essex, England. Situated on the border with Hertfordshire, it occupies a large area of land on the south bank of the upper Stort Valley, which has been made navigable through other towns and features a canal section near its watermill. Old Harlow is a village-size suburb founded by the early medieval age and most of its high street buildings are early Victorian and residential, mostly protected by one of the Conservation Areas in the district. In Old Harlow is a field named Harlowbury, a de-settled monastic area which has the remains of a chapel, a scheduled ancient monument.

We had an 8th birthday party here, first group in. Emily, jack and kem were wonderful. Great party, staff helpful, informative and really took all the strain out of sorting a party for 11 screaming 8-11 year old girls. Drinks for adults reasonably priced, food for children good quality. Seems a little expensive when booking, however, worth every penny. Definitely going again for future parties. Marshals Emily and Jack are patient and great with the kids, Kem seems to do everything you need to make the party run smoothly. Thank you Quasar.

Visited the circuit with a group of colleagues as a works ‘outing’. Staff were fantastic throughout and the venue was perfect for a work evening out. Hire of helmet cameras is a must, so you can relive the event afterwards!
