What an amazing paintball experience. I took my sons as a birthday present. We had great fun and the team were so friendly and made it so exciting, whilst making safety an absolute paramount. Nestled in the woods in Dorchester on the A35 easy to get to and find. Being in the woods i think made it all the more fun. I highly recommend you go there.

I read an article about this garden in the RHS magasine this Autumn (Fall). The photographs were beautiful so I decided to visit with my husband. This is a really romantic garden at any time of year but we enjoyed the golden light of a November day and took masses of photographs ourselves.
