Four individual archery lanes – targets at 16 and 26 yards – no membership required.
Our outdoor archery range in North West Leicestershire provides a relaxed, purpose-built place to practise with your own archery equipment. The shooting line is covered, with the targets positioned outdoors in a peaceful setting.

Whether you are practising your technique, improving your accuracy, preparing for competition or simply enjoying your hobby, the range is suitable for recurve, compound and longbow archers.
