About the Experience

The year is 1346, Edward III of England (the Rightful King of France) has declared war on his cousin Philip starting a period we know as The Hundred Year War. After a successful naval victory Edward returns to England and prepares for his invasion.

Philip is quietly confident, he has the man power, alleys and mercenaries but what he doesn’t have is Edward’s secret weapon…

Journey with us to the past for an adventure like no other! A full day of shooting our hand made English longbows, competing for points for a prize, embracing a long the way what it means to be a soldier in the Medieval armies.

This English longbow archery experience day is like no other, you will come face to face with challenges, characters and even authentic food.

Stand shoulder to shoulder with the King as your hurl your arrows at the enemy, become rich or die trying, we will surely sing songs of your bravery!
