May 2026 • Friends
We had a great day with our knowledgable host and bushcraft expert ADAM.
Learning to throw axes, bow and arrows and some air rifle target shooting, gets you in the mood for preparing and then eating a delicious BBQ from the deer meat.
A relaxed and informal set up and authentic tents and shelter. Nothing fancy but great fun to share the outdoor experience with friends.

My 11 year old son attended with three friends for Bushcraft party afternoon session. They all had a brilliant time. The session covered so much and Adam was extremely knowledgeable. He pitched the session perfectly. Learning how to use the knives and create their own mallet was a hit as was the fire building and lighting. Highly recommend and hopefully we will be back to try an over night stay in the future!
Spit-roast Deer for family celebration
Jamie spit-roasted a deer for our celebration party of 70+ guests. He was helpful in every way. The BBQ set-up looked spectacular and the end result was perfectly cooked and delicious.

Bushcraft birthday party
We booked a bushcraft party for my 9 yr son’s birthday and it was absolutely amazing- the kids and the parents had the best time, lighting fires, foraging, making campfire bread, toasting marshmallows- and axe throwing!! Ed and Pete were brilliant hosts, made sure all the kids were engaged and involved and had lots of fun. The site is beautiful and just perfect for a party; booking and communication was also easy and very professional. Highly recommended.

10 year old's wild party!
Amazing 10 year old's kids party with safe social distancing after 4 months in the house. Kids loved the activities like knife work on wood, fire lighting and especially the axe throwing! An undercover area for the rain and loads of space for roaming around equalled very happy kids, and for that matter parents. Lovely, down to earth instructors who didn't rush you, job well done guys! This is perfect if you want something different and have done all the usual, dare I say in comparison, rather dull parties, plus it's open now! Highly recommend! Just need to have a go at the accommodation now at the Forge!

Great afternoon of bushcraft skills
Great party for a 10th birthday. The kids got so much out of the experience and loved learning knife skills and fire building. The axe throwing was the icing on the cake! Staff were knowledgeable, fun and engaging. Highly recommend. Social distancing and covid compliance was excellent.
