What Can I Expect

Keep calm and shoot straight when you try archery in Bristol! We are offering beginner archery lessons for juniors and grown ups at this outdoor activity site between Bristol and Bath. Hosted by an enthusiastic team of ArcheryGB instructors, you're bound to have a ball with your bow and arrow.

These archery sessions take place at the popular Avon Valley Farm. A dedicated target archery zone has been set up on the edge of the park, ensuring archers of all ages can shoot in safety, yet you're just minutes away from all the facilities of the main park (including a great cafe!).

This Bristol team teaches what they call 'barebow archery'. That means it's back to basics with easy to handle recurve bows, with no gadgets like sights or stabilisers to deal with. It's just about you, the arrow and the bow, getting the basic techniques right so that you hit the target.

Don't worry if you've never even picked up a bow before, the coaches will show you everything you need to know. It's all about staying cool, calm and collected. You might think archery needs a lot of upper arm strength, but that's not actually the case. It's all about the technique of nocking your arrow and pulling back the bow.

For younger archers, this Bristol venue has lighter bows for the 12-17 year olds taking part. And if you're left-handed, there are bows specifically for you. We also love the fact that with the archery range being built on flat, grassy land and extensive nearby parking, this Bristol shoot can accommodate wheelchair users.

So if you're looking for archery near Bristol that's accessible for all, this venue just outside Keynsham is a great choice for a day out for all the family. Buy your vouchers now and get ready to learn the basics and play some archery games too.
