Quite disappointed with the karting that just involved 'flat out' laps of an oval track with no skill involved. Feels like the price is just too high for what it is, especially compared with normal karting. A few odd comments towards a couple people in our group also made it feel a bit off.

Booked for a 30th birthday, 8 of us. Disappointing as its just a short oval track with some bumps. The karts dont require braking so its just pedal to the floor the whole way. Didnt get to engage with teammates during the races.. get in the car and go then it ends. So disappointed, dont waste your money.

Wow!! What an amazing afternoon. We did off road karting and clay pigeon. So much fun doing both, and the instructor doing the clay pigeon was so helpful. The first time our group have ever shot, but we all loved it. Definitely coming back

We had a fantastic time at Weston lodge for my brother's stag. Made to feel very welcome as we did karting and shooting! Our shooting instructor Tony was excellent in teaching us how to shoot and improving our technique and we never felt rushed - top instructor and great guy. I really enjoyed the medal giving at the end too - (well as the too racer and 2nd clay shooter you'd expect so!) :)
Definitely recommend! (And ask for Tony :) )
