(1 Review)

This extensive range complex features five bays, Bay A containing 7 electronic advancing targets, whilst Bays B-E each offer 10 turning targets. The back of the range benefits from a covered firing point, and wheelchair ramps allowing access between Bays.

Most bays have the capacity to set up additional range funiture such as barricades, knockdown targets and Mini McQueen castles

The complex has its own car park and toliet facilities.
