Had a great time here today with a big group. Brian and Julie were lovely and very informative, I successfully landed an arrow in the bullseye a few times thanks to their tips. The birds of prey show was a nice addition to an already fun experience. Definitely visit if you’re staying nearby!

Julie, Archie (yes that's his real name) and the whole team here were so lovely and made our visit feel really special. We didn't book ahead and got a walk-in on the first Saturday of the summer holidays. They gave really good advice and all 4 of us improved our technique in the short time we were there. Afterwards we had a scrummy ice cream in the shop, which has the most spectacular view over the Gower.

We had a fantastic time doing an archery course at Perriswood today. The location is absolutely beautiful. Brian, Julie, and Gloria gave us the warmest welcome. They truly made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Just plain, simple chat was such a joy. The session run by Julie was outstanding. It was highly informative and supportive. The environment is relaxed but still very professional. You can easily see how much passion the team has for archery and the centre as a whole. They love what they do, and it shows. We learned so much and felt fully backed the whole time. This place is a real gem, and we cannot praise it enough. It is highly recommended for anyone looking for a great day out! NB. I enjoyed the experience so much I returned for the shooting tuition which was also outstanding
