Welcome To The Queens Medieval Experiences
Hast thou ever fancied thyself the next Robin Hood, a fearsome Viking warrior, or a noble Knight of old? Then step forth and prove thy mettle in our Ultimate Archery, Crossbow, and Axe-Throwing Trials — where skill, strength, and honour shall be tested. Enter also our Knight’s Training Ground, where squires may rise in glory to knighthood… or fall as mere maggots in the dust! And now, by lance and steed, present thy courage at our brand-new Jousting Training, and ride forth in pursuit of triumph and renown. Sharpen thy aim. Steady thy hand. Claim thy legend.
Expert Instruction
Under the watchful eye of our skilled masters, thou shalt be schooled in every noble discipline — from the steadfast stance and sure footing of a true archer, to the keen aim and steady draw that sends thy arrow true into the very heart of the mark. Or, should thy courage call thee to greater glory, mount thy noble steed and learn the art of battle, wielding thy longsword with strength and honour as knights did upon the fields of old.
All Ages Welcome
Let it be known throughout the realm — all are welcome to take part in our noble pursuits. From young squires of but two years and more, to seasoned warriors and wise elders, our experiences are crafted for every age and every measure of ability. Whether thou takest up bow, blade, or challenge for the first time, or comest with skill already honed, there is honour and merriment here for thee.
Safety Above All
Though our pursuits be forged in the spirit of ages past, thy safety is ever our highest charge. All manner of protective measures are provided — stout safety fencing, strong nets to catch stray shafts, and full assessments of risk made with due care and diligence. Rest assured, we are fully insured, that thy revelry and adventure may be enjoyed with both confidence and peace of mind.
Professional Service
With honour and great skill do our qualified masters offer their guidance — seasoned in their craft and rich in years of noble experience. Under their tutelage, thou shalt be trained with care, patience, and true mastery befitting the age of chivalry. For those who would test their mettle in friendly contest, trophies and medals await the worthy — prizes to mark triumph, valour, and skill upon the field.
At The Queen’s Medieval Experiences, we offer a noble range of pursuits suited to all — from humble beginners taking up the bow for the first time, to seasoned archers seeking glory in competition.
Choose thy trial: a simple have-a-go, a full hour of tutelage beneath the watchful eye of our masters, or gather thy kin and companions for group bookings, birthday feasts, corporate gatherings, school visitations, and grand family days of merriment.
Uncover the hidden gifts within thee as thou takest aim at the ancient and honourable art of archery. With steady hand and keen eye, thou shalt soon strike true upon the mark…
Yet be warned — once the arrow flies and finds its target, the craft becomes most delightfully addictive.
Fear not, good folk — for we have returned!
The Queen’s Medieval Experiences, known throughout the realm in years past, was stilled for a time when plague swept the land and gatherings were silenced. Yet from those quiet days we rise once more, banners unfurled and spirits unbroken.
Now do we bring our noble entertainments to fetes and carnivals, to grand festivals and joyous weddings, to birthday revels and gatherings of guilds and merchants alike. Where there is celebration, there shall we be — ready to bring merriment, skill, and true medieval cheer to all who would partake.
Archery is a pursuit cherished across the ages — now honoured in great contests of sport, yet born of far older legend. It calls to mind the daring of forest outlaws, the valour of noble champions, and the deeds sung of in grand tales by firelight. Our Have-a-Go Archery brings that ancient craft to life, making for a stirring and much-favoured addition to any gathering or celebration
We shall gladly shape the experience to suit thy needs and those of thy honoured guests. The butts and ranges, the chosen marks, and the trials set before thee may all be fashioned to match the skill of the archers and the spirit of the occasion thou hostest — be it noble feast, merry fair, or grand assembly. Take up the bow, draw true, and let thy arrow fly as in days of old.
