Archery Holiday in Brittany

Baggie Boy West Midlands England
Review Submitted: February 10, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2009
Our hobby & passion is archery so when I saw this ad in our national magazine for a holiday cottage in Brittany with all archery facilities at your disposal we jumped at it. My partner and I spent a week at Les Archers last summer (2009).

The cottage was very nice, clean & tidy. The garden is beautiful & massive. You can shoot in the garden at targets up to 60mtrs away & just over the road (literally) are the woods where you have a field course of 25 targets at your permanent disposal. Many an evening we would eat on the patio, have a glass of wine and then shoot for a while before consuming more wine as we watched the sun go down.

The surrounding area is very nice and St Nicolas Des Eaux (5 minutes in a car) is beautiful. Right on the river with bars, restaurants & even an English owned hotel/restaurant! There is an equestrian centre a stone's throw away and walkers would find the area very appealing. Within a 15/20 minute drive there are a couple of very good supermarkets.

Our hosts Frank & Chris were very helpful, you were never bothered by them but being just next door they were always on hand when needed. Being in a foreign country their knowledge of the area and speaking the same language proved invaluable!

Even if archery is not your thing the cottage & area are well worth a visit, I would definitely return there!

Archery Holiday

Mongolia Argyll, Scotland
Review Submitted: February 9, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2008
Lovely house, very comfortable and lots of charm. On holiday with three small children, house great for that, and the big garden meant they could run free in safety. Christine and Frank put up an archery course for us all round the garden and we went round and round it trying to better our scores - so much fun for all of us. Also in gorgeous location and quite good for seeing some local sights, though to be honest we didn't bother with the beach - much quieter inland!!

Archery Holiday

archerywoman Ringwood
Review Submitted: February 8, 2010 Date of Stay: May 2008
We chose this property for the archery - but saying that we were very pleased with the accommodation. We arrived mid afternoon and immediately went out to shoot at the target in the garden and later enjoyed a very good evening meal. We had breakfast every day and was asked what time - 10.00am was agreed - so yes we shot before breakfast!!

We were there for the archery so spent a great deal of time in the garden and even had a go at field archery and decided that was not for us - although the course was well set out and well worth a go.

We did go out for dinner every evening and found a number of very good restaurant and one afternoon drove to Fort Bloc and enjoyed a superb sea food dinner.

We would definitely go again - what more is there to say!
