Ryan Markham - Brilliant feedback from all of our students about the activities and the staff. Jake and Mario were really good with our kids and really helpful afterwards!

Richard Timmins - I dropped my 13 yr old and his friend off at bassets pole on the 26/2/22 for a full days airsoft, all staff are really friendly and welcoming and took time out to make sure they were at home, kids thoroughly enjoyed and couldn't stop talking about all of the activities they had been involved in.. only problem now Is they want to go every day ! Full days activities and well worth a go, friendly atmosphere and the older players took time out to let the kids look around the kit they have, very kind. Special thanks to Kerry for organising it, we will be back very soon !

Vicki Baylie - My 14 year old regularly attends the Airsoft Walk on Skirmish days and absolutely loves it, the Marshalls and staff (especially Kerry) are so friendly and helpful and always go out of their way to make it an action packed fun day. The Peaky Blinders pistol shooting is also a good one to try, set in a peaky blinder themed area with plenty of targets to shoot, you can dress up and pretend you're on set with the real Peaky Blinders, great fun for adults or older kids. The inflatables are also super fun, we booked this a few years ago now for my sons birthday, lots of inflatable obstacles and challenges, great fun for kids and the adults, we had a fantastic day.

Sally Knight - What an amazing place to take the kids to, great team of staff who look after them and ensure there day is fun packed. Been lots of times before this, now there 11 think the airsoft is now one of there favourite activities. What a great way to get them off there games. Staff are so helpful and friendly.

Rob Terry - Kids had a fantastic time. Anthony is a real credit to your team, his motivation and organisation of the group was superb !! See you for the next party in Sept !

Kelly Mills - I would just like to thank your team for such an incredibly fun day yesterday. We had a fab day and lots of laughs, the kids loved it and got over enthusiastic with the sumo wrestling but all lots of fun.
Thank your staff for me, they were wonderful, patient and really understanding, especially when the teams seemed to disintegrate and kids kept straying to alternative activities. Its this flexibility as a parent with an autistic son and a group organiser i really value when trying to organise activities.

Lavinder Sehmi - What a great experience the staff were so nice and welcoming. The kids were nervous but the staff ensured that they felt comfortable and they loved it.

Tia Mildenhall - Had a great day to celebrate the daughters 15th birthday.. kids and adults enjoyed it and many thanks to Joel for putting up with us... he defo added to the fun we had.... the food was great aswell just what we needed after our games. Look forward 2 next time.

Hayley Griffiths - My son went for his 12 birthday with family and his friend. Ages from 10-32 everyone had an amazing time, they would not stop talking about it all day! My daughter was thrilled she got a medal and they can't wait to come back.

Helen Ryman - Every time we come, we are over the moon with the people! The employees at NPF are helpful, friendly, encouraging and fun. No wonder it's so popular as it's a great place to be. Everything is organised brilliantly. 3 weeks of birthday celebrations in a row and I'm SKINT- but content as my kids have had wonderful experiences. Thank you.

Chris Taylor - Kids party, laser tag. Facilities look amazing, staff friendly and good with the kids.

marcus miller - I have been to NPF Bassetts Pole with friends to do paintballing and quad biking several times now and it is always a blast. This time though I took my brother (30's like me) and 15 kids for my sons birthday party. Kids ranged from 6 to 11 and they all had an absolute blast. A few were too young for paintball so we did lasers which is amazing. You can shoot someone from across the map and the gun reports it back to you if you get a hit + the enemies head and gun flashes. They suit you up at the HQ, drive you to the game zone in an army jeep and then spend two hours playing various game types like capture the flag and base defence. The marshalls were great with a fairly excited bunch of kids (and adults) and everyone had a really good time. Best kids party I have been to for a while (ever probably) and got them all outside running around rather than something that encourages just more sitting down. Going back soon for an adults day to do some paintballing with the parents of all the kids who were wowed by the venue + the 8+ kids are all looking to do some mini paintballing soon over the xmas break. After a drama last year which meant my sons birthday got cancelled I wanted to pull out all the stops and this was just the ticket. Recommended for kids, big kids and really big kids (in their late 30's) alike.

amy maclean - What a place! Heaven on earth for my boys! 7 year olds laser woodland party was amazing. All inclusive package of bbq lunch for kids plus bottomless teas and coffees for adults! The staff were fab--attentive, patient and knew just the buttons to push to get fun competitiveness going amongst the boys. My 10, 12 and 14 year olds cant wait for their parties: mini paint ball with unlimited balls for the plus 8s, black ops close combat paintball for the plus 11s. Great great find! And the parents all complimented me for such a great find for a party! Thank you!!.

SM2019 - We visited for my 8 year old’s birthday party to play Jungle Laser Tag. The booking process was incredibly easy, and Chris who took the booking made the process very simple. On the day, we were very well looked after by Anthony who had the perfect balance of fun and firm to help calm down a dozen over excited 8 year olds. The play area was huge and very varied which added to the fun, and Anthony very expertly knew when to slow things down a bit when everyone was getting a bit too hot. He also ensured that the parents were involved throughout. The reports detailing everyone’s activity afterwards was the icing on the cake. After the game was finished (much to the children’s disappointment), we were shown to our party area where we were very well looked after by Liz who assured our food was delivered quickly and everyone was well looked after. All in all it was a complete success and the kids are already planning a return trip (with adult participation!) Thanks to all who looked after us.

Peter - Kids party. 10 8 year olds with guns. What could possibly go wrong??? Brilliantly looked after. Great fun.

Nicola Bennett - My son and his friends had an excellent party. The staff were all brilliant, friendly and helpful and engaged with the boys well. The venue is really well organised, plenty of space during covid times. And a good range of activities to chose from. The fire and complimentary tea were very welcome for those us left behind to wait while the kids were having fun. A great venue and I’m sure we will be back.

Fliss Harris - What a great day our boys had, the Marshall was brilliant with the kids. He was clear in his instruction and friendly. I was also really pleased with the efforts of cleanliness used during the pandemic.

Debbie P - Went here for a birthday party of 4 children on one of their junior days. A brilliant venue with friendly, caring staff. They had fun activities for the children and made sure that each child was well looked after throughout the day. Great to see that the kids were able to play with people their own age too. The price for the day was great value for money and the kids enjoyed every second of it! Thank you!

Marie Nichols - Great place for our team Christmas celebration. Have returned for the last three years, and intend to return for a fourth. The Dragons loved their paintball experience. Great for team building and fun for kids and parents alike. Great, friendly staff too. Fantastic afternoon had by all!

Anthony Wilson - Great day. Kids loved quads and escape from the jungle.

Claire Harper - We did jungle escape, 3d archery and quad trekking, Amazing venue and fantastic staff, staff had so much patience with our 3 children especially the staff on quad trekking, we will definitely be back to try other activities, can not rate you enough. Thank you so much for one of the best days we have had.

Tracy roberts - Absolutely amazing morning. The kids loved it and the guys working at npf are lovely and good fun! They are great with the kids and made it fun
