CASTLE TOURS of Kenilworth, Bolsover, Chepstow, Raglan and Goodrich consist of a fully guided tour and archery demonstration.
It’s not just a tour; it is an assault on the castle, recreating in the minds of the children what it would have been like to both attack and defend the reconstructed castle. We also cover how the castle functioned in peacetime, the day to day workings etc.

Having shot the Long Bow for over forty years, this truly is a passion. We can focus on any angle of the medieval period you wish to cover. Be it the battle of Crecy or Agincourt, or the Wars of the Roses. This character arrives with a full array of weapons to demonstrate and for the children to handle. Using a model head we can demonstrate medieval surgery with the extraction of an arrowhead (recreating the operation carried out on the young Henry the V after the battle of Shrewsbury).
