Archery

Why not try traditional long bow archery with a skilled and patient local Englishman. This can be arranged in the garden, especially for larger groups, or you may wish to travel to the tutors’ home nearby (approx. 30mins drive) to join a small class with others.

Traditionally the finest long bows were crafted from Italian yew wood, renowned for its strength and flexibility (bounce). Regrettably there are now so few yews remaining that this is no longer the case, so I personally take great delight in the idea of archery in the garden with a view of our ancient yew tree.

All of these activities will be arranged individually for you. Some activities can be held at the Villa, whereas some you will need to travel to. Prices are dependant on season, duration, number of participants, whether just a one-off session or an hour or more every day.
