    Getting Outdoors and having fun

    I thought I would share my experience of our family's Axe Throwing and Campfire Cooking event at the Notgrove Woods venue of Fat Squirrel Outdoors. Fabulous venue, loved the idea that it is a little off the beaten track into a small wooded copse. The axe throwing was great fun and we definitely were a tad competitive! Campfire Cooking of hot dogs (both vegetarian and meat varieties) was lovely as we sat around the firepit and enjoyed both the conversations and the sounds of the birdlife around us. We booked direct with Fat Squirrel Outdoor and as they have 3 venues around Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire we found the one that was closest to us. I think it is a fabulous activity for both young and old; and we all loved the time spent outdoors. Why not try it out for yourself?

    Unforgettable 60th Birthday family activity

    A thoroughly enjoyable, well-organised event. Dave made the event a lot of fun, with good instruction. We were axe-throwing followed by a camp fire and smores with hot chocolate.

    Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Oxford.

    How much does Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove cost?

    +

    Prices start at $57 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Oxford usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Oxford is not rushed.

    Is Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Oxford, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Oxford can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Oxford and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Oxford within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Oxford?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Oxford experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cotswolds in a Day Tour from Moreton-in-Marsh / Stratford-on-Avon, Oxford University Walking Tour With University Alumni Guide, Oxford Official University & City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Oxford?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Oxford?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove?

    +

    Included: All Fees and Taxes; Throwing axes; and Parking. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove?

    +

    Parking is at the end of the track, please note this is a bit bumpy! Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Rural axe throwing experience at FSO Notgrove offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    +
