Close Action Airsoft

Close Action Airsoft is a proper competitive airsoft venue tucked away in Northamptonshire, just a short drive from Peterborough. Think tactical gameplay across multiple themed arenas - woodland scenarios, urban environments, the lot. You'll be firing replica weapons at other players in organised matches, which means it's not just a walk-round attraction but an actual sport.

This one's for people who take their airsoft seriously. If you're into tactical games, paintball's cousin, or just fancy a different kind of adrenaline rush, you'll find plenty to sink your teeth into. Families with teenage kids who are into gaming and action might enjoy it, though you'll want to check their age restrictions first - airsoft venues have safety rules for good reason.

You're looking at several hours minimum if you want to play properly, and you'll need to book ahead rather than just rock up. Bring your own replica gun or hire one on site. The cost varies depending on what you're doing, so check their website for current rates.

Works well alongside the caravan parks nearby - Northfield Farm and Brightside are both within easy reach if you're basing yourselves in the area for a week. It's the sort of thing to slot in between walks and slower attractions if your group fancies something with a bit of edge.
