We partner with Rewilding Britain to help protect our natural spaces for future adventures.
All centres are vetted for safety and quality. Your adventure is in good hands with adventuro.
Enjoy an off-road driving experience designed for groups, where each participant gets 15 minutes behind the wheel of a Land Rover Discovery TD5. With guidance from a BORDA-trained instructor, you'll tackle woodland trails, mud, water crossings, steep climbs, and challenging side slopes. The session combines fun and skill-building in a supportive group setting.
The session begins with a brief five-minute demonstration drive by the instructor, showing the vehicle's handling and the course layout. Following this introduction, each group member takes turns driving for 15 minutes, navigating varied off-road terrain designed to challenge and entertain. The BORDA-trained instructor stays with you throughout, providing advice and support to help you get the most from your driving time.
Groups hire between two and three vehicles depending on size, allowing multiple drivers to take part simultaneously and keep the day moving smoothly. The off-road course features woodland trails, mud, water hazards, steep inclines and descents, and side slopes that test balance and control, giving everyone an engaging experience.
Situated near Farnsfield in Nottinghamshire, the venue is set within private woodland offering varied terrain perfect for off-road driving. The area is accessible from the A617 towards Newark, with the site entrance approximately 200 yards after the A614 roundabout on the left side.
While sat navs may occasionally misdirect, clear signage and staff on-site will assist with arrival. The rural setting provides a peaceful backdrop for the driving experience without traffic interruptions.
Participants must be at least 18 years old, but no driving licence is needed to take part, making it accessible to a wide range of adults. The session is suitable for both novice and experienced drivers who want to enjoy off-road driving in a safe environment.
Wearing practical clothing and sturdy footwear is advised as the session involves outdoor activity in varied weather and terrain conditions. There is no need for prior experience, as the instructor provides full guidance throughout.
The group experience is designed to offer a fun, sociable way to try off-road driving with friends, family, or colleagues. The small number of vehicles per group and expert instruction ensures everyone receives personalised attention and maximises their time behind the wheel.
The woodland course provides a genuine off-road challenge with technical sections that keep drivers engaged. The team's focus on safety and enjoyment makes it suitable for a wide range of abilities and interests.
Yes, there is free parking available at the meeting point on Kirklington Road, near Farnsfield. We’re located just off the A617 heading towards Newark—200 yards from the A614 roundabout. Once you’re nearby, look out for signage and our team.
Please note that sat navs don’t always take you to the exact entrance, so it’s a good idea to double-check the directions beforehand. We suggest allowing a bit of extra time to ensure you arrive on schedule and don’t miss any of your session time.
Each participant receives 15 minutes of hands-on drive time in a Land Rover Discovery TD5. This is exclusive time behind the wheel, navigating through mud, woodland trails, water features, steep inclines, and off-camber slopes under the guidance of a qualified instructor.
The session also includes a 5-minute demonstration at the start to introduce everyone to the vehicle’s handling and the layout of the course. Drive time is individual, so no sharing of controls is required during anyone’s turn.
Yes, the group 4x4 experience is designed for all skill levels, including those with no previous off-road or on-road driving experience. No driving licence is required, and participants will be guided step-by-step by a BORDA-trained instructor who remains in the vehicle at all times.
The instructor adjusts their coaching to suit each person’s comfort level, making it ideal for both nervous first-timers and confident drivers looking to try something new and fun off-road.
Depending on your group size, between two and three Land Rover Discovery TD5s will be allocated for your session. This helps keep the experience flowing, with multiple people able to drive at the same time across different vehicles.
Manual and automatic options are available, and if your group has preferences, you're welcome to request a mix of vehicles. The use of multiple vehicles also ensures less waiting time and more overall engagement for large groups.
The course is built within private woodland and features a range of off-road conditions typical of the UK environment. Expect muddy tracks, water splashes, rutted trails, gradual climbs, steep descents, and gravity-testing side slopes.
The variety of terrain offers a proper taste of real off-roading, with enough technical challenge to keep drivers engaged throughout their 15-minute slot. The instructor will coach you through each obstacle and help you tackle it confidently.
No, a driving licence is not needed. The entire session takes place on private land with no public road access, so the usual legal requirements for driving don’t apply.
However, all participants must be at least 18 years old. This opens the experience up to adults who may not yet have a licence or who want to try something different outside the usual driving environment.
Spectators can usually be accommodated, but space may be limited depending on the group size and vehicles in use. It's best to check in advance if you plan to bring extra people not taking part in the driving.
For safety, non-drivers must remain in designated viewing areas and are not permitted on the course unless invited by an instructor. Anyone in the vehicles during drive time must be a registered participant.
Excellent day and an excellent instructor
Jez was a good “host”, helping us along the way. We hadn’t fully read the description of the activity and it turned out to be more physical then expected; however, it didn’t stop us enjoying ourselves - even the assault course was conquered by all.
