THERE'S another Penkridge attraction which offers a range of activities at a sedate pace or to get the adrenalin flowing.

The LDF Entertainment Hub, at Lower Drayton Farm, offers everything from pond-dipping and nature trails to off-road rally driving.

It's the perfect venue for family days out, stag and hen parties, employee fun days, leaving parties or graduation ceremonies.

The Hub boasts a purpose-built paintball area designed to offer a diverse range of scenarios.

Or perhaps you've always wanted to be a firefighter? Now you can thanks to firefighter experience days!

Alternatively, why not try your hand at driving a hovercraft with purpose-built performance racer models capable of speeds of up to 40mph?

The Hub also offers clay pigeon shoots which take place every fortnight during the summer on Wednesday evenings. (Participants must have their own shotgun, cartridges and – preferably – fibre wads).

The Drayton Flyers model airplane flying club and the Penkridge Air Rifle Club are also based at The Hub.
