Paintball Southend | Reviews

"Fantastic set-up: everything you need to have a great afternoon. Equipment was spot on, great marshal to run the games, reasonably priced and facilities were exactly what you need. Having food on site made things a lot easier with 4 hungry teenagers! We will most definitely be going back!"

"Had an amazing time at the paintball centre in Wickford. The staff were fantastic—friendly, patient, and clearly passionate about making sure everyone had a great experience. The games were well-run, the equipment was in top condition, and the whole day felt smooth and well organised. Highly recommend it!"

"My friends and I went paintballing, and it was absolutely incredible! From the moment we arrived, the staff made everything easy and fun. The fields were exciting and well-designed, giving us plenty of places to strategize, hide, and surprise each other. We had nonstop laughs, a few epic moments, and honestly one of the best group experiences we’ve had in a long time. The gear was in great condition, the games were well organized, and the whole atmosphere was perfect for a day out with friends. If you’re looking for something thrilling, memorable, and ridiculously fun, I totally recommend going here. We can’t wait to go back!"

"Great venue & super helpful staff! From booking in a last minute game, to the staff at the venue customer service couldn’t be faulted. Had some apprehensive players, but the staff on site were so good that they are heading back to play again!! Safety always paramount, but it was conducted in a fun way so everyone had a top day out, can’t recommend enough."

"Very good courses to challenge my group of 6 teenagers, and myself. Fair prices of drinks and food too. Cost of paintballs is prohibitively high for some I feel but I would still return here and recommend. "

"Very well organised from booking the party to the day. The guys were great only thing was on the day was a lot of hanging around due to another party being late so was late starting. And then it all felt quite rushed at end.. we booked a 12.30 till 4pm session. Didn't start till 1.. The lad in the food bit was helpful and served our lads their food efficiently. Overall a great day and all the lads had great fun. Which it's all about. "

"Kids loved it.. staff were super friendly"

"The boys loved their paintball afternoon. Everyone was friendly, the safety briefing was very good and the venue has a relaxed feel. "

"What a fantastic day paintballing we had. The venue was great that catered to all skill levels, rom dense forests to urban settings. The rental gear was well-maintained, and the staff were good in ensuring everything fit properly and functioned correctly. They also offered a comprehensive safety briefing. Whether you’re a first-timer or a paintball veteran, I highly recommend this venue for an unforgettable day of paintballing fun."

"Really enjoyed our day .. it was my son's first time and the staff was very friendly and happy too help with any problems that arose .. all in all a great day for the whole family . Thanks for an amazing day "

"My middle child will spend all weekend gaming if left, so when he wanted to do this, I jumped at the chance for him to attend with a friend. Great, wholesome, outdoors fun. Really uplifting to see so many teens fully immersed. The staff couldn’t do enough to help and the bottomless tea was invaluable as it got quite cold waiting. We will be back as it’s hard to find something for teens to do this age who don’t enjoy team sports"

"I took a group of very excited 14 year old lads down for a session and we all had a fantastic time. The staff were brilliant with us all, in particular the marshal who accompanied us out on the course. He kept us all safe but ensured fun, competitive games made the day memorable. We were also impressed with the on site burgers. Top marks all round, we will definitely be going back soon."

"Good day out all round"

"The day was brilliant even though it rained! The group of boys I brought loved it. They were celebrating my son's 15th birthday who said it was the best birthday party he had ever had. Safety is top priority which is very reassuring as a parent. Each time they came out of a game, they were excited to share their stories with each other. I really recommend it for a birthday party for boys and girls. The guys at the centre are helpful, friendly and most importantly safety-conscious. Thank you for an excellent day!"

"Exhilarating experience! Me and my 2 friends (all 27 Y.O) took my nephew out to celebrate his 15th birthday. The marshal's were fantastic in making sure the day was fun and safe. Our group was split up to start with. We played various games on 2 different maps, both of which were cool. Everything was reasonably priced on site. Would recommend upgrading marker. We paid for 2000 paintballs for the day which worked out about right. Cannot comment on the food as we took our own food & drink. Players sticking to the rules of the games was key in making the experience more fun and competitive. The marshal's helped in making the day special for everyone who was there for their birthday and made it work with a small & large group. Would definitely return!"

"Game day was very well organised and everything was well explained and all marshals was helpful when asked something. And made most of the time we had. Will definitely go again and will be recommending to friends."

Would highly recommend as an outdoor activity and they'd definitely do it again. "

"AMAZING DAY OUT!! We had waited since August 2020 to be able to get a date booked for our group of 19, as due to COVID we had to postpone - but it was definitely worth the wait. Best way to celebrate a 23rd birthday for sure!! We did have a few people who were unable to make it, but nonetheless we had a really amazing time, and I can vouch that a lot of us would deffo come again! The customer service was phenomenal from the get go, all issues answered and resolved quickly, no problems with booking or rearranging, really understandable and accommodating. The games were so intense and invigorating, even being split up into different teams we were boys vs girls within our group, obviously us girls won, and we were put with so many other people at least 100 of us out on the top field and playing the spinner/demolition & capture the flag games with everyone of all ages included which was great to see! The referees and instructors were all on top form. It was just extremely hot and sweaty aha, but what do you expect in 25 degree weather running about playing paintball! The food/drink was good too and reasonably priced, refreshments available which was a bonus - plus you can take your own! We can't wait to come again, hopefully with the full group this time and next time get to play a game in the trenches! Thanks again to all the team, I/we would all recommend this venue/activity to anyone if you are looking to have a laugh or a proper day out!!! :) "

"Very friendly and helpful service when booking and arriving on the day. My 12 yr old son and his friends had a really good time. Plenty of time to get ready and briefed on what to do. It was a lovely atmosphere with a range of groups and ages. Breaks in between games to have a drink and cool down. Lots of parking too. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back with my teenage daughter and some of her friends too. Thank you."

"This was great fun with my Son. This facility also catered for large and small groups. Excellent."

"Amazing. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Felt really safe and well-advised by instructors. Defo coming back."

"Had a great time, I had never been before and never thought you could have so much fun watching people dance around as you shoot them with a tiny little ball of paint. Yes, it stings a little . Good layout, well maintained site with refreshments. Would recommend anti fogging head gear, it became very difficult to tell the deference between the marshals and the opposition. I’m sure we will be back soon. I still owe you one “jack”"

"Was great day out. Friendly staff. Great games. Bit expensive on the paintballs but fun day out. "
