Outdoor airsoft a short drive from Derby

Looking for airsoft near Derby? The A50 makes it easy. The Kingdom, our woodland site at Huntley Wood, Cheadle (ST10 2NS), sits roughly 25 miles west of the city. That’s a straightforward 40 to 45 minute drive almost entirely on the A50.

Whether you’re setting off from the city centre, Mickleover, Littleover or out towards Mackworth, it’s a quick, junction-light run with no city-centre traffic at the far end, just open Staffordshire countryside.

Big games worth the drive

The Kingdom isn’t just Sunday skirmishes. Across the year we run BattleSims, MilSims and weekenders on a 200-acre site with quarries, lakes, woodland and purpose-built structures. It’s the kind of scale that makes the trip from Derby well worth it.

For overnight events we even have luxury camping pods on site, so a big game can become a full weekend away.
