Contact & Find Us
WhatsApp, email, address - and the entrance that catches people out.
We love WhatsApp to run the business, so the quickest way to reach us is a message on 07774 636254, or email info@escarmouche.com. Escarmouche is at Shane's Castle, Shane Street, Randalstown, County Antrim, BT41 2AD, about twenty minutes from Belfast. Open Monday to Sunday, 08:00 to 20:00. Use the Randalstown entrance, not the Antrim entrance, and book all sessions in advance.

The entrance, because it matters
Use the Randalstown entrance to Shane's Castle. The estate has more than one way in, and putting Shane's Castle into a phone will often route you to the Antrim side, which is a perfectly nice entrance and will not bring you anywhere near us.
Groups who take it lose about fifteen minutes doubling back, and because sessions are booked in advance with marshals allocated, that comes out of their own game time. If you are organising a group, put this line in your message to them.
