Description
About this trip
We offer a wide selection of estates for bird hunting. These trips are made for the traditional walked up shooting enthusiatics. Your own dogs are more than welcome. If you wish to travel without dog, a team of keepers will work their dogs to flush the birds.
We walk most of the day, following the dogs. The day can be ended by a duck flight. Ducks will be flushed and shot at then the guns will wait until dark for the ducks to return.
We also can organise driven days for teams of 6 to 12 guns to shoot pheasants, partridges and/or ducks.
Species
Pheasants (common and sometimes reeves), red-legged partridges, grey partridges, woodcocks, ducks and the odd rabbits or hares.
