Wiltshire, United Kingdom
Traditional Estate Steeped in History surrounding the local area of Malmesbury, in the Cotswolds, the current home of the 22nd Earl of Suffolk, 15th Earl of Berkshire. Using the natural landscape and extensive woodland, some of the Cotswolds sporting pheasants and partridges are available, across 12 drives. Novice and experienced guns, together with their dogs are all welcome. We have days available for both full teams and individual pegs. Partridges are shown from well known drives including Ashers, Old Skillham and Conigre . These drives will succeed thanks to the tall trees, encouraging the birds to gain height and slide when in full flight over the valleys. Pheasant drives showing challenging birds from signatory drives benefit from prevailing winds off banks over the Little Avon River and valley. We are excited to have this ground from season 2023/24 with a different twist on the shoot by showing Partridges, again over tall trees on top of some steep sided valleys, shooting on over 4500 acres of Grass land, Park Land and Arable farmland. We can offer some of the best Walked up Rough shooting for teams and individual guns to make up a line of 6, with anticipated bags of 30 head shooting over teams of flushing and retriever dogs. Half of the Estate is planted with arable cover crops other habitat including small woodlands, grass margins, ditches well maintained wide hedgerows, double banked little Avon, banks and valleys. Very unique to this part of England, Refreshments are taken in the field.
