THE CHALLACOMBE SHOOT

One of the finest partridge shoots in the United Kingdom, Challacombe is situated in the heart of the Exmoor countryside and offers a great mix of testing drives. Its astonishing landscape sets an enduring precedent and brings a very special atmosphere to this impressive and convivial shoot.

Coveys of partridge and pheasant are flushed out to spectacular effect and these high birds are a pleasure to watch and a test to bring down. Guns find themselves in a mixture of surroundings from moorland edge and pasture, to wooded valleys. The views throughout the day are impressive for even the seasoned Exmoor visitor.

Set in a pure Exmoor landscape, the heart of the shoot is the reservoir, over which the birds are driven to astounding effect, offering dogs a veritable retrieving challenge. A wonderful spectacle for guns, dog handlers and onlookers alike.

The Challacombe Shoot continues to evolve, with some fantastic new drives, one of which is almost too difficult!
