Kentchurch sporting
Kentchurch Court Estate is a 5,000 acre estate, where sporting enthusiasts have enjoyed driven pheasant and partridge shooting for nearly four decades. Situated in the Monnow Valley, on the Herefordshire/Monmouthshire border, the topography of the estate, with rolling countryside and traditional mature woodland, lends itself to presenting some of the highest birds in the region, guaranteed to challenge even the most discerning shots.
The normal daily bag is between 200 - 500 birds, or tailor made days can be arranged. Both pheasant and partridge are released with the occasional wild duck.
Kentchurch Court is approximately 15 miles from the end of the M50 motorway which gives access to the M5 north and south. It is approximately 12 miles from the A40 giving access to the M4 at Newport to Bristol and Cardiff.
Alongside high quality shooting, the guns can enjoy staying at Kentchurch Court; the ancestral home of the Lucas-Scudamore family since the 14th Century. The Court offers a unique setting for entertaining shoot parties, set in a stunning parkland setting, it can accommodate a team of guns either before or after a day’s shooting. Guns can enjoy a relaxed evening with all of the food locally sourced; the vegetables from the Estate garden, and venison from the Deer Park.
There is also the option of a number of excellent local hotels that are happy to cater for shooting parties and dogs.
We can also accommodate anyone wishing to arrive by helicopter.
Loaders or instructors can easily be provided if required.
There are already a number of superb drives, The Orchard, Castle, Garlicks and Horse’s Head to name just four, where the grounds fantastic topography lends itself to producing top quality sport. Over the next couple of years we plan to develop and expand many more drives over the 5,000 acres. This includes creating new drives in Copses wood, which is the wood that sits above Kentchurch Court deer park.
