We are very fortunate to have access to this wonderful estate, to simulate a number of gundog tasks, which would occur during the shooting season. Tea, Coffee & Soup will be provided for those who book multiple sessions and want to train different dogs. Please note young dogs soon get tired after being trained on water so it would be advisable to book a training session on alternate days or with a 2 hour break during the day. Accommodation can be organised. See Booking Form for details. Each Course will last approx 2 hrs, which enables you to swap dogs or give your dog a rest in between different courses. 

Times, Grades and Costs are covered on the booking form.
