Most of our guests base their UK Country Holiday around our superb fly-fishing, but will usually add at least one of the following country pursuits to their week's trip. FISHING | FALCONRY | RIDING | SHOOTING
FISHING We are surrounded by some of the best fly fishing in the south, and our choice of waters include the Duke of Northumberland's gin-clear stalking fishery at Chalk Springs, the beautiful reservoirs of Bewl and Powdermill, Roger Daltrey's fishery at Lakedown, and the UK's most famous big fish water, Dever Springs. If you've never caught a double figure trout, now's your chance! This year we are proud to be able to offer the chance to fish on one of the world's most famous and exclusive chalk streams, the River Itchen. At a fraction of the price of most of the day tickets on this beautiful water (and they are extremely difficult to find), this is a unique opportunity to try the quintessential English fishing experience. Please click on the Fishing button on the top menu for full details.
FALCONRY We offer a range of falconry experiences, including hawk walks (a fascinating hands-on 3 hour walk in the forest with Julian and a Harris Hawk), Owl sessions (hands-on and flying) and birds of prey displays with participation. This year, from November to March, we are offering an incredible and unique experience - hunting with hawks. Experience the medieval technique of hunting with birds of prey. We will take you to the beautiful Ashdown Forest for the day, where you will watch and take part in a centuries old tradition. We can't guarantee that the birds will catch you a pheasant supper, but it's a day that you will never forget.
SHOOTING An added bonus is that we will be just round the corner from our favourite old pub in Sussex, the Griffin at Fletching. A log fire, superb food and a pint of Harveys Sussex ale is just the thing after a morning's shooting.
