The Lodge itself was purpose built in 1908 for shooting entertainment days by Edward Carr, a wealthy local lawyer for his clients and guests.  Now almost a century later it is still used for this Victorian tradition, now one of the most popular ways of entertaining business associates, friends and family.

The Lodge is now a family business run by Michael Meggison, a member of the British Olympic shooting team in 1980 & 1984 and son Aaron, himself having great success on the British team and Commonwealth championships since the age of 13.

Primarily a professional shooting school, open 6 days a week, with the objective of simulating game birds in exactly the correct environment. [ Click here for Opening Times ] The grounds lend themselves perfectly with grouse moors, lakes and woodlands to give an extremely relaxing setting for an enjoyable days shooting.
