A perfect introduction to clay pigeon shooting is offered at this centre nestled amongst the trees of this vast Devon country estate near Dawlish, with excellent facilities for shooters and their guests to watch the action.

All experiences start with a safety briefing and how to handle the gun. Only when you are happy with all that you've learnt does the instructor load your first cartridge ready for your first shot. Exciting stuff!

Clays are thrown to imitate the flight of different game birds, such as pheasants and ducks so even as you get more confident you'll still have to keep your wits about you. The experience ends with a friendly competition to find the best shot of the day. We also offer similar shooting activities at venues other than Devon, please see our main clay pigeon shooting page for more details.

The whole experience lasts around two hours for a 50 shot experience. Complete beginners will be put into groups of up to seven, with everyone getting individual tuition on gun handling and safety.


The clay pigeon centre in Devon is open throughout the year and the shooting ground is open 10:00 to 17:00, Monday to Saturday.
