SHOOTING on Country Estate

From its creation in 1826 to the present day, the Glanusk Estate has been renowned for its country pursuits and at the forefront of these pastimes has been the shooting.

Widely reported in national and international press, as well as written about in Brian Martin’s book, The Great Shoots, Britain Best – Past and Present.

2024 will see the return of shooting at Glanusk. The shot will incompass 100-300 bird days, using ‘Foxhall’ beat on the mountain, and other renowned drives on the grounds of Glanusk Estate. Visitors and guests will enjoy the same areas, coverts, landscape of the Estate and still be impressed  with the sport, hospitality and landscape of this jewel of the Usk Valley.  All details are available from the Estate Office +44 1873 810414 or by emailing [email protected].
