First class service, no issues with the tuition we received today thanks
Nice relaxed atmosphere, really helpful instruction using the right amount of tuition and practice. Highly recommended from someone recently taking up the sport.
Really great experience and excellent advice and training from staff. Highly recommended especially for families with teenage children.
Everyone is welcoming, friendly, skilled and experienced. The shooting ground is set in beautiful woodland and provides a huge number of traps of all kinds. The traps are periodically varied so there is something different every time you go there. You will not be disappointed with your visit to Ashcombe Shooting ground.
We did the Shooting experience. It was great fun, instructors were knowledgeable and they put a high priority on safety.
Justin took me through the paces and made it a great experience as a novice
Being new to Clay Shooting I took a lesson with Don at Ashcombe shooting. Don is an excellent coach and walked me through the fundamentals correcting some bad habits I had picked up. When I get the time I’ll head back to Ashcombe for another much needed lesson.
We had a wonderful time at Ashcombe. The people who work there were very welcoming and friendly. We were very impressed by the instructor, he was very patient and professional, with a great sense of humour. We can't wait to return. Thank you, it made a special occasion, very special.
amazing place with amazing coaches and staff.highly recommend
We went as a group of 5 (Dad and 4 youngsters) on the 25 clay introduction package. From the initial phone call to the end of the shoot, it was a truly great experience. Despite there being a competition on that day, we were booked in and felt like we were the only ones there and a truly valued customer. If you book directly with them, rather than a 1/3rd party page it works out a bit cheaper. Thank you from us all, we will be going back. x
We had a brilliant time and the guidance given was absolutely spot on. The gentleman teaching us really wanted us to do well and clearly knew his stuff.
Great place for shooting with quality instructors
