The team were extremely helpful and very cheerful from the moment I contacted them for a booking to the arrival and the actually shooting. Range safety was excellent as was the tuition. My only gripe, I was beaten by two of my sons and had to pay for the birthday meal. Great place and highly recommended for a fun activity.
Being a gun owner I turn up when I want and am able to shoot the drives I want. If one trap is busy there are plenty of others so you are not disappointed or waiting a long time. The staff both in the office and around the ground are very friendly and helpful. Any issues dealt with on the spot.

The staff at Ashcombe are always very polite and helpful. Great set up of the ground in a nice relaxed atmosphere.
Brilliant experience (first time there). Lovely, welcoming staff, beautiful grounds, informative and interesting lesson, super supportive instructor. Couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you so much.
Very welcoming and friendly. Excellent tuition. Well presented good sporting layout.
Our instructor was very patient and competent. This made it a great experience
Fantastic staff and the ground is set in stunning countryside just 5 minutes or so from the A380 and ten minutes from the m5.
Great experience, Steve was a fantastic teacher. I got it for my husband for Christmas and we will be back for another experience soon! Would recommend for couples as a date afternoon but would get 50 clays as we enjoyed it so much.
Fantastic session with Don, great tuition in a fantastic location.
Very friendly and easy to deal with… let’s hope the experience matches the ease of booking!
Don is very patient and helpful. I am definitely benefitting from his friendly, calm and instructive manner. Still a way to go though on my side!
