Parkwood Deer Stalking

Stalking outings take place in rolling valleys, arable land and ancient woodland. Much of the land we stalk over is under a stewardship scheme creating an ideal habitat for an abundance of wildlife.

We offer guided Fallow and Roe deer stalking, with much of our management work focused on maintaining sustainable Fallow populations.

Our primary focus is on breeding-age does and younger bucks, while a number of mature bucks are also culled each season on request, as they form an important part of an effective deer management plan.

We also manage good numbers of Roe deer, including some excellent representative bucks, providing opportunities for both experienced stalkers and those looking to develop their skills.

Estate Rifles & Equipment Hire We have a selection of estate rifles available to hire, including a Sako 85 chambered in .243 Winchester and a Sako 85 chambered in .30-06 Springfield.

Both rifles are fitted with premium Swarovski or Zeiss optics, featuring variable magnification and illuminated reticles. Rifles are supplied with a sound moderator, sling and bipod.

Swarovski and Meopta binoculars are also available to hire on request.

All guests must hold valid field-sports liability insurance before undertaking any stalking. Suitable cover can be obtained through organisations such as BASC or other specialist field-sports insurers.

Your host for the day is a passionate countryman and experienced deer stalker, holding British Deer Society DSC1 & DSC2, Forestry First Aid at Work, and Lantra Advanced Deer Management qualifications.

A typical day begins with a detailed briefing, potentially in the early hours and before first light. From there, we make the short journey onto the estate, where the stalking begins.

Working with the conditions, terrain and deer movement, we will put in the time and effort to locate suitable animals and stalk within range, with safety, responsible deer management and a successful day in the field always at the forefront.

Non-hunting guests are most welcome and can join you in the field to experience the excitement of deer stalking without carrying a rifle.

We also offer an unarmed stalking experience for those who would like the opportunity to observe deer at close quarters and experience the countryside from a stalker’s perspective, without wishing to take a shot.

The stalking is located within 1.5hours drive of Central London on the Kent and East Sussex Border. our nearest international Airport is Gatwick which is a 45 minutes drive away.

All carcasses from deer culled during our stalking experiences will enter the public food chain, ensuring that the venison is put to good use.

Guests are encouraged to purchase their carcass, or a selection of venison, through our approved buyers. Where required, professional butchery and delivery directly to your door can also be arranged, allowing you to enjoy high-quality, locally sourced venison from your own stalking experience.
