Great Oakley Hall

Full hospitality throughout the day. Morning coffee in the dedicated shoot lodge, 11's on the sea wall, lunch either on the foreshore or shoot lodge and finish with tea and cake.

Farmland drives of partridge and pheasant with emphasis on fun shooting in a picturesque and unique setting.

Gentle rolling farmland on the Essex coastline, across arable fields and marshland terrain.

Shoot forms part of the countryside stewardship schemes, with covers made up of a blend of winter bird covers, over winter stubbles and supplementary feeding.

The day is hosted by the Pile family who have been running the shoot at Great Oakley Hall for 55 years. We aim to achieve a relaxed, family atmosphere with emphasis on a good fun day with great sport.

Great Oakley Hall covers 1200 acres and is situated in a quiet corner of Essex, with the Hamford backwaters on two sides. We aim to utilise the conditions on the day to provide the best sport possible for the guns to create a memorable day. The shoot has been running for 55 years as a shoot that pays for itself and have only sold days via word of mouth. 14-16 days per season 150-250 bird days.
