The estate's current shooting rights are let to Linkenhholt Ltd whose four shareholders have collectively shot on the estate with the syndicate for over 60 years. They are motivated to keep the traditions of the estate alive, Linkenholt is one of the oldest driven partridge and pheasant shoots in the country.
The fabulous estate with its Domesday history and village, is nestled in the rolling hills and ancient mixed woodland of West Hampshire and is a comfortable 90 minute drive from the centre of London.
Not only is Linkenholt amongst the finest shoots in the south of England, it is also one of the most scenic. Roland Dudley bought the estate in 1920 and is credited with with improving the shoot during his ownership, work which was continued by Christopher Bunbury until 2008 when the shooting rights were let to the current shoot tenants. In recent years the maintenance of the hedgerows, field margins and planting of game crops has enhanced the shoot and held the timeless air which is the essence of Linkenholt.
