Los Melonares

We are proud to offer one of the finest bird shooting experiences in Europe: traditional driven partridge shoots in the spectacular countryside of “Los Melonares”, while enjoying the most refined Andalusian lifestyle and the historical splendour of Sevilla.

“Los Melonares”, located in the heart of “Sierra Norte de Sevilla”, is owned and run by the family of Valentin de Madariaga, the first Spanish hunter who won the Weatherby Award (1977).

Madariaga Family , with over 20 years of experience organising top class driven partridge shooting, will provide a full service since we meet you at Sevilla International Airport, transfers to “Los Melonares” and through the field, provision of trained and enthusiastic loaders and “secretarios”, offering best private accommodation at the house of “Los Melonares”, arranging exclusive guided tours through the classic Sevilla for non shooting guests, supply of ammunition, stools and gun sleeves, and paying personal attention to every guest requirement.

Sevilla Region offers a very pleasant weather during the whole hunting season, with average temperatures between 10 ºC to 20 ºC. Los Melonares is located amongst the mountain range of Sierra Norte de Sevilla (35 minutes driving from Sevilla), where early mornings and late afternoons are usually cooler.
