A message from our chefs... "We'd love to share our passion for food with you. Following a collective 25 years working at the pinnacle of the fine dining scene in Sussex and 18 months in top kitchens in Asia and Australia exploring fusion dishes and techniques.

We work alongside the game keepers at Birch Grove and also Kent and Sussex farmers and fishers to ensure that the premium produce available on our doorstep is creatively showcased in our visually-enticing and flavour-packed dishes.

Have shot at Birchgrove numerous times and never fails to impress . One of the prettiest shoots in the country where no expense has been spared on both the lodge and the shoot.

I've had the tremendous pleasure of shooting at Birch Grove on several occasions and each one was memorable in many ways, from the welcome to the history to the birds to the topography and professionalism of the team, not to mention the fabulous catering. I'd wholeheartedly recommend shooting there.
