FAQ

Questions we're often asked

How do I get there?

Fly into Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas. We meet you at arrivals and drive you to the lodge — about 75 minutes. Return transfers are arranged around your flights.

When is the partridge shooting season in Spain?

Our driven partridge season runs from October to February, both months included, with up to 3–4 shooting days a week, Sundays included.

Can I bring my own guns to Spain?

Yes. EU residents travel with their European Firearms Pass listing the guns. British guests and other non-EU visitors need their shotgun certificate and a temporary Spanish import permit, which must be applied for in advance. Airlines have their own rules too. Don't worry about the detail — we handle the permit paperwork for you; we just need copies of your documents in good time.

Can I hire guns and buy cartridges?

Yes. Good-quality side-by-side and over-and-under pairs are available to hire, and cartridges are supplied at the lodge and charged on use.

What about tipping?

Tips for loaders, keepers and lodge staff are customary. We'll give you clear guidance before you travel.

What should I wear?

Smart country clothing in muted colours. Mornings can be frosty and afternoons warm, so layers are best. Comfortable boots, a cap and ear and eye protection.

Do I need insurance?

Spanish hunting licence and third-party insurance are arranged by us. We recommend your own travel insurance, and your own shooting insurance if you have it.

What should I bring?

Passport, gun documents, shooting clothes, ear defenders, shooting glasses and something smart-casual for dinner.

What languages do you speak?

English and Spanish throughout, both in the field and at the lodge.

Can non-shooting partners come?

Very welcome. They can join the drives and lunches, or spend the day in Madrid or Toledo with tailored excursions and shopping.
