Such an incredible simulated day at Quidenham Estate Simulated Game Shooting with our ladies!! Nothing but smiles all day, come rain or shine!! Jess and Philip have honestly created the most incredible simulated day I have personally been on! Their woodlands allowing for the perfect recreation of each game bird for all of the different drives! Their hospitality was second to none and the ladies all shot amazingly!! So proud of everyone today, all new faces and all left as friends, exactly what The Country Girls UK days are about!

Ingleton Wood LLP hosted a truly excellent corporate event at Quidenham Estate Shoot on Friday 22nd July 2022. A group of 12 representatives from Kier Construction, RG Carters, Morgan Sindall, Dodd Group, and CPS had a day clay shooting (and eating!) under the superb organisation and watchful eye of Jess and her loyal team. Breakfast rolls and coffee to start, then 4 drives and over 3500 of cartridges later interspersed with elevenses, led onto a well earned lunch at the shooting lodge and a good group chat about the days events and business over more coffee and beverages. What a great way to spend a Friday, and be wined, dined, and looked after. Amazing setting, team, organisation, shooting, food, and attention to detail. Can’t wait for the next one!

A very professionally run and well organised simulated game day with lots of good targets and excellent food. Everybody enjoyed the day from experienced shooters to beginners. Jess and her team worked very hard to make sure everybody was well catered for. I would highly recommend this day and will definitely book to go again.

We held our first corporate shoot day here back in July, and what a fabulous day everyone had!

Jessica had everything organised and under control – even leading up to the event. As the organiser/host of our events this meant I could relax and enjoy the event with our clients. From the moment everyone arrived, to departure everything was ran perfectly. The food, the hospitality, the different drives and varying clays (suiting our shooters varying skill levels).

Jessica has this day down to a tee. If you want a simulated game day – this is the one to book. See you in 2024!
