BEFORE YOU VISIT HIGH LODGE, PLEASE FAMILIARISE YOURSELVES WITH OUR IMPORTANT SAFETY AND GROUND RULES BELOW - THANK YOU

How Does It Work?

All practice stands at High Lodge are operated on a 'Pay & Play' basis. Our counter system supported by all automatic clay machines offers options for the solo shooter as well as voice activated targets on our Compak/Sportrap layouts.

Once you have checked in at reception, you will be provided with a counter card, which will count the clays as you use them. If you have any problems out on the ground, we ask that you call reception (contact number on every stand) so we can rectify any issues.

All clays are currently charged at £42.00 per 100 (£37.00 member's rates)

BUGGIES
Please note we do have a limited number of buggies available to hire (either half day or a full days hire). As we cannot guarantee buggies will always be available, we do advise you to pre-book your buggy by calling us on 01986 784347.
