Glorious Twelfth - Grouse Shooting Season Begins

Well today marks the start of the shooting season, when shooting parties take to the moorlands. This mainly takes place in Scotland where the grouse is predominantly found, however the moors of Yorkshire are also a popular place to go shooting for pheasant and grouse. I was reading in the Yorkshire Post how game shooting which has previously been seen as a male dominated past-time, is becoming more popular with women.

If you are interested in country pursuits then why not take a break here at Valley View Farm as we are ideally situated for outdoor activities.

You can also take part in a seasonal pheasant shoot at Duncombe Park between 1st September and 1st February.
