Partridge Shooting at La Nava, Ciudad Real
A compact, tightly keepered finca of around 3,200 hectares where Ciudad Real runs down towards the Andalucían border. Drives sit close together and the day is unhurried, which suits a party that would rather shoot well than shoot a lot. Big game and stalking can be arranged alongside the partridge.

A smaller estate shoots differently. Drives are close together, travel between them is short, and the day has an unhurried rhythm — which suits a party that wants to shoot well rather than simply shoot a lot.
The position on the edge of the Sierra Morena foothills gives more relief than the open plains further north. Where the ground rises, partridge can be shown genuinely high.
For guns who want to combine a driven partridge programme with stalking or big game in the same trip, this is the estate on the shortlist that makes that straightforward. Tell us what you want to add and we will put the itinerary together.
The Value of our Shooting Package — La Nava
What a fully inclusive package covers here — full board on the estate in the staffed hacienda, all wines, spirits and soft drinks, return transfers from Madrid-Barajas, and ammunition, Spanish gun and hunting licences — with the point that overage is counted per gun, so each gun pays only for the birds it has shot.

How a Spanish Driven Day Runs
Driven Partridge shoots in Spain differ slightly from the UK in the manner that the day is conducted. A typical day consists of 4 or 5 drives and as the days are still quite long the day can operate in a relaxed but professional manner. Tapas will be taken after 2 drives (and after drive 4 on a 5 drive day) Lunch will be at the days end so there is no rush at all. The birds are fast and furious and test even the best guns. The weather is normally good so all can be Al-Fresco. You are always supplied with a loader or “stuffer” who carries all you gear and generally looks after you, this all combines to give you an overall most enjoyable experience.
