The Story

The most prestigious shooting portfolio in the United Kingdom, Loyton offers a refined introduction to traditional English-driven wingshooting. Endorsed by Orvis for its shared values of sportsmanship, fieldcraft, and stewardship, Loyton is defined by its philosophy to maintain the highest standards—placing equal emphasis on the enjoyment of the day, the presentation of the birds, and exceptional hospitality.

Each day is meticulously planned and drives are varied, encouraging guests to focus on timing, line, and etiquette rather than volume alone. Loyal, disciplined working dogs are central to the experience, working seamlessly with highly regarded gamekeepers whose knowledge of the countryside and commitment to safety set the tone for every shoot.

What truly distinguishes Loyton is its approach to hospitality. Guests are welcomed as friends, not clients, and first-time visitors to the UK are guided through every aspect of the day, from dress and equipment to field traditions and customs, ensuring confidence and enjoyment from the first drive to the final peg.

From crisp mornings in the field to fireside conversations at day’s end, Loyton delivers an authentic English sporting experience rooted in tradition, care for the countryside, and the enduring pleasure of a well-run day in the field.

Hospitality forms an integral part of the Loyton experience. With four principle houses available to accommodate shooting guests, there is great choice, and each shoot has its own bespoke shooting lodge to use as the base for all shoot day activities.

Guests enjoy hearty breakfasts, elevenses in the field served from the renowned Land Rover bars, and relaxed lunches or dinners featuring seasonal, locally sourced produce. Evenings are typically informal and convivial, centred around open fires, good food, and conversation.

Accommodation arrangements are tailored to each group, and the Loyton concierge team is happy to advise on the best options based on group size, shooting schedule, and travel plans.

A typical Loyton shoot day includes:

  • Morning gathering, briefing & introductions
  • Two to three driven shoots before lunch
  • Traditional elevenses served in the field
  • Relaxed lunch at the shoot lodge or in the countryside
  • Afternoon drives followed by a formal close
  • Evening meal in the shoot lodge

Additional details:

  • Gun hire & cartridges can be arranged
  • Guidance provided for U.S. guests on UK shooting customs
  • Dogs are integral to the day and always present

Loyton places strong emphasis on safety, etiquette, and enjoyment, ensuring guests feel comfortable and well looked after throughout the day.

Loyton Sporting operates across a diverse landscape of rolling farmland, ancient woodland, wooded valleys, and open hillsides throughout Exmoor.

The estates are carefully managed year-round, with a strong focus on conservation, habitat improvement, and sustainable shoot management. Hedgerows, cover crops, woodland edges, and traditional planting all contribute to healthy bird populations and exceptional dog work.

This classic English countryside, shaped over generations, provides a beautiful and authentic backdrop for driven shooting—with changing light, seasonal colour, and a strong sense of place that defines the Loyton experience.

Shooting rates vary depending on estate, date, and group size. Loyton Sporting offers both private and shared days, with tailored arrangements for international guests.
