Wildlife Hide Information

General Information on sessions, prices and rules.

01/01/2026
We have a selection of wildlife hides, purpose built and located in differing habitats giving a wide range of photographic opportunities.
Each hide comes with a comfortable chair and a Gimbal head mounted on a camera rail, using an Arca Swiss Style quick release plate.
Suitable warm clothing should be worn, we are on a hill, it gets windy and cold.
During wet weather it is advisable to wear wellingtons or waterproof walking boots, this is a farm not a public park and tracks get muddy in poor weather.
We are a private nature reserve for use by wildlife photographers, by appointment only.

Take note:

These are wild subjects - there are no guarantees.

No further fees unless you want sole occupancy or back to back sessions in one hide in a single day. You pay the balance over the €50.
Includes Free Range Fridays
You must book your hide in advance in the usual way.
No block bookings spanning more than a week in a single hide.
If we are so busy that there are no places in the hides available, members would have access to the rest of the site, Free Range, but understandably cannot set up within 100 feet of a paid hide. This leaves you with plenty other locations to choose from, covering a wide range of habitats.
This is an individual membership that cannot be shared, proof of identification must be shown.
