Driven Partridge shooting - Mallorca
Las Barracas in the south-east of Mallorca offers the most luxury and best Partridge shooting on the Island.
The Partridge Shooting Estate Las Barracas
Mallorca is one of the most famous holiday destinations in Europe - visited by guests from all over the world, offering spectacular scenery, beautiful beaches and top-rated luxury hotels and accommodation. But few people know that Mallorca is also home to one of the best red legged partridge shooting estates in Spain. Las Barracas, situated between Calviá and Andratx, covers almost 1,200 hectares and offers stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Tramuntana mountains. The area's unique terrain, climate and vegetation make it the ideal location for both driven and walked partridge shooting between September and the following spring. During the shooting season, this is the most temperate area in Mallorca, with average temperatures between 18º and 20ºC, a mild autumn with evergreen landscapes from October, almond blossom in February and long, warm sunny days with clear skies until April.
The Shoot
Our traditional driven partridge shoots are organised for groups of up to 10 guns with an anticipated bag of 400-600 partridges per day over 5 drives. Each gun is provided with its own loader (double guns are used) and a secretary. The shooting team will ensure that an average of 4,000 partridges fly over the pegs each day, with varying levels of difficulty, height and speed, according to the ability of the group. The excellent team of professional gamekeepers, beaters, loaders, kitchen staff, etc. allows us to guarantee our guests unforgettable shooting days.
Our famous "tapas" and light refreshments served during the shoot and a superb meal in the main house at the end of the day (worthy of a luxury restaurant) are the perfect culmination to an unforgettable shooting experience. The Lodge has a huge collection of almost 20 pairs different double and side-by-side shotguns in all calibres and sizes, so there is no need to bring your gun to Mallorca.
The Lodge
Since spring 2018 we are hosting the groups in the newly built "Las Barracas Country Lodge". Here we offer 14 comfortable and luxurious rooms with en-suite bathrooms - well stocked bar and restaurant, 2 living rooms with fireplaces - huge garden and pool. The perfect place to relax after a hard day's shooting.
During the non shooting season the Lodge can be booked for luxury family holidays, weddings & formal parties as well as corporate events and presentations.
