La Mancha, Spain
Ventosilla is the most famous of all Spanish shoots and its reputation is rightly earned. The Palace was built in the 15th century by the wealthily and powerful cardinals of Toledo as their private hunting estate and their descendants still own and run the estate to this day. The estate has 60 drives covering many thousands of acres enabling guests to decide whatever type of shooting they would like to experience.
On arrival at the Palace, you will spend the rest of that afternoon getting settled. In the evening you can enjoy a drink by one of the numerous roaring fires before you retire to the dining room for sumptuous supper. The days shooting commence after breakfast, with guests returning to the Palace at the end of the day.
The Palace can accommodate up to 12 guns along with their non-shooting partners, in historic but tastefully modernised en-suite bedrooms. Each corridor of the Palace is decorated with numerous hunting trophies from around the world which have been carefully collected by the family over the years.
