Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We had a great afternoon of clay pigeon shooting in a family group ranging in ages from 15 to 82. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it and the team were fantastic - really patient, helpful and good at instructing, and clearly genuinely enthusiastic about sharing their sport with a bunch of amateurs. We can totally recommend and hope to do it again.

We all had a fantastic time learning to be Archers and I know it was because of your excellent teaching. You explained everything so clearly making each element so easy to understand and put into practice. You also struck the right balance between the necessary authority to keep us safe and encouragement and humour to help us relax as we developed our new skills.
Thank you also for being so accommodating and generous over the timings
All in all thank you for a great afternoon it was everything I had hoped for AND more

Matthew and Stewart helped us to arrange a fantastic bespoke archery experience for 21 adults. The session lasted 2 hours and much fun was had by all! Everyone hit the target and we really enjoyed the day. We highly recommend Birds Hill Days for your next holiday in the Quantocks!

Excellent communication in booking our clay pigeon shooting in August. I was quite slow at replying to emails and Matthew was very patient! We had 14 people participating, the instructions and guidance was very clear and we had a blast!
There was an even split of males vs females and they accommodated our needs well of some being experienced to non-experienced.
Matthew also recommended the pub next door which also had a lovely lunch.
It was definitely worth the money and a really fun activity with family!
It was windy at the top of the hill so I would recommend people to wrap up warm, even in August it was a little chilly! A definite activity to participate in.

A really memorable way to spend a couple of hours with friends in the beautiful Somerset countryside. Matthew and Stewart were excellent guides who patiently introduced our group of ten total (and slightly hungover) beginners to the finer points of clay shooting. The morning's class was fun, well organised, and excellent value for money. Matthew even booked a table for us at Raleghs Cross Inn for lunch afterwards.
Would highly recommend and will certainly think of doing it again!

We are a family of 4, holidaying in the area. All of us green to shooting, of any kind. Matthew (assisted by Stewart) was an excellent teacher, with safety at the fore he was very instructive, calm and encouraging. We had all hit clays by the end of the session with one of the group, under such excellent instruction and remedial assistance, turning out to be quite a marksman.
I would highly recommend Birds Hill if you are considering Clay Shooting experience.

.An excellent introduction to clay shooting delivered by Matthew in a calm and friendly manner appropriate to the competence level of the participants. Altogether a highly professional session.

Absolutely fantastic! We were a group of 8 and were in safe hands with Matthew and Stewart. Really well organised and great instructions given to ensure we were hitting clays. We had such a good laugh and they made it really competitive. Massive thank you to them both really made our holiday
