Walking
If you are renting one of our holiday cottages, you would be welcome to walk on over 20 miles of attractive rides and paths through the Estate's beautiful private woodland and farmland. These rides were made early in the last century for pony trap access throughout the Estate. Coupled with the spectacular countryside, this makes the Estate an ideal spot for walkers.

Fishing
Llyn Syberi has been let to the Bodelwyddan Game Anglers; the lake contains specimen Roach, Tench, Perch, Eels and Rainbow Trout. Day permits are available from Bodnant Garden Centre and Eglwysbach Post Office and cost £6 per day. For enquiries about fishing on Llyn Syberi, please contact William (Bill) Wilkes direct on: Tel. 01745 334935 or e-mail bill@gameanglers.co.uk website: www.gameanglers.co.uk.

Shooting
The lie of the land on the Estate, hilly and extensively wooded with relatively small stands of woodland, makes for shooting of the very highest quality, with high and fast birds. The shooting on the Estate has been divided into four parts, and each part let to a different lessee.

The main part of the shoot on the Estate, comprising the best shooting, has been let to Paddy Byrne. Whole days (for 8 guns), or single guns, can be bought. If you are interested in shooting on the Estate, please contact Paddy Byrne on 0035 3872 647391.

Riding
We are hoping to develop the opportunities for riding on the Estate, including restoring more of the private rides and making the gates more rider-friendly. Unfortunately, we are not yet able to offer this - but please bear us in mind if you wish to take an equestrian holiday in future.

We hope in due course to be able to offer some or all of the following equestrian facilities:

• pony trekking
• equestrian holidays (for those bringing their own horses with them)
• riding for those living locally (on a subscription basis)
• livery stable facilities
• a cross-country course
• the use of a manege
