Insurance
Driven game shooting is a dangerous sport and although I try to assess and avoid risks, accidents may happen. When you are on the shooting field you need to have the confidence that the Shoot, your fellow guns and you are adequately insured in the event of accident or injury.
With the increasing cost of litigation it is now necessary to have a minimum indemnity cover of £10 Million third party public and personal liability insurance.
I confirm that The Mountgarret Shoot has this level of cover, however in the event of a claim for an accident or injury caused by a member or guest, the first port of call will be on the person’s own insurance.
I must therefore insist that anyone shooting with us on any area under the management of The Mountgarret Shoot should ensure that they and their guests have the required minimum cover of £10 Million third party, public and personal liability insurance in place well in advance of joining a shoot day and carry proof of this on all shoot days.
This cover is available through GunsOnPegs Premium or Membership of BASC, The Countryside Alliance or similar organisations. To enquire about public liability insurance please call the team at GunsOnPegs on 0207 491 1363
Cancellation of Booking
If you wish to cancel a gun you have already booked, providing a minimum of 30 days’ notice is given, the gun may be cancelled and either another date chosen or a full refund given. This applies to bookings of up to two guns on any one day. Should you wish to cancel three guns or more on any one day, a refund will only be given at our absolute discretion and subject to us being able to re-sell the cancelled guns (which may be possible depending on the time of the season and provided sufficient notice is given).
When a booking is made out of the 30 day cancellation period i.e. with less than 30 days remaining before the shoot day, should you find it is necessary to cancel the day the full shoot fee is due (and if already paid, no refund will be given) or you can send a safe replacement gun to shoot your peg. Should you be unable to send someone in your place, we will try and sell your gun at a discount on your behalf.
