somwere in the north of england would be my bet, but surly you would have to think about your job first.

Only have a small gardening business, can set up pretty much anywhere, or I can always go back on the game!

Grass is allways greener on the otherside.

 

Ireland, is low in rabbit numbers in most places, in my opinion, but, their is pockets of them about and their is a good few in these spots, nowt like Northern Uk, or Scotland though, from what i see and hear.

 

One thing i do know, is well protected over here and can only be taken under licence, is the Irish hare.

Again, not as big a population of hares, as their is in the UK, their everywhere over their, in most parts from what my brother tells me whos lives over their.

Cheers for that Frank, will keep my eyes peeled for them!

how about camarthen in our very own welsh wales, not too far and lots of farmland, i havent been there for years hunting , but the farmers were overjoyed to have someone keeping the red numbers down, not sure about house prices though , good luck with your quest mate !

Got a few farms down there but can't afford to live there! You're right about the red ones though.

There's areas in Scotland that are dirt cheap but would you choose to live in them.

 

Hawick is really cheap compared to most places. Galashiels is reasonable.

 

The lothians are getting silly. I live in Midlothian and prices are crazy. West lothian is cheaper and Edinburgh is a defenate no no. Mega expensive.

the likes of falkirk, stirling etc are reasoble too.

 

By reasoable I mean affordable on an average salary.

Try Ashington in Northumberland, lurcher mecca. Everyone and their aunt have lurchers in their yards.

Moll.

Thanks for that - sounds like a popular place for us dog lads (and their aunts)!

house prices in west cork ireland are still dog handy for what city houses are and u are tottally surrounded with green and u needent even ask for permisson here the farmers want em hunted so much just my opinion

Sounds great, that's another one to think about. I need to get round and visit some of these places over the next months so I'll have an idea for myself too. Thanks.

[davidlloyd 16]

depnds what you like running mate, im from the north east and to be honest there isnt that much game about, and most people have lurchers up this way, thats why we travel south for most of our fun, its a different world down there for stuff to run in my opinion.

Sorry to be a bit of a retard but I'm geographically dyslexic and have no idea where North east and South are! Give me names of counties at least! Cheers

[davidlloyd 16]

come to glasgow ,loads of work ,,,,if you want to that is ..and loads of game 10 minutes out of town ..just bring your umbrella as it rains all the time .....

Used to that down here in Wales, must be great to have it all on your doorstep though. Some people on here sound so lucky

I have quite a few mates from the north-east who think its worth the 5 hour drive to run their dogs down here,we have a lot of "variety"

Must be good if they travel that far? What species of deer do you get round there? Thanks

[davidlloyd 16]

you should move to carlisle mate its great for every kind of quarry.

Whats the house prices like up there?

Loads of quarry to hunt in the south of england, depends what your into on the location though. Plenty of rabbits, hares and foxes see the occasional deer as well . Joe

Sounds great but I think the properties there would be a bit 'deer' for me!

[bullcross1 10]

haha good try mate am not giving me hunting spots out for the whole country to see

Dont get me wrong they is pockets of roe about here and there as av killed plenty around my way pre ban off course, but nothing like the fallow numbers etc that u get further down the country.

Good luck on your quest any ways and let us no how you get on

Av thought about it myself lately, moving south maybe a will in a year or 2 time

I usually carry a rucksack whilst lamping, do you think I'd be safe there?
