Str33t Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Completed my DSC level 1 last weekend with Jelen Deer services. What a Fantastic crowd, thoroughly enjoyed the weekend and was well looked after. The Venison Stew we were all served for lunch was really good and even managed to get an evening in the high seat on Saturday night! The Guys have all got a massive wealth of Knowledge and were really helpful with any questions any of us had. Keep up the good work would definatley recomend these guys to anyone wanting to do this course!! Thanks for a great weekend just a pity it went too fast!

Str33t Posted August 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Well done mate, i'm thinking to do mine next month with Jelen as well. Any tips with accomodation over the weekend in Stockport or i'm better of comuting (140 miles round trip) ? They're based down in Hampshire. They very kindly offered me accommodation in their porta cabin on site, just took a sleeping bag. Commuting isn't a good idea the course starts on the Friday night at 5:30 an we didn't finish until about 22:00. Then it's an 8:30 start Saturday morning until about 6 and then 8:30 Sunday until 2 so it would be quite tiring driving. Have a look on their website, they do suggest some local accommodation, but if your happy with a camp bed in a portal cabin then that's the best bet!

tomblincoe Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 The BDS are based in Fordingbridge but run their courses in Wimborne. I went with Jelen based on their reputation and the offer of a free stalk as I booked super early... Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craigyboy21 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 I'm hoping to do the DSC-1 course in Nov with Jelen, my sister lives in Stockbridge & I've been frequenting it & it's hostelries for years. I've tried to float the idea across to the Mrs that it would make a great Christmas present for me but I think I've got my work cut out for me!
