These are always small groups of 6 guys max + a team leader.

Accomodation is either in a modern hotel with your own on suite double bedroom or in a self catering 'Barn' type lodging run by a seniro member.

Prices vary depending on what the 'Barn' leader is offering so contact them directly.

 

The 'Barn' teams are run by a very experienced Senior members from North America who have a team of 6 guys max- you can hunt just one field or all 300 + on offer during your trip. You have old ancient sites and brand new farms to pick from. You choose.

They have their own mini bus and come and go on any of the fields, for as many hours as they like on each detecting each day. They decide where they wish to to stay in any of the self catering Barn's on this site.

All accommodation has the same free roaming of our fields with ID, photographing and export license applications included in the trip.
