No, he did not have a stunt double; although, stunt doubles were implemented in the movie!

NO I DON'T THINK HE HAD A STUNT DOUBLE

Probably. He doesn't seem like the toughest guy in the world. He probably would have a stunt double if a scene called for a woman to slap him.

Don't quote me on it, but I remember hearing in a Making Of documentary that he did as many of the stunts himself as they would allow. Orlando Bloom isn't the toughest looking dude in the world, but he is a sort of daredevil as far as actors go. There were certain scenes where they used doubles (I think the shield-surfing scene in the Battle of Helm's Deep in The Two Towers was one of them), but for the most part it was him.
