Hunting and Shooting

A range of different fieldsports can be experienced using Balbirnie as a base for accommodation and dining, and travelling to a number of private estates within Fife and Perthshire on day visits.

Within thirty minutes drive from Balbirnie, both driven and walked-up pheasant shooting can be arranged on local estates (with the shooting season running from October to January).

For those prepared to drive a little further North, the opportunities are even greater. Dates are often set aside a year in advance for different types of shoots at particular estates and are therefore more difficult for us to secure unless you are very flexible with dates. However, some estates do offer bookings with a shorter lead in time.

Costs usually start from £150 per gun per day for walked-up shoots. Roebuck deer stalking can also be organised between May-July around the Perthshire area.

OTHER SPORTING ACTIVITIES IN FIFE

Balbirnie is ideally located to participate in a wide range of different sporting activities and we have special arrangements with many local specialists, all with super facilities. We are very happy to discuss the alternatives. Please not that we can only organise activities for residents staying at the hotel and for corporate clients hosting conferences at Balbirnie. It is worth mentioning that for those not interested in sports, there are so many other things to do in and around the area-please refer to our Sightseeing section.
