Gordon Castle Estate Gordon Castle Estate is located in Moray / Speyside in the wild and dramatic North East of Scotland. The estate is a traditional sporting estate with 6 miles of fishing on the River Spey as well as a longstanding game shoot, roe deer stalking and duck flighting. The estate has a variety of accommodation to suit individuals up to large parties. Gordon Castle is the ancient home of the Dukes and Duchesses of Gordon. It has huge historical significance and visitors often comment on the feeling that they are surrounded by the splendour of the past. Our focus is on providing an experience to our guests that they’re unlikely to find elsewhere. Whilst we are a sporting provider, we encourage guests to enjoy Moray / Speyside for all it has to offer rather than only focus on a single activity. The sporting ethos is traditional. Without exception all the game shot on the estate is eaten and enjoyed. We believe in shooting smaller numbers of birds and animals which have lived well, rather than unnaturally large numbers. We believe that conservation and biodiversity means that nature ‘gets a share’ and therefore we only control vermin that is both legal and a nuisance. We want guests to enjoy their experience and are happy to tailor a programme to their needs and levels of experience. We prioritise safety and are happy to spend time with a novice shooter to develop their skills and confidence. https://countrysportscotland.com/member/gordon-castle-estate/ Sport Offered Gordon Castle offers: Salmon Fishing on the River Spey Roe Stalking Pheasant shooting (Wild and driven days) Duck Flighting (wild duck) Woodcock, pigeon and goose shooting (all wild) Stalking Roe Deer Doe open season is – 21st Oct to 31st Mar Buck open season is – Apr 1st to Oct 31st (no longer legal restriction) Stalking is on woodland edge, river bank and coastal.
