Game shooting in Berwickshire

Berwickshire, United Kingdom

Primrosehill  (TD11 3TL) is situated in Berwickshire – the shoot covers over 2,500 acres across 3 farms with the main drives taking place in the steep sided Whiteadder valley. Using bracken beds and cover crops and some well situated woods these are some of the most challenging pheasants and partridges to be found in the country. As an established high pheasant shoot very few birds are out of range, but most are extreme. We pride ourselves in delivering some of the very best days shooting available. For the 2026 season the shoot will be offering partridge days in September and October. We have accommodation available in our local coaching in within Duns 3miles away which is ideal for guns. Reviews from previous days: “I loved the day shooting at Primrosehill and its gets better & better..as a result I can only describe the day as epic” “when I think of some of the birds we saw during the second drive and wandering how one could get proficient at bringing them down” “your unfaltering display of stratospheric pheasants was truly remarkable and I can only apologise for the fact I was utterly outclassed” “in the first drive the birds were the best I have shot all season” We are a traditional shoot – it’s about the quality of the day and the sport on offer, coupled with the way the day is run.
