Phoines Estate, Scottish Highlands We are delighted to be able to offer the letting of a wide range of sporting opportunities available on the Phoines Estate. Phoines is a traditional mixed Highland sporting Estate covering some 20,000 acres of the Cairngorms National Park, offering guests fantastic opportunities to shoot a range of game and we are delighted to be able to offer the most exclusive and tailormade packages to meet all requirements. The Estate also benefits from having its own accommodation on site in the form of Phoines Lodge; a classic Scottish Lodge set at the foot of the impressive Cairngorm hills, providing the ideal location for teams to relax during their stay. The lodge benefits from a large sitting room and a beautiful dining room, both of which are ideal for entertaining guests. The closest airport is Inverness, which is approximately one hour’s drive from the Estate and the “sleeper” train can conveniently be taken from London to Kingussie, which is a mere 10 minutes from the Estate. Otherwise car access is excellent with the A9 running nearby. Mini Driven / Walked-Up Days Phoines ability to provide superb rough and walked up low ground shooting is unrivalled, and has been described as possibly the very best low ground mini driven and walked-up shooting the UK has to offer. The estate boasts the most beautiful and varied terrain, providing ideal habitat for a range of species and lending to a diverse range of shooting, all within the stunning Cairngorms National Park. Teams can expect a variety of target species to include; pheasant, partridge, snipe, rabbit, pigeon, and duck. The days, which are offered from late-October onwards, can be tailored to suit individual teams requirements, but are generally set at 35-50 head, depending on the teams shooting ability. The days are structured in a relaxed and informal manner, largely shaped by the client’s requirements. During the day, the guns will walk in a line and shoot game as it rises in front. Guns may also be strategically placed below a cover or thicket while the keepers flush game in a mini-driven style. There will be opportunities for the team to take short breaks during the day at their leisure, with a picnic lunch also being provided. The days are charged at a fixed price of £1,850 per day for a team of up to six guns. If teams wish to shoot more than 35-50 head we would of course be delighted to quote accordingly. Grouse will not be a target species offered on these days. However, if the opportunity does arise and a grouse flushes, the team is welcome to shoot them within the quoted price season depending. Duck Flighting Duck flighting is available on a number of the Estate’s duck ponds. Duck flights can be included in a day’s sport on the Estate and works particularly well for those guests staying at Phoines Lodge. Duck flights will be priced on request. Ptarmigan Shooting The Estate can offer, if stocks allow, the rare opportunity to shoot walked-up Ptarmigan. The anticipated bag of Ptarmigan would be one brace per gun, with a maximum of four guns, priced at £850 per gun. Hill Loch Fishing Hill loch fishing is available on two of the Estate’s lochs; one situated a short distance from the lodge and the other found in the hills at the foot of a beautiful Munro. These lochs have a mixture of stocked trout and some impressive wild brown trout, which can reach a reasonable size. Hill loch fishing will be priced on request. Accommodation Phoines lodge is a traditional sporting lodge with all the features a shoot party requires. The facilities include a large dining room and sitting room with an open fire as well as an onsite Gun room. The lodge has the ability to sleep a total of 19 guests in 10 rooms. The letting of these rooms is on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis, with no drinks (alcohol or otherwise) provided. Drinks must be provided by the team and can be delivered in time for your arrival. The lodge is priced at £140 per person per night or a minimum of £840 per night. Please do not hesitate to be in touch if this is indeed of further interest.
