Lochnell Castle is an historic estate on Scotland's west coast just a few miles north of the port town of Oban. Due to our spectacular coastal setting looking out over the Atlantic towards the Isles of Lismore and Mull, you will enjoy breathtaking views whilst on your peg. We offer early season partridge shooting in September and October. There is also the opportunity to combine your driven partridge day with a day or two stalking red deer during the rut on the hills surrounding Lochnell. Woodcock shooting is available from November onwards. We can cater for all preferences from 3-4 day sporting packages (woodcock, stalking and partridge) through to single driven or walked up days. We aim to accommodate all your sporting preferences and adapt our packages accordingly so as to maximise your experience with us.

Hospitality
Accommodation will be provided with our partner hotels nearby. Typically this is with either The Pierhouse Hotel, The Isle of Eriska Hotel or Barcaldine Castle. All hotels are a short drive from the estate.
Birds
We offer fast contouring partridge in the spanish style
Topography
The topography of the shooting grounds is a mixture of native oak woodland, heather, rocky coastline and beaches. The partridge days will be organised in such a way as to keep the birds moving, typically contouring the landscape to provide fast and testing birds. A few drives will evoke similarities to short sharp driven grouse drives.
About the hosts
You will be hosted by either Stephen Sloss or Archie Cochrane on the day.

A team of all ladies with plenty of inexperienced shots among us. Perfect volume of birds providing lots of opportunities of all kinds, high, crossers, shooting them behind, some hugging the landscape which you're allowed to shoot when told it's safe by the keeper. Such a different experience and a truely amazing day, made even better by gorgeous views and great hospitality.
