Altyre estate is a sleeping giant, steeped in the history of the Gordon Cumming family, lying on the outskirts of Forres in the county of Moray. The last five years has seen the 12,000 acre estate grow from a small family shoot of one hundred bird days to a shoot that can accommodate up to 300 bird days with 2013/14 seeing an overall bag for the season of 5000 birds.
The gullies and woodlands of Altyre estate offer a varied terrain where you can enjoy a unique days sport. You are rewarded with the challenge of high flying quality birds. Feature drives include Daisies, Bruntlands, The Burn, The Ruins, Squirrel Wood and Situation Point.
The day begins in the club room where you are greeted by the laird, Sir Alastair Gordon Cumming and his team. Peg numbers are drawn, followed by a quick safety talk and then on to the first drive. There are three drives before lunch and one drive in the afternoon. A homemade lunch is provided as part of the day.
At the end of the last drive it is back to the club room where the bag is counted and everyone can reflect on their excellent days shooting on an old highland estate.
The shoot caters for corporate parties, private roving syndicates, small parties and individual guns.
Inverness airport is within 30 minutes away. Top class accommodation within easy reach.

We shot on Altyre's first day of the season, the birds flew very well for their first time over guns, everyone had a great day, as well as really good shooting, it is run by a very friendly professional team. It was also nice that the shoot day was hosted by the estate owner. Definitely a shoot worth travelling to.

I have been lucky enough to shoot driven game for 40 years. The birds on the first two drives at Altyre this week would have challenged any gun i have been priveleged to shoot with in that time. An exceptional team with decades of experience behind them is the 'how and why' this shoot is going places.

High quality pheasants on every drive. Great shooting on every peg. Shoot is set in stunning, old caledonian woodlands. Lots of natural deep, gullies that lends themselves well to shoot high birds. Well worth a visit.
