A family run shoot in the Pentland Hills 20 miles south of Edinburgh, and 30 minutes from Edinburgh Airport. Baddinsgill is a shooting estate which has been in the Marshall family since 1912. We have had time to get the woods just the way we like them! We have one day to let in January - a 100 - 150 bird day. With some excellent topography, we can promise you a truly memorable day with magnificent high birds. Lunch is provided in the family home, built in 1889 as a shooting lodge. Dates available are 9th, 10th or 11th January. £50-00 per bird.

Hospitality

You will be welcomed by Laura, our eldest daughter, who now lives in Baddinsgill House with her young family. She is the oldest of the fifth generation of the Marshall family. She loves catering, but before you get to witness the proof of that, you will be sat down in front of a roaring log fire with a warming drink in your hand!

Topography

Baddinsgill is located in a south facing basin, the land lying between 1000 and 2000 feet above sea level. the northern end of the estate is open moorland, with a reservoir in the middle, and all of the woods are centred around the southern end of the farm. with steeply sloping ground we can promise spectacular shooting!

Conservation Efforts

Baddinsgill has been part of an agri environment scheme for almost 20 years, the main thrust of this being the management of heather moorland, but attention is also paid to wetland management, water margins, species rich grassland, and tall herb communities. We are close to receiving Wildlife Estates Scotland accreditation. All of our woodlands are sustainably managed, and every house on the estate is heated with renewable energy.

About the hosts

As indicated above successive generations of Marshalls have been deriving huge enjoyment from managing the shoot at Baddinsgill, and take great pride in offering spectacular shooting. We are ably assisted by our gamekeeper, Fraser Kay, a young man who brings a wealth of experience and real enthusiasm to the role.
