Savills along with Davis & Bowring have been instructed to sell Tulchan Sporting Estates Limited (TSEL), a 21,000-acre estate that lies on the edge of Cairngorm National Park, 40 miles south of Inverness.

The estate is well-known to lovers of country sports as it contains one of the greatest salmon rivers, a first-class pheasant shoot and productive driven grouse shooting.

TSEL has been developed and improved over the last 23 years, including the estate, its farms and its buildings to an “exceptional” level. 

The estate also offers guests a wide range of accommodation options, from a two-bedroom holiday cottage to the impressive Edwardian Tulchan Lodge, which sleeps 26.

An in-hand farm and surrounding moorland support a commercial herd of Aberdeen Angus cattle and a Blackface sheep flock, which provide beef and hill-fed lamb to the hospitality aspect of the estate.

A number of let farms, houses and cottages also fall within the ownership of TSEL.

“Tulchan is a magnificent highland estate offering some of the finest fly fishing for salmon in Scotland,” said Evelyn Channing of Savills.  

“It’s the ultimate utopia for a passionate sportsman or woman.”

Evelyn added that Tulchan has “a really special magic about it” that is present whatever the season and stunning scenery. 

“For me personally, Tulchan, from river to moor, is simply one of the very best [estates] and we expect global interest in this unrivalled and precious piece of the Highlands.”
