One of the UK's pre-eminent sporting estates, with 21,000 acres, is on the market at offers for over £25,000,000.
Savills has been instructed, as joint agents with Davis & Bowring, to sell the Tulchan estate.
The vast estate lies on the edge of the Cairngorm National Park, 40 miles south of Inverness, in Speyside, where majestic landscapes and whisky distilling, arguably the hallmarks of the Highlands, reign supreme.
This is an estate like no other: a real draw for lovers of country sports and a successful and diverse rural business that now forms an incredibly exciting opportunity.
Tulchan Sporting Estates Limited (TSEL) is seeking a new buyer to take the mantle from the Litchfield family, who have spent the last 23 years developing and improving the estate, its farms, its sport and its buildings.
At the core of the estate are eight miles of double bank fishing on the Spey, revered by fly fishermen the world over as one of the greatest of all salmon rivers.
Tulchan is also renowned for its first class pheasant shoot and historically its productive driven grouse shooting over its two grouse moors.
The estate offers guests a range of accommodation options, from holiday cottages to the Tulchan Lodge, a traditional Edwardian shooting lodge that sleeps 26; this historic house is at the heart of the estate and has in the past hosted politicians, princes and kings.
The in-hand farm and surrounding moorland support a commercial herd of Aberdeen Angus cattle and a Blackface sheep flock.
These currently provide beef and hill-fed lamb to the hospitality aspect of the estate, which is also almost self sufficient in fruit and vegetables from the kitchen garden.
"Tulchan is a magnificent highland estate offering some of the finest fly fishing for salmon in Scotland," says Savills’ Evelyn Channing.
"It’s the ultimate utopia for a passionate sportsman, or woman.
"For me personally, Tulchan, from river to moor, is simply one of the very best and we expect global interest in this unrivalled and precious piece of the Highlands."
