We are delighted to announce that in 2015, we will be working with Hunting Experiences and the Buccleuch and Queensberry Arms Hotel in Thornhill to offer a fantastic trip for two to stalk roe in beautiful Dumfriesshire this year. Accomodation for the prize winners will be at the stunning Buccleuch and Queensberry Arms, recently described by the Shooting Gazette magazine as "stylish and comfortable", being set in "a stunning part of Scotland with long, wide valleys and dramatic hills providing seemingly endless vistas of unspoilt countryside" - what more could you ask?
Dumfries and Galloway offers the perfect balance between accessibility and seclusion, with Glasgow, Edinburgh and Carlisle all within short driving distance. Over the past few years, south west Scotland has really come into its own as a sporting destination, now boasting some of the finest shooting and fieldsports anywhere in Britain, all set in wild, gorgeous countryside. The Prize can be taken any time at a date to suit the winners, providing a fantastic opportunity to explore this hidden corner of Scotland. Bucks or does are both available according to the season.
Tickets for the Prize Draw are now on sale on the Heather Trust website at £10 each, and the draw itself will take place on May 1st 2015. All proceeds from the Prize Draw and Sale go to fund the important work of the Heather Trust, promoting the very best in integrated moorland management for sport, conservation and agriculture.
