COUNTRY CAPERS

Quad Biking
After an instruction and safety briefing, individuals will be given the chance to test their skills and courage on our purpose built off road track. The track has been designed to suit all abilities, with cambers, inclines, water obstacles and extreme gradients where precision riding is more important than speed. All our bikes are automatic and easily controlled providing a safe but thrilling challenge.

4x4 Off-Road Driving
Learn how to drive a 4x4 vehicle under the supervision of a qualified instructor on our purpose built course. Experience the thrill of driving over steep inclines, angled traverses, mud pits and terrifying descents. Our blind folded driving around an obstacle course is particularly thrilling.

Blindfold Driving
The team take it in turns to drive a course. The driver, however, is blindfolded, and the rest of the team must shout directions and instructions – very funny

Assault Course
On our military standard assault course, clients will be able to put themselves and their colleagues through a series of obstacles that will challenge clients with all levels of fitness. This is a team activity that promotes team bonding and leadership qualities due to the fact that the team can only proceed at the speed of the slowest team member regardless of fitness. You will be guided through the course with a demonstration from our qualified military instructor.

Falconry (must be pre-booked)
Fly one of our Harris Hawks under the supervision of our experienced falconer. You will be able to launch the bird from your hand and then recall them. This first hand experience is one you will not forget .

Shooting
Make your day go with a bang

Rifle Shooting
Under the supervision of our qualified instructor you will be able to experience the challenge of .22 rifle shooting, using a semi-automatic rifle fitted with a telescopic sight.

CLAY PIGEON SHOOTING

Why not try a shot or two? The traps will be set to suit your party's individual needs and can be made as easy or as difficult as you wish.

Clay Pigeon Shooting is a great way to offer your clients or staff a fun and relaxing day in surroundings so very different from the office. How about running a different sales meeting by using our facilities for the meeting, with a shoot to follow

All guns and clays are provided as part of the package, but regular shooters can, of course, bring their own guns

Game Birds & Stalking
We are situated on one of Scotland's most famous shooting estate’s Carnell Estate and can organise shoots at other estates throughout Scotland.

Carnell Estates has an established pheasant shoot of exceptionally high quality which is capable of producing 275 plus birds a day (loaders can be provided).

Grouse shooting is available in August, partridge in October and duck and pheasant shooting in November and December. Goose flighting and pigeon decoying can be easily arranged as can roe and red deer stalking.

TEAM BUILDING ACTIVITIES

Teambuilding activities provide enormous fun as part of a multi activity day combining motorised activities and country sports such as Rifle Shooting and Archery

Blindfold Driving
The team take it in turns to drive a course. The driver, however, is blindfolded, and the rest of the team must shout directions and instructions – very funny

Tug of War
The old favourite with teams competing in a knockout competition to see who is the strongest. Teamwork is key as we make sure teams are as even as possible

Family Fun Days are a great opportunity to reward staff and thank families for their ongoing support. They are often held as summer events with a BBQ and activities for all the family but every event is different and we welcome the opportunity to put together a tailored package for you!
