The 21,768-acre Tulchan Estate in the Scottish Highlands has been put up for sale for £67m.
The estate, which is owned by Tulchan Sporting Estates Limited (TSEL), is steeped in royal heritage and set amongst the dramatic landscape of the River Spey to the east of Cairngorms National Park.
Tulchan Estate was once a favoured escape of Edward VII, George V and George VI and is now a highly diversified rural enterprise with multiple revenue streams. At the heart of the estate stands Tulchan Lodge, a Category B‑listed Edwardian lodge completed in 1906 and comprehensively refurbished in 2018.
The lodge comprises 14 ensuite bedrooms, five reception rooms, a cinema, wine tasting room and a recently added spa complex featuring sauna, steam room, treatment suite and outdoor Japanese hot tub.
The estate also includes Knocktulchan Lodge, a six‑bedroom property, and 28 further estate dwellings, including four holiday cottages with strong occupancy and repeat bookings.
There is a productive in‑hand livestock farm, supported by five tenanted farms, which supplies the estate with home‑reared beef, lamb and game, extensive native woodland, commercial forestry and the potential for future renewable energy schemes
The estate also provides eight miles of double‑bank salmon fishing across four private beats on the River Spey, two driven grouse moors extending to more than 13,000 acres and a high‑bird pheasant shoot offering 25 to 30 days per season, in addition to red and roe deer stalking, wild duck flighting and a hill loch with brown trout
Luke French, head of rural agency, Savills Scotland, which has been appointed to market the opportunity, said: “Tulchan is an estate like no other. Multi-faceted rural enterprises of this calibre and scale are rare. A world class hospitality offering runs in parallel with environmental stewardship of this glorious landscape. The vision to create something truly special is inspiring. The opportunity it offers is unmatched in Scotland today.”
