Will Poon Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 Anyone suggest some top class clay clubs in Scotland preferably with accommodation that allow dogs as well, I'll be much appreciated as its proving hard to find on the Internet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVE_B Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Hi, Great Question Sadly I can't help but will be VERY interested in the answers as my wife, dogs and I are looking into the same thing for early next year. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canis Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 When i went ot Perthshire last year i took my gun and had a shoot at Dunkeld house which is a Hilton hotel. Nice posh ground but better suited to corporate entertainment /lessons. They had a driven grouse stand that was a lot of fun though! The folks who came with me( first timers) had a good introduction though and got far better value for money than i did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Poon Posted October 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 I think it may be easier to find a top class clay club in Scotland , then ask them for some recommendations for cottages or lodges in the vacinity to stay at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clanchief Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) There is a Big ground at North Ayrshire Shooting Ground, plenty of places to stay nearby.http://www.continentalshooting.co.uk/ Every discipline you want, and shop,services etc Was at Aviemore a month ago and shot at the Rothimurcus gound,http://www.rothiemurchus.net/ very nice sporting ground in Scots pine and heather moorland, can store guns for you whilst you are there for free, lots of places to stay nearby. I stayed at Fort Augustus in a log cabin in the woods, still a 90 minute drive to get there but it was worth it http://www.wildernes...y.php?id_cot=78 There are nicer places nearer but we wanted to stay there. Braidwood is a nice one too in the south of the country and has services http://www.braidwoodsc.co.uk/ Auchterhouse is nice ground with services at Dundee http://www.treemac.c...l/shooting.html These are only a few grounds that are open each day of the week, some grounds that I have not listed are weekends only. As far as I am aware the only place you can stay and shoot is the Hilton at Dunkeld,, maybe a few others but no dogs and too pricey to bother. If you have an area in mind I may be able to help further, with better info or local knowledge of places to stay.
