Sporting

Fishing
Fishing for salmon, sea trout on Loch Fincastle which has two boats.
Sea pools nearby which are fishable from the bank.
Salmon fishing on Loch Laxdale – apparently the smallest natural salmon loch in the world! This loch has a boat which is essential for covering the best lies.
The record salmon is 16lb 2oz and the record sea-trout is 13lb.

There are other lochs on the estate providing wild brown trout and sea trout.
After a few summer spates, the majority of the large sea-trout entering the Laxdale River travel further up beyond Loch Laxdale to Loch na h-Aibhne Garbh and Loch Bearasta Mor. These upper lochs provide good opportunities for targeting wild brown trout and some of these big sea trout. One of these lochs, Loch Bearasta Mor, has a boat available. The Estate also has similar fishing available on three other minor migratory systems. The Luskentyre system, the Borve system and the Carron system, amounting to a further nine lochs offering bank fishing for wild brown trout with the chance of sea trout later in the season.

Lobster potting and mackerel fishing is available from the estate boat.

Two ghillies are available if required.

Shooting & Stalking
Stalking takes place on the island of Taransay and is run in compliance with the Estate’s deer management programme.

If required, stalking and shooting can also be arranged through local providers at other locations on Lewis and Harris (at an additional cost and subject to availability).
