Autumn sporting package

A rare opportunity to enjoy autumn fishing on three prime Tweed beats alongside shooting at a renowned Border's pheasant shoot, plus fully-serviced accommodation.  The package would ideally suit 6 to 9 guests (plus spouses if applicable).  It includes fishing for 6 to 9 rods at Carham, South Wark and Lower North Wark on Monday 29 and Tuesday 30 November 2010 and two day's shooting for 6 to 9 guns.  The shoot dates are flexible and could be taken either before or after the fishing dates between Friday 26 November and Saturday 4 December 2010 inclusive.   Further details are set out below.

The Carham Shoot
Set in over 2,300 acres of varied, rolling farmland which straddles the Border, the Carham shoot includes approximately 150 acres of woodland stretching back over three miles from the River Tweed.  From a skeleton of larger woods, the shoot has grown over the years through a network of smaller coverts and the odd game strip designed to take advantage of the contours.  The open character of the countryside gives the wind every opportunity to play a part.  The shoot is based on pheasants, all home-reared or wild, with occasional guest appearances from wild partridges.  

The shooting element of the package is entirely flexible. The indicative price includes 2 days shooting for 6 to 9 guns based on 200 bird days. Guests may prefer large days or a smaller second day ending up with a wild duck flight.  A third day's shooting either before or after the fishing dates is also a possibility.  Shoot lunch is provided in the farmhouse.

Guide price for two 200 bird days £12,000 inc VAT

Accommodation

Accommodation can be provided at a choice of several exclusive lodges nearby for 6 to 18 guests. The services of a full time cook and housekeeper are available.  Accommodation can be arranged for a week or we can tailor your stay to include just the sporting days. Transport, fishing and shooting equipment hire and tuition and activities for non-fishing guests can also be arranged at additional cost. 

Guide price from £1,000.00 to £4,000.00 depending upon length of stay and party numbers.
