Countryside Walks, Hikes & Relaxing

We are very fortunate to be surrounded by some incredible landscape, scenery and areas of outstanding natural beauty. The peace and quiet at Ethie completely disconnects a person from the world.

Hunting

Deer hunting, known widely as "stalking" in the UK, is a challenging pursuit that combines wildlife management, fieldcraft, and marksmanship.

Shooting

Grouse, Fasan and Partrige in collaboration with neighbour estates.

Snooker

The game was invented in 1875 by British Army officers stationed in India. The term "snooker" was actually military slang used to describe inexperienced or first-year cadets.

Tennis

The "World's Healthiest Sport": Many health organisations highlight tennis as a premier sport for longevity. Studies suggest racquet sports can add years to a healthy life due to the intense cardiovascular and aerobic bursts.

Sauna

Relaxation & Mood: Saunas activate the "rest and digest" nervous system, significantly reducing stress, lowering cortisol, and aiding in sleep.
