STALKING We are lucky enough to be near a number of estates able to organise seasonal blood sports including pheasant hunting, deer hunting, rough hunting, wildfowl hunting and stalking.

The laws and traditions surrounding hunting are complex. Most animals which are shot or hunted need a time of year when they are left alone, in order to keep numbers up. A system of seasons has evolved whereby certain animals cannot be hunted or shot at certain times of the year.

For obvious reasons this can vary from species to species and from place to place. Please contact the local estates for details as to when the seasons begin. Dalmunzie Estate - Glenshee Offers a number of alternatives ranging from conservative to the more aggressive. Options include; Golf, fishing, clay-pigeon shooting, mountain biking, estate tours, and tennis. Email [email protected] Tel. (01250) 885226 Fax. (01250) 885225

BEACH

Lunan Bay Beach is a broad east-facing beach of beautiful sand backed by dunes and framed by low cliffs to the north and south. From its northern end near Boddin Point, about three miles south of Montrose, it stretches for over two miles south to Ethie Haven. Lunan Bay has to be on any list of Scotland's best beaches, alongside the likes of Sandwood Bay, Achmelvich, Sanna and Bainakell Bay. Half way down its length, Lunan Bay is interrupted by the curves cut into the beach by the Lunan Water as it escapes into the North Sea. High on a grassy bluff overlooking the river and bay are the ruins of Red Castle. Much of this was built in the 1100s, with a keep added in the 1300s.
