If you have ever longed for the opportunity of getting thoroughly mud-splattered on a Quad Trek, imagined what it would be like to race on a purpose built outdoor karting circuit, or wanted to try your hand (and eye!) at field sports, then this is the place!

A place where the whole family can come and seriously enjoy the pleasures of being active outdoors in a safe environment of 100 acres of beautiful Royal Deeside. Qualified instructors will be on hand to make sure you get the most out of your visit, whether it is a lesson in the gentle art of fly fishing, or the finer points of controlling a 4x4 vehicle in thick mud.

And with our quality restaurant and Farm Shop the whole experience can last all the longer. Come see us soon!

What we do best:

Discover the delights of beautiful Royal Deeside on the back of a quad bike. Our extensive site offers a variety of offroad terrain including forest tracks, marshland and mud splashes.

Along with our full range of activities, we also have a coffee shop/restaurant that specialises in home cooking and our own Cairnton Aberdeen Angus Beef, a farm shop with local products and an outdoor play area for the children.

Our list of outdoor activities include Quad Bike Trekking, Kart Racing, Archery, Target Shooting, Off Road Driving, Clay Pigeon Shooting, Fly Fishing, Mountain Biking, Opposite Steer Landrover Driving, Digger Manoeuvres, 8 - Wheel Glencoe Driving and Farm Walks.
