Country Pursuits is an industry leader in the set-up, management and development of field sport and outdoor schools for leading resorts. We work very closely with manufacturer partners like Barbour to develop and launch high level, professional and customized schools for resort guests and the public.
 

Our Falconry schools offer you the rare opportunity to learn how to handle and fly a hawk. You can also witness the incredible spectacle of hawks hunting in the field, working in harmony with specially trained hunting dogs. Discover the role of falconers in the conservation of raptors and enhance your appreciation of these magnificent birds in their natural state.
 


Open year-round, the Country Pursuits Off Road Driving school at Gleneagles teaches off-road driving techniques for all seasons and driving conditions. Experience numerous challenges on purpose built courses and extensive trail systems: ascents, descents, side-tilts, and river driving. The degree of difficulty can range from introductory courses to more advanced off-road training sessions.

 

Discover the ancient sport of archery under skilled supervision. Testing both the skill of the exponent and the balance and craftsmanship of the equipment, the challenge of mastering one of mankind’s oldest hunting weapons holds broad appeal for both sexes and a wide age-group.
 

Available for children, Junior Off-Road provides instruction in half-scale Land Rover replicas, on purpose-built Mini-Jungle courses. Under the close supervision of their instructor, children tackle log piles, side tilts, mounds, ditches and water splashes.
As well as being great fun, the school is an excellent learning opportunity for children, enabling them to learn how to co-ordinate the movement of their hands and feet at separate speeds.
