Lude Estate

A diversified, family run business in the Highlands of Scotland

Welcome to Lude Estate, situated in stunning Highland Perthshire and on the edge of the Cairngorms National Park.  With unsurpassed views high over the Vale of Atholl towards Blair Castle and at the geographical centre of Scotland, Lude is a family owned, traditional Highland Estate.

Since 1938, the Gordon family has owned and managed Lude for farming, forestry and sporting purposes. More recently, the estate has focused on tourism with the re-development of redundant farm buildings in 2011 into 4 holiday cottages. Following the success of these developments, the farmhouse was converted in 2018 into a 5th holiday cottage and in 2021, Garden Cottage sitting next to the estate’s walled garden was added to the portfolio. We farm cattle, sheep and trout in several lochs and all our stalking is part of a selective cull and local deer management plan.  Outdoor activities at Lude and locally are endless, from stalking and fishing, hill walking, bird watching, mountain biking, cycling, pony trekking and white-water rafting to name a few.  And if you are lucky you may spot a red squirrel or highland cow!
