Out of curiosity, how big is a "large private hunting estate" in Scotland?

That's alarge even by US standards. The largest plantation in Georgia was 33,000 acres untilthe owner died and through his will gave away 1,000 acres (the former CEO of Coca Cola). Of course there are larger private holdings in the western US, but most of those holdings are in lightly populated areas whereit's dry and there islittle commercial appeal.
In the fragmented UK, I'm surprised there are still tracts that size.

Thanks for sharing the link as that looks like a very special place. My last name is Sullivan and we have a bit of family history in that neighborhood.
What are some of the things you do to actively manage and maintain the quality hunting offered there?
