ENTERPRISES
With a proud past and an exciting future, Buccleuch is focussed on sustainable land use across the property, agriculture, forestry, sporting, and visitor services sectors.
From caring for Britain’s forests and farmlands and developing renewable energy solutions and building the commercial property portfolio, to welcoming visitors to historic houses and estates, Buccleuch is a diverse and modern business informed by our heritage and led by our four guiding priorities. We endeavour to make a meaningful and sustainable contribution whatever the opportunity.
Forestry
With responsibility for some of the UK’s best-loved forestry and woodlands, we see both the wood and the trees.
Agriculture
One of the UK’s leading agricultural businesses, Buccleuch balances innovation with sustainability.
Visitor Services & Hospitality
As custodians of four nationally significant estates, it is our responsibility to welcome, surprise and delight our visitors.
Heritage
Inspired by our past, we are excited by the prospect of sharing these historic houses and estates with future generations.
Renewable Energy
From wind, biomass and hydroelectric to solar power and anaerobic digestion, the solution must be sustainable.
Commercial Property
Buccleuch Property is a highly respected private property investment and development company with an established track record for outstanding delivery.
ESTATES
From the rugged borders of Scotland to rural Northamptonshire, our people care for some of the UK’s best-loved landscapes.
These estates are not only businesses in their own rights, but also hubs for rural communities, providing employment, education, and the opportunity for sustainable development. Key to this is our heartfelt respect for the local people and environment, and a deep understanding of rural culture.
Boughton Estate
A working landscape in the heart of Northamptonshire, Boughton Estate includes sensitively managed farmland, historic woodlands, and the magnificent Boughton House.
Queensberry Estate
Situated at the heart of the Queensberry Estate in the valley of the River Nith, Dumfries and Galloway, Drumlanrig Castle and its spectacular landscape attract tens of thousands of visitors annually. The estate includes thriving farm, forestry, and renewable energy enterprises.
Borders Estate
This dramatic estate lies within the Scottish Borders and Dumfries and Galloway. As well as the 19th Century Bowhill House, Borders Estate is home to a range of farmland, forestry, and renewable energy enterprises.

OUR CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY
Land resource is very different to other assets, as it is used by many people beyond its owner. The choices made at Buccleuch have far reaching implications on a local, community, national and global level.
