Hillingdon Ranch

Founded in 1887 by architect Alfred Giles, Hillingdon Ranch spans over 13,000 acres in Kendall County, Texas, and has been managed by the Giles family for six generations. Their primary operations include breeding registered Aberdeen Angus cattle, fine wool sheep, and Angora goats—along with whitetail deer—to promote ecological balance and quality production. The ranch uses range management techniques that align livestock numbers with the landscape’s capacity, optimizing sustainability in harsh limestone and drought-prone terrain. They offer breeding stock as well as fiber, meat, and trophy-quality animals for sale, emphasizing conservation and sustainable agriculture. Beyond production, Hillingdon Ranch shares its legacy through educational resources and maintains transparency on its ecological and family heritage.
