Overview

Cottage Ideal for Kids

Edwardian properties are known for their simple design, spacious rooms with high ceilings and ornate handcrafted features. This property, built on the edge of the Cairngorm National Park, reflects the character of the era with fabulous wood-panelled rooms, wide-open hallways and generously proportioned rooms.

A former shooting lodge at the end of Glenshee, set in its own fenced policies, this home was designed to cater for larger house parties, making it ideal for group and family gatherings of up to 21.

The adjoining Cairngorm National park covers an area of just over 4.5 thousand square kilometres and is a popular destination for walkers, wildlife and outdoor activities, including seasonal skiing. Adjacent Strathmore is home to many top-class golf courses. Trout fishing, together with the use of 2 boats is yards from the door, and salmon fishing is available on the estates own River Blackwater, as well as the nearby Rivers Ericht, Isla and Tay.

Guests will enjoy the three large reception rooms with both the capacity and grandeur for special occasions. Off the magnificent panelled entrance and hall, they consist of the main drawing room with open fire, bay window with padded window seats, a smaller sitting room with open fire and picture windows, and a large games room with wood-panelled wainscoting, table tennis table, small snooker table and a large seating area. It’s a perfect space for house guests to enjoy a few Scottish reels at the end of the evening with the furniture moved to the edge of the room.

The grand entrance hall is a beautiful space with its decorative wood panelling; wide handcrafted staircase leading up to the first-floor gallery landing. Access to the modern conservatory is off the drawing-room; outside is a paved area with seats, perfect for relaxed BBQ’s.

The dining room with large windows looking out onto the front lawns and hills beyond has a long table seating up to 20 guests. A large sideboard, perfect for buffet breakfasts and formal dinners alike, provides toasters, warmers, glassware and cutlery.

The farmhouse kitchen is fully equipped to cater for groups and comes with a 6 door AGA, together with a range style electric oven and gas hob. There is a cold store, a pantry with 2 dishwashers, a laundry with washing, drying and ironing facilities. There is a boot/gunroom and a WC by the back door.

There is another ground floor WC off the games room. There is separate accommodation for visiting catering staff available by prior request.
