Overview

This charming detached period cottage with wood burner, beautiful enclosed mature gardens and wonderful views is nestled in a splendid idyllic setting, in the heart of the spectacular Angus Glens

Escape to Angus with loved ones on both two and four legs with this charming period cottage in the Cairngorms National Park. A haven for walkers, cyclists and fishermen alike, this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty has a lot to offer. Back at the property, which sleeps four, cook in the bespoke kitchen, relax beside the roaring wood burner or dine alfresco in the enclosed gardens while your four-legged friend roams safely nearby.

Inside, this delightful cottage is brimming with character, warmth and home comforts. The fantastic open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is great for entertaining, with its wooden flooring, stylish kitchen area, antique dining table and inviting lounge area opening onto the garden. While you settle in for the night in one of the two elegantly finished bedrooms, your faithful friend can snuggle up in front of the glowing wood burner. In the morning, dogs will enjoy a potter in the wrap-around gardens while grown-ups tuck into an al fresco breakfast with a valley view.

Nestled in the heart of the Angus Glens, this rural retreat is a haven for walkers on both two and four legs. Pack a picnic and head for Glen Doll (5 miles), where you can choose between six scenic trails before stopping for a bite to eat beside the South Esk burn.

This is a very well equipped and warm and welcoming cottage. The position is stunning in one of the most beautiful Scottish glens. You do need a car.

Delightful and very well-kept cottage in glorious location. Wonderful walking possibilities, abundant bird life and a special treat, a secret bench by the river for evening dreaming or drinks.

Marchburn is our favourite holiday cottage of all time in a perfectly beautiful location. The thoughtfulness put into the hospitality and our comfort was second to none whilst allowing us complete privacy. This elderly building was completely unspoilt both outside and indoors where the decor and furnishings suited the age and style of the building Read morebut provided utility and comfort. There were generous and useful food and drink gifts upon our arrival and short, helpful instructions on operation. Hide

We had a wonderful short break. The cottage is a home from home with all you could need being close to hand and just where youd expect it to be. The location is idyllic with walks on youre doorstep and easy access for trips out. Worth noting that the Glen Clover Hotel closes sometimes for private functions so planning ahead ,re eating out, is a gooRead mored idea. Highly recommended. Hide
