This charming, detached period cottage is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with a beautiful fully enclosed garden perfect for dogs and children, close to great local amenities.

Located near the banks of Loch Lintrathen, this comfortable family home is the perfect place to bring two dogs for a group getaway, with miles of picturesque landscapes at your doorstep. Lintrathen is near the outskirts of the Angus Glens in the Eastern Cairngorms, so there is no shortage of scenic walks, both relaxing and challenging. The large, fully enclosed garden ensures your canine companions have plenty of space to explore. Make the most of sunny weather, with a spot of alfresco dining as your faithful friends play in the grass.

Wipe muddy paws and boots upon entry into this welcoming hallway. Snuggle up with your pups in the lounge and put on a movie for family film night. The kitchen/diner is a bright and sociable space, well-equipped to whip up delicious meals with ample seating at the dining table for everyone. You can even create your own dog-friendly treats, so they won’t miss out. Also on the ground floor are the three lovingly decorated bedrooms furnished with comfortable beds and cosy textiles to ensure restful sleep. The stylish bathroom with a shower over the bath is perfect for pampering your pups after a long walk. Outside you’ll find the enclosed wrap-around garden with plenty of lawn space and a seating area for enjoying an evening beverage while watching the sunset.

Take a picnic down to Lintrathen Loch, and look out for songbirds, osprey and even otters. Embark on breathtaking, rugged walks through the glens of Clova, Isla and Prosen, with only a 20-mile drive to the Cairngorms. There are plenty of wonderful places closer by, such as the Reekie Linn Waterfall and the RSPB Centre at Loch Kinnordy. Visit Dundee just over 20 miles away and explore the variety of dog-friendly eateries for a family treat.

If you want to spend some very quiet time, with dark skies and quiet roads in a beautiful hamlet, this is the place for you. A well equipped and homely cottage, with loads of space for us all. Garden visitors included a woodpecker and a yellow hammer, countless sparrows, blackbirds, finches, swallows, bats, froglets, the occasional muntjac deer (I Read moredont know who was more surprised on one occasion - me or her!). A great location near Glamis Castle, and good driving routes to the Cairngorms. Hide
