As cosy and rustic as they come, this traditional converted farm steading nestled on the private Avonchie Estate on the banks of the River Deveron is the ultimate rural getaway, perfect for those with a nose for nature with plenty of stick-throwing opportunities along the countless tracks and trails from the doorstep.
The rustic decor, traditional flagstone floor and roaring wood burner in the homely lounge create a truly warming ambience, perfect for soothing weary walking toes and paws after a long day on the trails. Hunker down on the plush sofa and catch the latest blockbuster on the Smart TV as your canine companion curls up on the hearth at your feet. Lead the way into the contemporary farmhouse-style kitchen/diner to rustle up some tasty treats to feed the pack seated around the rustic wooden dining table. Completing the ground floor are a bathroom and a utility room. Upstairs, you have a characterful en-suite king-size zip-and-link bedroom (which can be made up as a twin) and a charming en-suite double bedroom to retire to for a well-earned rest before tomorrow’s walkies. Outside, your pup will go mutts for long walks along the banks of the River Deveron in the grounds of the estate.
The Avochie Estate is a haven for keen outdoor explorers; nuzzle noses with a variety of wildlife, find plenty of ball-throwing opportunities in the fields and walk the banks of the River Deveron with your canine companion. Take the lead to explore the many scenic trails around the surrounding Aberdeenshire countryside, including the Bin Forest Walk and the Deveron Way which provide plenty of exciting new smells and panoramic river views to enjoy. Famous for its ruined castle, explore nearby Huntly (7.5 miles) to sniff out some of the best produce the area has to offer from its fetching selection of local shops and cafes.
