Four-pawed friends will go mutts in the huge garden of this high-quality holiday escape. Incredible scenery surrounds the spacious and comfortable house, and after days of outdoor adventure with your pals, you can unwind by the wood burner or dine outdoors as you take in the stunning views. Perfect for large families and groups of up to eight friends.

Follow the 3/4-mile rough farm track up the hill to find this wonderful detached property. Hang coats and leads in the hall and follow your mutts into the open-plan living space, which includes plenty of soft seating for you to sink into after exhilarating walks. Stream your favourite movies on the Smart TV and, in cooler months, light the wood burner for glowing warmth. The bespoke kitchen features an electric Aga for creating hearty meals, and the spacious dining area looks out over the spectacular scenery. A ground-floor utility room adds convenience, the perfect place for storing pet food and hanging dog towels to dry. One of the two super-king-size bedrooms - with an en-suite shower room - is also on the ground floor, and there's also a separate WC. Head upstairs to find the games room and an impressive family bathroom, which has a walk-in shower and an elegant roll-top bath. Also on this level are the remaining three bedrooms, of which the second super-king-size has access to the garden via external stone steps. The enclosed, 1.5-acre garden features a charcoal BBQ and an expansive dining table, a wonderful spot for dining in the fresh air.

Stride out in the dramatic landscapes of this gorgeous area, perhaps picking up the Cateran Trail, or heading for the charming villages of Kirkmichael or the Kirkton of Glen Isla, both 5 miles. The southern edge of the Cairngorm National Park can be reached in just 4 miles.

Amazing cottage in a beautiful location. Very peaceful with wonderful views. Really well equipped and very comfortable beds / sofas. One thing to be aware of, theres only an Aga for cooking. It takes a bit of time to get used to.

This steading is perfect for a large group holiday! Family or friends would find the ideal place to relax and enjoy themselves. If you enjoy the countryside even better. If not, you soon will! It is refurbished to a high standard and well equipped for the robust use by multiple visitors. Every need is catered for. The bathrooms and beds are luxurRead moreious. The Aga in the stunning living room is a joy to cook on. We had many large evening suppers looking over the gorgeous valley view of busy farmland. Its like a watercolour painting of joyous scenes. The lay out works well as the lovely upper playroom for children ensures peace for adults downstairs! The close proximity of Mount Blair and other walks give plenty of outdoor exercise on tap but if the weather closes in the log fire is nice to curl up beside indoors and just watch the elements do their stuff! The sunrise and sunset are visible from many of the windows and we watched ducks, mice, birds of prey, rabbits, pheasants, cows, sheep and ponies. We played board games as a family and had hysterical laughs and fun. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this holiday to others. We loved it. It might be a little unnerving to find in the dark, snowy nights but apart from that we couldn't find a single fault with the wonderful Coldrach Steading! Thanks Hide

We had such a wonderful stay and dream of returning regularly. The views of the hills and fields are absolutely stunning (and feature coos, cows, sheep, and pheasants!). The cottage is so comfortablethe beds, the down comforters, the warmth from the aga and the wood fireplace. The kitchen is so gorgeous.

The house is very well done out and well equipped and clean. The views are stunning.The securely fenced garden is brilliant for allowing the dogs and kids to play safely outside. You can walk straight up the fell side from the house. The house is remote but this part is a bonus as it is very peaceful and quiet.
