Sitting peacefully within three acres of private grounds, this home opens its doors to a restorative and family-friendly retreat. From here, you can follow hiking trails straight from the door and Nethy Bridge village is just a twenty-minute walk away. It’s also a great base for exploring the Cairngorm National Park. And when it comes to total relaxation, this home welcomes you to switch off by the wood-burning fire and gather for cosy meals around the farmhouse table. There is also a stone-built fire pit and a barbecue available on request. It’s worth noting that the grounds are shared with the neighbours, but it retains a wonderful sense of privacy thanks to the beauty of Abernethy Forest.
