The first map showing a building on the site was published between 1747 and 1755. The origins of the estate appear to have been Cairngorms Cottage which was built as a hunting lodge and inhabited by the Shaw family from the late 1700’s. Cairngorms Castle was built in the early 1860’s, commissioned by Lord Clyde, Queen Victoria’s banker and designed by Her Majesty’s architect from Balmoral. The estate sold in 1867 at a traditional ‘Roup’ for a reduced price of £10,000 as advertised in the Times! Guests staying on any of the properties on the 200 acre estate enjoy beautiful scenery and the freshest of air on this dreamy estate. You can fish for rainbow and brown trout or take a trip out on the estate’s private loch in the five person dinghy or fish for salmon or stroll along the River Shee which runs through the estate. Skiers and snowboarders enjoy the close proximity of the famous Glenshee Snowsports Centre ten miles away and walkers love the sensational 64 mile CateranTrail, the second stage of which passes through the estate. You can take a beautiful moorland route to the Tail’s highest point between Strathardle and Glenshee enjoying breathtaking views of the lush glens and rugged peaks. Cairngorms Castle is also a wonderful base for exploring the Cairngorms National Park with its choice of 55 Munros, four of which are the highest mountains in the UK. Those less active can enjoy the very scenic, spectacular drive along the 90 mile Snowroads stretch, starting at nearby Blairgowrie and driving to the Highland town of Grantown-on-Spey.
The delightful Glen Cottage is located on the Cairngorms Castle Estate in the heart of Glenshee, a spectacular, lush green glen. It enjoys the most breathtaking mountain scenery and very fresh air. The Estate is situated on the southern fringe of the Cairngorms National Park, just 2 hours from Edinburgh and Glasgow. Glenshee translates as ‘The Valley of Peace’ and is known fondly by the the locals as ‘the fairy glen’. The area is famous for its fantastic variety of activities including walking, angling, shooting, golf, cycling and also winter sports. Mountain biking, falconry and pony trekking are also available. The fantastic Glenshee Snowsports Centre is just ten miles from the cottage. If that is not enough to get the adrenaline flowing, Nae Limits offer an impressive range of water and land adventures including white water rafting, river tubing and quad biking.
The scenery is absolutely spectacular. The 64 mile Caterlan Trail passes through the estate and takes you to the highest point of the trail with sensational panoramic views of the mountain peaks and deep green glens.

Kayakers and canoeists enjoy the challenging network of rivers. Instructor led beginner sessions can be arranged.
Golfers are not left out. There are over 100 fantastic courses including Braemar, the highest course in Scotland and possibly the most beautiful. The Cairngorm Mountains rise up each side of the course. The championship courses at Rosemount and Blairgowrie and the world famous Gleneagles, St Andrews and Caroustie are all within easy reach.
The Cairngorms Castle Estate enjoys a fishing stretch of just under a mile with excellent salmon and trout fishing for novice and experienced fishers on the River Shee. The Shee Water is located at the head of the River Ericht tributary of the whole Tay system and has had a consistently strong run for 40 years. The Ericht has a fish counter on it which regularly sees 10,000 to 15,000 fish through in a season which usually runs from May to August. There is also rainbow and brown trout fishing in the estate’s private loch with the estate’s dinghy available for guests to enjoy.

Larch Cabin provides a rural escape for nature lovers, outdoor enthusiasts or those seeking peace and quiet amongst the stunning Ochil Hills whilst still being conveniently located for Dollar village and Gleneagles.
Self-contained with open-plan living and sleeping space, Larch Cabin has been lovingly restored with sustainability at heart: heated exclusively by wood-burning stove fed with logs from our woodland, powered by renewable electricity and with water solely supplied via a private natural spring. Extensive insulation ensures snug winters and cool summers, however, water bottles and extra blankets are provided for the chilliest of Scottish nights and guests are encouraged to bring their own slippers to cosy in.
The wood-burning stove includes integrated pizza shelf and top oven for cooking jacket potatoes or stews whilst a modern kitchenette with electric ceramic hob and fridge freezer gives the best of both worlds. Complete with a range of full cooking utensils and serving ware including stovetop espresso maker along with complimentary coffee from our local local coffee roaster.
The ensuite bathroom provides a walk-in rainfall shower with water supplied from our own spring while a double-bed with organic cotton sheets creates a perfect resting place after a long day on the hills. All furnishings, complimentary toiletries and cleaning products are eco-friendly and, where possible, locally sourced and British made.
The cabin's private verandah has seating for outdoor dining and offers unspoilt views across fields and woodlands: a perfect spot to enjoy the rich wildlife. We are very lucky to have red squirrels, deer and pine martens visiting the woodlands and beavers and otters have now been sighted in the Devon. The valley is full of birdsong including that of the song thrush, woodpecker, bullfinch, lapwing, fire crest, kite and heron to name a few. The cabin's private garden includes BBQ and firepit.
Located in Dollar, this cabin is in a rural area and on a river. Gartmorn Dam Country Park and Townhill Country Park reflect the area's natural beauty and area attractions include Knockhill Racing Circuit and Phoenix Falconry. Be sure to check out the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.
