At the heart of Glenprosen, one of the renowned ‘Glens of Angus’, lies the Balnaboth Estate on the edge of the Cairngorms National Park; 6,000 peaceful and secluded acres surrounding 16th-century Balnaboth House.  In its midst, these six characterful holiday cottages each offer a unique and magical holiday retreat; indeed the creator of Peter Pan himself (Sir James Barrie) was born in nearby Kirriemuir and holidayed here. 

These cottages were once occupied by shepherds, gardeners or other staff of the Ogilvy family when this was a traditional Victorian sporting estate.  Red squirrels play in the trees, otters frequent the burns, and deer graze all around.  Because of the varied scenery, that varies from beech woods to forest, pasture to heather moor, mountain streams to river pools, the area enjoys a spectacular range of wildlife, including species largely extinct elsewhere in Britain, such as black game and ptarmigan. 

Magnificent walking, bird-watching, mountain biking and (in season) cross-country skiing abound on the estate and, further afield, downhill skiing at Glen Shee (25 miles).  Fishing is available on a 5-mile stretch of the River Prosen, and there are twenty golf courses within an hours’ drive. 

Enjoy the seclusion of this beautiful glen - peaceful, relaxing, scenic - yet just a few minutes’ drive from bustling market towns and busy fishing harbours which hug the Angus coastline, as well as from t. . .

    Everything, the location, the scenery and the cottage itself was just perfect.

  • Christine

    Location was peaceful, surrounded by nature. Black night sky, wonderful for star gazing . no Wi-Fi 🤗

  • Ciara

    Pure peace and quiet - no phone signal, no wifi, and clear dark skies for stargazing at night. Very cozy cottage - especially in the evenings with the shutters closed. We bought bird food and whiled some time away just watching the birds. Glorious! It was nice to have hand and dish soap provided.
