Book into Garden Cottage and the
estate is yours to explore. The hill loch has excellent brown trout
fishing either from either boat or bank and fly rods and tackle are provided in
the cottage for your use during your stay.
Ashintully boasts some of the most
stunning scenery to be found in Scotland with an amazing diversity of
wildlife. We have a number of adults and children’s bikes that you are
welcome to use during your stay but if prefer to walk, on our doorstep is the famous
Cateran Trail. The Caterans were cattle thieves who flourished in the Highlands from the
Middle Ages until the 17th century and the circular trail covers 64 miles with 5 distinct
stages and a mini trail. There are many shorter, less strenuous walks across the estate with
fantastic views.
During the winter months, Glenshee
ski area offers some fantastic skiing. It's located just 15 miles north (25 mins by
car), so you're ideally located to ski early in the day and miss the crowds. Glenshee has 36
runs and 21 lifts and is open 7 days a week from 8.30am – 5.00pm during the season.
