The high ceiling in the living room provides a light and airy feel, whilst the cosiness of the wood burner is a real delight on colder days. The living room leads out onto the patio overlooking the decking. Its idyllic location, amongst a variety of trees in a secluded position, yet within easy access to the village of Kirkmichael, makes it a real haven for relaxation.

From the sloping 3-acre garden, interspersed with pathways, there are excellent walks through the mixed woodland onto heath and moor which opens up to breathtaking views, perfect for hill and dog walkers. In particular there is the Cateran Trail – a 100 mile circular walk through the Angus Glens and Perthshire. Winter sports at Glenshee Ski Slopes provide extensive skiing and snowboarding facilities, and are located just a short drive away. The popular towns of Pitlochry and Blairgowrie are just 13 miles equidistant with a great variety of shops, a theatre, fine dining restaurants, cafés and a distillery, all well worth a visit. Golfers can test their skills on over 30 courses in the area, and for the more adventurous there is mountain biking, fishing and horse riding. Throughout the year many events are held in the region including The Strathardle Gathering every August (Highland Games), The Etape Caledonia Cycling Event in May, The Perthshire Open Studios and The Blairgowrie Book Festival in October, which can be enjoyed whilst staying in this lovely property.

A beautiful cabin tucked away in woodland and shrubs. The comfort and cleanliness is top class and the peace is beyond description. Charmingly decorated, and wonderful showers..and a very well equipped kitchen. The mattress iin the master bedroom is like sleeping on soft clouds..such a peaceful sleep every night..no noise, no stress..just wonderful! Well equipped with cd's, dvd's, toys for children, games including scrabble, and a whole range of books from.children upwards..everything is thought of. Its such a tranquil place..with plenty of walks for those who have dogs..or those who like hiking. I enjoyed exploring the surrounding area. There are other cabins tuvked away in Glen Derby, all seemed to be sleeping amongst the tres. The hottub is lovely and surrounded by shrubs and trees so that you have privacy.. we saw many birds visiting the feeders just close to the cabin..which was like havingbyour own " hide" we could observe very clearly from inside the cabin. Glen Hideaway is a hidden gem, and i would recommend to all. It being flat level inside, no steps, no stairs, makes it very easy for anyone with walking difficulties. Of course, the hottub might be a little awkward to access if you are not steady on your feet as it is down garden steps. However, its beautiful, and the cosy woodstove provides tremendous heat.I would return in a heartbeat. We loved our sray.

OUTSTANDING! This is the first time we visited this property & we fell in love with it instantly, it ticked all the boxes for us.The cabin is cosy, comfortable, clean, well equipped & beautifully decorated (sofa & beds are very comfortable).It is situated in a stunning location.We normally struggle to find accommodation with nearby walks for the dog but here you step out your cabin & are right on forest walks.Our dog loved the walks. We loved being able to relax in the hot tub afterwards (it was tranquil).I cannot recommend this place enough, it was the full package.We certainly didn't want to leave.We cannot wait to book again for next year. We dont normally normally return to the same place but with this one we loved it so much that we are planning to be a returning customer.Thank you for the opportunity to stay in your beautiful cabin ❤️

Absolutely fantastic 9 days in the glen hideaway. Polly and Rich couldn't be anymore helpful. The lodge is perfectly placed for a relaxing week in the cairngorms. Everything you need and more in the lodge. The hot tub is the icing on the cake. Can't wait to be back!
