This peacefully located property is overlooking the River Dee with wildlife on the doorstep.. Overlooking the gentle meandering bends of the River Dee where wild red deer roam, this former taxidermist’s workshop and cottage has been completely rebuilt under the ‘Mar Estate Golden Jubilee Project’. After lapsing into dereliction, this magnificently appointed property has been restored to its original 1884 timber construction, taking into account every last detail. Further enhanced by the addition of modern day facilities, it stands as a real gem of a holiday home, amidst spectacular scenery. The village is home to the annual Highland Games, the Braemar Gathering. Games were first held here in the 11th century, when contests were set for the local clans in order to pick the bravest and strongest for Malcolm Canmore’s army. Perth is little over an hour’s drive away, as is the beautiful granite city of Aberdeen. Shops 3 miles. . Night storage heaters, electricity, bed linen and towels included. Natural grassy area. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking.

There is no access to the property on the first Saturday in September every year (between 3pm and 5pm). This is due to Highland Games and the Queen's annual visit.

There is open water in the property grounds.
