Hillview Glenlivet

Glenlivet, Cairngorms National Park

Large self catering holiday cottage at Glenlivet in the Cairngorm National Park

  • Sleeps 12 - 6 bedrooms.
  • Two pets welcome

This very attractive former estate house is maintained and equipped to a high standard. Comfortable and warm the house is an ideal choice for group and large family holidays. The cottage is located in a rural setting in the Cairngorms National Park, in an area rich in wildlife which offers endless possibilities for activity holidays, including winter skiing holidays. Aviemore  and Inverness are two of the most popular Highland tourist destinations and Hillview House is within easy driving distance of both.

Glenlivet is one of Scotland’s secret glens, located between the Ladder and Cromdale hills in the Cairngorm National Park. The two rivers of Livet and Avon are within the 58,000 acres of Glenlivet estate, part of the Crown estate.

The altitude never less than 600 feet, the area is wonderful for wildlife and walking. Crossbills, siskins, redpolls, goldcrest and long tailed tits can be seen in the woodland areas, as can red squirrels. Adjoining heath provide for black grouse and short eared owls while the blanket bog and rough grassland are favoured by the waders for breeding.

Red and roe deer may be seen here as can mountain hare, white in its winter coat and the colours of the hills are forever changing with the seasons.

Cycling, horse riding and skiing may be enjoyed - also fishing on certain river stretches, with permits available locally.  All the facilities are well sign posted and well maintained.
Solitude in the wide open spaces allows complete relaxation, away from the stresses of modern life and you will return home, refreshed.
