| Situated three quarters of a mile along a rough track, with nearby river, scots pine and open rolling hills the Bothy has an airy and spacous feel with whitewashed stone walls, carpeted floor and simple furnishings. In the main room a futon, single and two bunkbeds create a cosy sitting area around the woodburning stove with space for activities on a rainy day, eating area, and pleasantly tiled work surfaces for food preparation. There is an electric cooker and fridge, upright dryer and pulley for drying clothes. An adjoining smaller family room has a double and single bed with electric heater. There is an excellent hot shower. Apart from the shower, water is heated by a large kettle! |
| The Bothy is secluded enough to offer complete peace and quiet and is the habitat of deer, mountain hare and many alpine plants. Situated in an area that enjoys some of the lowest UK figures for upland rainfall, it makes an excellent spot for birdwatching and hillwalking as well as exploring Upper Donside; castles, gardens, galleries, and, further afield, distilleries, Pictish and standing stones. Nearest hotel one and a half miles away. Fishing can be arranged by permit. Other facilities available locally include riding, mountain bike hire, cross-country skiing, snowboarding and downhill skiing at the Lecht two and a half miles away. The Bothy is close to the eastern walk into Ben Avon and the Cairngorm massif as well as Balmoral and Royal Deeside. Findhorn Bay and the coast are one and a quarter hour's drive away.
