Beggshill Bothy
Self Catering
Overview
Beggshill Bothy is a recently renovated farm cottage with views over the glen to a forested area where the deer graze in the clearings and buzzards soar overhead. Beyond the crest of the glen, it is just possible to see the graceful turning windmills of the Foundland wind power farm. The bothy is situated on our 3 acre small holding. The area is very quiet with few cars travelling down the road, and those that do need to travel at a gentle pace to avoid the pheasants, rabbits and occasional hare.The Bothy itself has a bedroom, shower room with toilet and a kitchen/dining room. The bedroom has an ample double bed and the kitchen/dining room has a sofa bed which takes the capacity of the bothy up to 4 for a family with 2 children. The bothy is fully centrally heated and the water comes from a well on the other side of the Glen.
We are ideally located for the Castle and Whisky Trails, the Moray Coast is 25km away. There are many hills waiting to be walked in the surrounding area and the Cairngorm Mountains are 1.5 hours away if you are feeling energetic. Huntly has some great little shops and one of the best curry houses in Grampian.
