  • "Could do with a shelf in downstairs showers, to put shampoo etc."

    on Bit annoying that other dogs pooed on our lawn, for us to clear up and it happened more than once. Bit of a cheek that we had to strip all the beds before leaving. For what we payed for the property.

    We are very sorry for the lawn issue, we have never had this mentioned before or come across this ourselves. In regards to stripping the beds, this is a guests choice and something we kept on post-covid, we know Sykes cottages still have this in their email to guests and here it is also a friendly request. We are glad that you enjoyed the property! kind regards Property Owner

The property

Tarland 4.1 miles.

Set in the heart of Royal Deeside, on the edge of the Cairngorm National Park, is this beautiful, detached home, Ferneytoun.

This striking home has been designed to make the most of its spectacular setting while encompassing contemporary comforts, providing a superb retreat for families and couples seeking a retreat to this region of Scotland.

The social hub of the home is a spacious, open-plan living space, uplifted by natural lighting from the floor to ceiling windows that outlook onto the surrounding landscapes.

At one end lies a sitting area with corner sofa, wall-mounted Smart TV and woodburning stove, perfect for enjoying movie night after a long day, whilst at the other is a games area with pool table, chess board and seating, providing entertainment on a rainy day.

The middle of the room features a striking, contemporary kitchen with centre island, sure to inspire some home-cooking, whilst the extensive dining table is where you can enjoy mealtimes as a group.

When bedtime calls, make your way to any of the three well-appointed bedrooms, with the ground-floor hosting an impressive family room with double and single bed and a king-size room with en-suite shower room, or make your way upstairs and discover the first-floor super king-size room with an attractive dressing room and mezzanine sitting area overlooking the downstairs.

To the outside is a large patio with picnic bench, providing the perfect spot to enjoy alfresco dining whilst the sun sets over the Cairngorms.

When you’re ready to explore, there are a number of outdoor opportunities available from the door, including walking, mountain biking and fishing on the Dee.

It is well worth exploring some of the picturesque countryside while you are here with a myriad of tracks and trails nearby taking you to some wonderful woodland locations enabling you to really feel like you are ‘getting away from it all’.

Take a scenic drive through Royal Deeside's ancient Caledonian pine forest to reach another National Trust for Scotland location, Mar Lodge Estate, a spectacular setting for walks and picnics in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park.

If you fancy a change of scenery, head to the Granite City of Aberdeen, home to a wealth of attractions from many eateries and pubs to the waterside scenery and beaches.

Breakaway to Ferneytoun and experience this mesmerising Scottish location.

BALLATER

Braemar 17 miles; Grantown-on-Spey 38.5 miles; Aberdeen 40 miles.

Situated on the banks of the River Dee, the delightful village of Ballater is a centre for tourism and has much to offer visitors to the area, particularly because of its location in the Cairngorms National Park and its close proximity to Balmoral Castle. This attractive village has a lovely neat village green, specialist shops, charming tea rooms and superior granite cottages, all adding to its genteel ambience. The River Dee flows through Ballater and is well renowned for its salmon fishing during the fishing season. Royal Deeside is so-called because of its connection to the Royal Family, who have frequently visited the town since the time of Queen Victoria. There is excellent walking all around the area, as well as outdoor activities such as cycling, golf, skiing or wildlife excursions. The popular centres of Grantown-on-Spey and Aviemore are within easy reach, as is the city of Aberdeen.
