We had a fantastic time. The cottage is in a stunning location and is really comfortable and well equipped. The garden is well fenced and was ideal for our dog to explore. We enjoyed a good meal at the Glen Clova Hotel. The walk to Corrie Fee from the Glen Doll ranger base is not to be missed!

Fantastic stay at Tarabuckle for 2 weeks in July. Peaceful, stunning location with hardly any midgies. Kitchen is very well equipped. Lovely showers. The Internet stood up well to use by one teenager & one 10 year old. The garden is genuinely completely enclosed with chicken wire around the whole perimeter, which gave our 2 dogs fantastic freedom.

Our second trip back to this cottage, and just as good as remembered. The cottage is great to just relax in if after a quiet holiday, and also in a great location to explore Scotland.
