Overview
Property code: CA177

Set within verdant, mature gardens, this sizeable Scottish holiday home overlooks the River Deveron and is an excellent base for fishing, walking and enjoying the very best of Aberdeenshire.

If you love style and period properties, then this holiday home in the Aberdeenshire village of Aberchirder is the ideal place to catch up with friends and family in a beautiful setting. Close to the borders of Aberdeenshire, Moray, and Banff, it sleeps 13 guests across eight bedrooms. The River Deveron runs alongside the property’s garden, so fishing aficionados are bound to find a good catch. Artist guests in your group may even be inspired to draw or paint the surrounding landscape. Head north to enjoy pretty Scottish fishing villages and beaches, or west for whisky distilleries and the castles of Speyside.

Meander up the long beech tree-lined driveway and step into this elegant home which is immediately calming with bright and airy interiors and tasteful traditional style and contemporary touches. There’s magnificent period furniture, an abundance of wall art and authentic antiques adding character throughout the property. The bedrooms have fabulous garden and river views. The cook in your party will love the contemporary-style kitchen with a traditional Aga, electric oven and fridge/freezers, great for family feasts, and you have the choice to dine in the breakfast area or in the formal dining room. Enjoy film nights together in the living room by the toasty open fire, curl up with a good book in the drawing room or throw open the doors to the private enclosed garden where you can watch red squirrels and birdlife, enjoy a game of croquet, swingball or table tennis, or walk down to the steep riverbank where you can fish for salmon by arrangement. You’ll also find a convenient cloakroom with WC, a utility room, and fishing rod storage on the ground floor. When night falls, discover eight stylish bedrooms upstairs (one en-suite), plus four family bathrooms. There’s a shop, pub, and village amenities within walking distance.

This is a spectacular region of Scotland where there's something to interest everyone. You're in the heart of castle country here, so history lovers should explore Aberdeenshire's popular Castle Trail, featuring 19 of the finest abodes including: early Georgian mansion Duff House (9.5 miles), 11th-century Delgatie Castle, and Fyvie Castle with its fine antiques (15 miles).

Golfer guests will be happy to find several courses nearby; tee off at Turriff (9 miles), Royal Tarlair (11 miles), and Huntly (12 miles). Afterwards, your entourage may want to refresh with a wee dram, so book a tour at one of the region's distilleries and learn everything you wanted to know about the production of fine malts: try Knockdhu distillery in Knock (6.5 miles), GlenDronach Distillery in Forgue (7.5 miles), or Strathisla Distillery in Keith (15 miles).

And don't miss the charming wee town of Portsoy on the Moray Firth (10 miles); it's small but mighty. See the old 17th-century harbour, buy marble jewellery – the local marble features in Versailles and other world palaces for its rare beauty – and join in the fun of the annual boat festival which celebrates boat building and marine crafts, music and art.

For more artisan shopping afternoons, head to Eden Watermill (13 miles), a charming old mill with a tearoom serving light bites and homemade treats, a studio workshop with seasonal events, and a shop with tweed and tartan gifts created at the mill.
