Guests say
Glen Hideaway receives glowing praise for its tranquil woodland setting, immaculate presentation, and cosy, well-equipped interiors. Guests consistently highlight the peaceful atmosphere, abundant wildlife, and thoughtful touches throughout the cabin. The hot tub, comfortable beds, and excellent walks from the doorstep are frequently mentioned. The property is especially appreciated by dog owners and those seeking relaxation. Minor issues, such as a planned power cut and hot tub access for those with mobility challenges, are noted but do not detract from overwhelmingly positive experiences. Many guests express a strong desire to return.
Multiple reviews describe the cabin as spotless, immaculately appointed, and extremely clean on arrival. No negative comments regarding cleanliness were found.
The location is repeatedly described as stunning, peaceful, and ideal for nature lovers, with direct access to forest walks and abundant wildlife. Guests appreciate the secluded yet accessible setting.
Guests frequently mention the comfort of the beds (notably the master mattress), sofas, and the overall cosy atmosphere. The log burner and spacious layout add to the comfort. One minor mention of hot tub access being tricky for those with mobility issues slightly lowers the score.
The cabin is praised for being very well equipped, with a fully stocked kitchen, excellent showers, hot tub, games, books, and entertainment options. One review notes a temporary power cut, but this was outside the owners' control and mitigated with a camping stove.
Guests highlight thoughtful touches such as games, books, DVDs, bird feeders, and clear instructions. Owners are described as welcoming and responsive. While some mention notes and contact details left by the owners, there is no mention of guaranteed gifts.

Please note: This property has a natural water supply from a spring.. This lovely detached log cabin, with a turf roof, has been carefully furnished throughout to provide stylish and welcoming accommodation. Its mix of contemporary furnishings combined with the wooden walls creates a warm and inviting home, perfect at any time of the year. The high ceiling in the living room provides a light and airy feel, whilst the cosiness of the wood burner is a real delight on colder days. The living room leads out onto the patio overlooking the decking. Its idyllic location, amongst a variety of trees in a secluded position, yet within easy access to the village of Kirkmichael, makes it a real haven for relaxation. Watch the variety of wildlife on the doorstep - plenty of red squirrels, roe deer and woodland birds who love the peaceful environment, can be easily seen. The property really is a hideaway, accessed by a non-tarmac track and in winter, the track can get snowy and icy. However, the owners are on hand should you need assistance.
From the sloping 3-acre garden, interspersed with pathways, there are excellent walks through the mixed woodland onto heath and moor which opens up to breathtaking views, perfect for hill and dog walkers. In particular there is the Cateran Trail – a 100 mile circular walk through the Angus Glens and Perthshire. Winter sports at Glenshee Ski Slopes provide extensive skiing and snowboarding facilities, and are located just a short drive away. The popular towns of Pitlochry and Blairgowrie are just 13 miles equidistant with a great variety of shops, a theatre, fine dining restaurants, cafés and a distillery, all well worth a visit. Golfers can test their skills on over 30 courses in the area, and for the more adventurous there is mountain biking, fishing and horse riding. Throughout the year many events are held in the region including The Strathardle Gathering every August (Highland Games), The Etape Caledonia Cycling Event in May, The Perthshire Open Studios and The Blairgowrie Book Festival in October, which can be enjoyed whilst staying in this lovely property. Shop, pub and restaurant 1 mile.

Beautiful lodge in a wonderful setting. Lovely place to get away from it all and be emerssed in nature. Great walks with the dog and near enough to Kirkmichael and not far to Pitlochry for more shops. The Lodge itself was aesthetically beautiful and very well equipped. Having the hot tub to relax in was a real plus. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.
