Escape the everyday
Comfort, peace and restoration in the breathtaking great outdoors

Live and love the simple life
Cosy and welcoming, yet exuding an air of elegance, your cottage at Glen Tanar is designed to be your home-from-home but better; a place of pure calm where you can imagine nothing other than curling up by the fire with a mug of something warm after a day of adventures.
Be surrounded by charm and quality
Each quirky Victorian-era cottage has been carefully restored with love. Soft hues, warm textures and eco-friendly materials have been combined with restored antiques, British-made fabrics and local art to reflect the Glen outside and the wider Scottish Highlands.
That means real comfort and natural warmth; a relaxing yet characterful space where you can truly get away from it all.
Peace, freedom and memory-making with loved ones
The minimum stay is three nights, giving you space to relax. Enjoy being free of rigid schedules because at Glen Tanar you choose what to do and where to go.
You’ll have everything you need, from electric car/bike charging, secure bike stores and fishing rod storage to barbecues, books and wood-burning stoves. Plus, most cottages are pet-friendly.
This isn’t just accommodation
A stay in one of Glen Tanar's heritage properties gives you a chance to reset, reconnect and breathe.

We had the most wonderful stay on the Glen Tanar estate.The cottages could not have been more beautifully designed and decorated. It was like a very luxurious and spacious home from home.
I have been coming to Scotland for over 70 years and have always stayed in first rate accommodation. This tops them all. A fantastic place to stay, never wanted to leave.
Glen Tanar is the perfect place for a family holiday: splashing in the burn, pony rides, woodland walks, nature hunts, barbeques, and evening picnics round the campfire at the Visitor Centre.
Cottage has exceeded our expectations. Top quality, comfort, facilities and homely.
Very baby and dog friendly and all in all a fantastic weekend!
