Monandavan, Dinnet, Aboyne, Aberdeenshire

Situated within the Muir of Dinnet National Nature Reserve and the Cairngorms National Park, it offers a peaceful setting surrounded by unspoilt countryside, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking tranquillity and natural beauty.

Beyond the reserve, the wider estate extends across more than 12,000 acres designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest, renowned for its striking scenery and diverse wildlife throughout the year.
