About this listing
From the outside, Glen Dye’s Number 2 Steading Cottage’s traditional stone construction looks like you can step right into history. However, the inside is tastefully decorated in an upbeat, modern style with a collection of inspiring artwork. One bedroom upstairs and one bedroom downstairs means that everyone in your party will be able to enjoy companionship without sacrificing privacy. Beyond the cottage itself, a stay at Glen Dye offers a wealth of extra amenities.
Two spacious bedrooms mean that you, three of your closest friends, and up to two dogs can enjoy a stay at Number 2 Steading Cottage. One bedroom features a king-sized bed while the other is outfitted with two small double beds. A rainfall shower is the perfect way to ease into the day or unwind after an adventure. When those adventures get messy, you will have access to a washer and dryer. If needed, an electric vehicle charging station is located on-site.
The crowning jewel in Number 2 Steading Cottage is an expansive south-facing window in the sitting room. Although it is a window now, it used to be where tractors entered the building. A collection of comfortable seating makes the perfect place to kick back and relax in front of the wood-burning stove in the living space. Because there is no television, you can soak in nature’s natural beauty and have great conversations. However, Bluetooth speakers mean that you can enjoy some of your favorite tunes. Wi-Fi means that you will never feel too disconnected.
A dining table set for four is the perfect place to serve a homemade meal, play a card game, or simply chat. You will find the well-stocked kitchen next to the dining room. Coffee lovers will have the opportunity to try out a Technivorm Moccamaster. To have a fridge filled with local goodies, pre-order Glen Dye groceries before your stay. Some of these include fresh-laid eggs from chickens on the property, local produce, home-cooked meals that are ready to heat, and pantry staples. For a taste of the area, check out the wild venison and cider ragu. Several delightful nearby restaurants are a great way to experience Scottish cuisine at its finest.
Outside, your party can enjoy a private yard, a wood-fired hot tub, a Gozney Roccbox pizza oven, and a big green egg. Two tables mean that everyone can enjoy al fresco dining with incredible views. Venture beyond your cottage to discover the custom-built Welsh wood-fired sauna and the Glen Dye Arms. The Glen Dye Arms is a bring-your-own-beverage pub complete with a historic bar, blazing fire, and record player.
Depending upon when your stay is, you might even be able to pick your own seasonal vegetables. An on-site shop makes it easy to pick up essentials. If you need something more specific, there is a farm shop 5 miles away as well as a supermarket 8 miles away. For those who enjoy hiking, there are several great strolls accessible from the property.
Beyond the grounds, you can explore Crathes Castle, Balmoral Castle, Dunottar Castle, Loch Muick, and Clachnaben. Glen Dye is 40 minutes away from the gorgeous golden sands of St Cyrus Beach. Conveniently located only 40 minutes away from the Aberdeen airport, you do not have to travel too far to find your way to Glen Dye’s Cottage Number 2 Steading Cottage to begin the vacation of a lifetime.
