Stylish Barn Conversion, Woodland Views, Angus | House in Kirkton of Kingoldrum
2 Bedroom House in Kirriemuir, Kirkton of Kingoldrum
Summary:
A stylish single-level barn conversion with peaceful beech woodland views, in a restored Victorian courtyard steading on the 800-acre Kinclune Estate. A light-filled open-plan living space, two bedrooms and two shower rooms (one ensuite). Enclosed courtyard with seating, firepit and festoon lights. Dog-friendly and nature-rich, with walks from the door, stargazing at night and EV charging on request. Sleeps four.
The Space:
Curlew is a serene base for walking, birdwatching and stargazing, and the rhythm of a stay here tends to set itself: morning coffee looking into the beech woodland, a day out in the glens or on the estate, then evenings around the firepit under the festoon lights. Red squirrels, deer and curlews are all regularly spotted nearby.
The cottage occupies part of the striking Kinclune Victorian courtyard steading, and the conversion has kept the rustic heritage of the original building while making the interior thoroughly contemporary. At 138m2 and entirely on one level, it is a genuinely spacious cottage, and it suits couples, families and friends equally well.
LIVING SPACE. A spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area with woodland views, fast WiFi, a Smart TV and a fully equipped kitchen.
BEDROOMS AND BATHROOMS. The master has a superking bed and an ensuite shower room, and can be converted to twin singles. The second bedroom has a kingsize bed (or twins) with its own additional shower room, so neither pair is sharing. Both shower rooms suit guests with limited mobility, though the cottage is not fully wheelchair accessible.
OUTSIDE. An enclosed 320m2 courtyard with festoon lights, a firepit and outdoor seating, shared with one other steading cottage. Curlew is entered from within the courtyard, with dedicated parking.
Guest Access:
Guests have exclusive use of Curlew Cottage. The courtyard is shared with Kestrel Cottage, the other steading holiday cottage. Guests are welcome to explore the estate via the estate road, which takes you past the farmyard, the beaver pond, Barons Hill woods, East Kinclune Cottage and Jack's Bothy, a traditional stone shepherd's hut about a kilometre from the cottage. Beyond the bothy, ask us for directions to the osprey eyries and the curlew and lapwing within our farmland nature reserve, and look out for the Aberdeen Angus cattle and Highland ponies along the way.
The Neighborhood:
Curlew sits in the Kinclune Steading on the 800-acre Kinclune Estate, in the foothills of the Angus Glens. It is a working, nature-friendly organic estate, and red squirrels, deer and curlews are often spotted nearby. It is a short drive from Kirriemuir, "the Gateway to the Glens", and the edge of the Cairngorms.
The glens (Clova, Isla and Prosen) and the castles at Glamis, Balintore and Brechin are within easy reach, and Glenshee is around 40 minutes away. The Drovers Inn at Memus, the Glen Clova Hotel and Peel Farm shop and cafe are good local spots. For self-catering, Peel Farm farm shop and A Longer Table in Kirriemuir are worth knowing, and Tesco in Forfar delivers to the estate.
Getting Around:
A car is recommended. Kinclune is 15 minutes from the A90, 40 minutes from Dundee, 50 minutes from Perth and 95 minutes from Edinburgh. The nearest railway station is Dundee (around 40 minutes), and the closest airports are Dundee, Aberdeen and Edinburgh. The cottage has dedicated parking.
Other Things to Note:
We partner with TRUVI to carry out secure guest ID verification, helping to ensure a safe and trusted stay for all parties. Once you have completed verification with TRUVI, your stay will be protected by Guest Guarantee and you'll benefit from an accidental damage cover.
Kinclune is a working farm, so there is livestock, wildlife and farm activity around the estate. For everyone's safety, children should be supervised at all times.
Please note that Kinclune is a working estate with other holiday properties. Unless you book the whole estate for exclusive use, other guests may be staying in Kestrel Cottage (which shares the courtyard) or elsewhere on the estate during your visit.
The whole of Kinclune Estate can also be booked for exclusive use, sleeping up to 28 across the house, farmhouse and cottages, or you can combine a mix of the properties to suit your group. Do get in touch if that would suit your plans.
Being on one level, the cottage is a good option for step-free access. A washer dryer is available in the bothy behind the steading during the warmer months (April to October), to prevent pipes freezing in winter. When the steading is in holiday use, no events take place there. An EV charger is available, booked in advance, at a flat £35 per stay including VAT (we reserve the right to charge metered rates for extended or high usage).
Interaction with Guests:
The cottage is set up for self-check-in, so you can arrive in your own time. We'll send clear directions and access details before you travel, and our local housekeeper is on hand throughout your stay to help with anything you need. You'll find guest support contact details in your welcome pack.
