West Eninteer Cottage is located 30 miles west of Aberdeen, in the rolling hills of Aberdeenshire, and 5 miles from Alford. Part of a converted barn/steading, it is light and modern with limestone tiles and bamboo flooring throughout, and underfloor heating to keep you warm. The kitchen is very well-equipped with cooking and serving utensils and there is a garden with barbecue available for guests to use. A complimentary food basket is supplied on arrival with cake, eggs, bread, butter and milk, and the owners are happy to provide other local produce on request at retail prices. A wide selection of teas and coffee is provided along with olive oil, salt and pepper.
You are welcome to explore the farm and get involved in feeding the animals collecting your own eggs and picking your own seasonal vegetables and fruit. At lambing time, you can also help to feed the newly born lambs. Guests have access to 2½ miles of farm woodland walks, with beautiful views over surrounding farmland to the hills including Bennachie, a well known local hill landmark. The owners are keen gardeners, and you are welcome to relax in the extensive gardens and enjoy the superb views.
With little light pollution, the location is perfect for sitting out in the evening, star gazing whilst enjoying a glass of wine. The nearest town, Alford, has a pub, restaurant, shops, supermarket, parks and museums. Balmoral, the King’s Highland residence, is only a 45-minute drive, and it is only 10 miles from the stunning Cairngorms National Park with its excellent walking, climbing and winter sports amongst some of the finest Scottish Munros (mountains over 3000ft).
There are lots of mountain biking trails and road cycling opportunities nearby, together with horse-riding, fishing on the famous Dee and Don rivers, and golf courses. There are many National Trust for Scotland properties in the area including Craigievar, Crathes, Drum, Castle Fraser and Leith castles, and world-famous distilleries nearby. Throughout the summer, some local towns hold Highland Games or shows, including famous events such as the Braemar Highland Games and the Lonach Gathering.
