Hygge House sits amongst the fertile heartland of Strathmore, a magnificent valley that stretches some 50 miles through the stunning scenery of east central Scotland.

These wide rural plains – which lie between the Grampian mountains and the Sidlaw Hills – boast stunning glens, beautiful rivers, breathtaking beaches and coastline, as well as plenty to see and do.

Ideally situated just 14 miles from Perth, and 12 miles from Dundee, the nearest small town of Coupar Angus offers a small number of shops which include a Co-op, petrol station and The Red House Hotel.

However, located only four miles from here is one of Perthshire’s largest towns, bustling Blairgowrie. As the gateway to Glenshee, it is a thriving tourist destination which caters for year-round sports that include skiing and snowboarding at Scotland’s largest ski area, as well as mountain biking, golfing, and even abseiling, paragliding and even husky trails. This area is also popular with anglers, as well as history lovers, and nature enthusiasts. It is home to a wide range of independent retailers and shops.

Close by, the pretty village of Meikleour boasts the Meikleour Beech Hedge which was planted in 1746, and is officially recognised as the tallest hedge in the world. The Meikleour Arms Hotel and Restuarant is a good destination for a coffee, pub lunch or dinner, with walking routes all around.

Dog walkers and beach lovers can also enjoy a visit to the beautiful sands at Broughty Castle, on the banks of the River Tay.

Families looking for an active day out are extremely well-catered for, with leisure centres boasting flumes and wave machines at both Perth and Dundee, whilst the nearby award-winning Piperdam leisure resort offers a quieter swimming opportunity. Thrill-seekers should head to the outdoor activity centre Nae Limits, where white-water rafting, canyoning and quad biking can be relished.

For a more gentle pastime whilst in Perthshire, there is the opportunity to visit Scone Palace, a stunning historic house and visitor attraction set in beautiful grounds. Slightly further away but also worth a visit, is the majestic Glamis Castle, the childhood home to HM Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother.

And ensuring that every box is certainly ticked when it comes to entertainment and things to do, there are also cinemas in Perth and Dundee, and not forgetting the latter’s renowned V&A museum with café.

The nearest train station is at Perth, and Edinburgh airport is 40 miles away.

Ideally located in the heart of Scotland, Strathmore Valley and the surrounding area of Perth, Dundee and beyond, is the ideal base to enjoy the tranquillity and adventures on offer in a very special part of the country.
