Historic rewilding estate with beaver tours in Alyth
Amenities
Bamff Ecotourism offers guided beaver walks with estate owner Paul, along with self-guided walking tours across the rewilding grounds. Guests can join tour or class about local culture, rent bicycles from the property, and use the BBQ facilities and picnic area in the garden. The shared lounge and shared kitchen provide spaces for relaxation and meal preparation, while an honesty shop sells eggs, chocolate, and kindling.
Rooms
Holiday homes are housed in a historic building and include options such as the Gate Lodge, Easter Cottage, the Brewhouse, and the Rewilding Hut. The Gate Lodge offers a two-bedroom bungalow with an enclosed garden, wood burner, and comfortable double beds. The Rewilding Hut is a shepherd's hut in its own clearing with a compost toilet and access to a conventional shower room in the main house.
Location
The estate is located 32 km from Discovery Point and Scone Palace, 22 km from Glamis Castle, and 31 km from Dundee Airport. Guests can access skiing and golf courses nearby, with hiking trails on the property. The town of Alyth and Blairgowrie offer shops and restaurants, while the estate itself provides a peaceful setting for nature trips.
Pet-Friendly
Pet-friendly cottages such as the Gate Lodge and Easter Cottage include fully enclosed gardens for dogs. Off-lead walking opportunities exist within the estate's grounds, and the welcome pack provides trail maps. The property allows pets and offers a secure garden that one guest described as ideal for a Labrador.
Family-Friendly
Family rooms are available in cottages like Easter Bamff and the Gate Lodge, with board games and puzzles provided. Kids can wander among wild ponies, pigs, and peacocks, and find rope swings in the woods. Evening beaver walks with Paul offer families the chance to watch beavers swimming and foraging in the twilight.
“This rewilding estate offers a truly restorative escape, with expansive grounds teeming with wildlife and peaceful walks directly from your door. The generously sized, well-equipped cottages, complete with wood-burning stoves, are ideal for settling into the Scottish countryside, whether enjoying patio sunshine or sheltering from the elements. It's a place that reconnects you with nature in a profound way, making the limited Wi-Fi a welcome quietude rather than an inconvenience.”
James DavidEditor-in-Chief at Uktayside
