Location
Airlie House is situated close to the small village of Dykehead, at the foot of Glen Clova and Glen Prosen, just to the south of Tulloch Hill on which sits the Airlie Monument. Glen Clova and Glen Prosen are two of the most picturesque Angus Glens which reach deep into the Grampian Mountains. Glen Prosen has been described as an unspoilt backwater, while Glen Clova is noted as being steep, craggy and dominant with great scooped hanging corries ringed by cliffs. At the head of the glen is Glen Doll. The whole area is renowned for its rich diversity of flora and fauna and the upper part of these glens lie within the Cairngorms National Park.
Airlie House is ideally placed for those who wish to enjoy the range of locally available outdoor pursuits. The spectacular scenery offers ample opportunity for walking and mountaineering. Jock’s Road, a well known track through the hills to Braemar, begins in Glen Doll. There are further routes north to Loch Muick and through Glen Clova and Glen Prosen. Fishing may be taken on the River South Esk. Golf courses in the area include Kirriemuir, Alyth, Rosemount at Blairgowrie, and Carnoustie. Other pursuits include loch fishing at Lintrathen, skiing at Glenshee in the winter months and riding, which is available locally. Low and high ground shooting can be taken on local estates. Other local attractions include Loch of Kinnordy Nature Reserve and Glamis Castle and there are pleasant sandy beaches at Lunan Bay, St Cyrus and Montrose.
There is a primary school at Cortachy with secondary schooling at Webster’s High School in Kirriemuir, which is an attractive town only some 5 miles from the A90 dual carriageway, allowing easy access to both Aberdeen and the north and to Dundee and the south. It is the birthplace of J M Barrie, author of Peter Pan, who gifted the nearby Camera Obscura to the town. It has a good array of independent shops and a supermarket, plus leisure, business and community facilities. Forfar, the county town, has a wide range of services including a new sports and leisure centre. Dundee provides all that is expected of a major city with two universities and renowned cultural facilities, including the V&A museum. Private schooling is available at Dundee High School with a dedicated bus service from Forfar. Other private schools include St Leonards, Strathallan and Glenalmond, as well as Craigclowan in Perth and Kilgraston. There is a railway station at Dundee with main line services, including a sleeper to London. Aberdeen and Edinburgh airports provide a range of domestic and international flights, and there is a service from Dundee to Heathrow. Journey times to Aberdeen have been much reduced by the Western Peripheral Route. Armstrongs at Roundyhill, the Strathmore Arms at Glamis and the Drovers Inn at Memus are well known local restaurants.
Description
Airlie House is a fabulous country house occupying a most enviable position with stunning and far reaching views over Strathmore to the Sidlaw Hills, and behind into the glens. The setting is spectacular. Originally a row of three estate cottages, the property was converted into one house and extended in the 1990s and benefited from further improvements in 2015, when the kitchen was refurbished. It is now a most comfortable house with good sized reception rooms and two downstairs bedroom suites, while upstairs are four further bedrooms and two additional bathrooms. As such it is an ideal family home, which is perfect for entertaining, or would also make a gorgeous holiday home, given its position. Many of the rooms face south benefitting from the views. It is an attractive stone built house, with a slate roof, is double glazed and has extensive and enclosed gardens of some 2.6acres.
A gravelled drive leads to a courtyard with two garages at the back of the house. The entrance door opens to a part timber-lined hall with two walk in cupboards. A glazed door, allowing plenty of light and making the most of the views, opens to a conservatory with stone flag floor. To one side of the hall is the principal bedroom suite with a bedroom with bay window, fireplace and wardrobe, while a dressing room/additional bedroom has a walk in wardrobe, and a bathroom with a bath, washbasin, shower and separate WC. To the other side is a split-level inner hall with walk in cupboard, bookshelves and a WC with washbasin. The charming drawing room has a fireplace at either end, and a bay window with window seat. Beyond is the dining room, again with a fireplace, and a study with French doors to the garden. Bedroom 2 has a fireplace and a dressing room/en suite with walk in and shelved cupboards, washbasin with vanity unit, bath and separate WC. There is a hatch with attic ladder to a useful floored loft. The well equipped dining kitchen has fitted wooden units with granite worktops, Siemens induction hob, Blomberg dishwasher, sink with waste disposal, Siemens double oven/grill, Liebherr fridge, together with wooden flooring and ample space for informal dining. Off the kitchen are cupboards including a larder, one with plumbing for a washing machine, and a back entrance hallway.
A concealed door from the dining room opens to stairs up to the first floor landing with storage cupboards. There are four further bedrooms, two bathrooms and a storeroom. Bedroom 3 has a wardrobe and under eaves cupboards, while bedroom 5 has walk in cupboards and under eaves cupboards. Bedroom 6 has a wardrobe.
Outside by the courtyard are two garages with up and over doors and a woodstore. The extensive gardens, enclosed by hedges and fencing, are mainly down to lawn with strategically placed seating areas. To one side of the house is a rose arbour, while in front are delightful paved and grass terraces, ideal seating areas for the views. On the other side is a vegetable garden with a greenhouse. There is also a pond.
