Nestled within the spectacular Angus Glens, Glen Doll Cottage is perfectly positioned for outdoor enthusiasts. Walking opportunities are outstanding, with several well-waymarked trails passing close by, including Glen Doll Forest, the White Water Trail and the Dounalt Trail. The nearby Corrie Fee National Nature Reserve is a highlight of the area, famed for its dramatic corrie, rare alpine plants and stunning scenery.

Historic routes such as Jock’s Road to Braemar, Capel Mounth to Ballater, and paths into Glen Clova and Glen Prosen are easily accessed, making the area a renowned hub for hillwalkers and long-distance hikers. Mountain bikers, horse riders and cross-country skiers will also find an excellent network of tracks throughout the glens, while climbers are drawn to the rugged craggy valley sides and varied terrain. Overlooking the cottage, the Munros of Mayar and Driesh offer rewarding ascents with panoramic views across Angus.

Wildlife watching, photography, botany and bird-spotting are all popular pursuits in this unspoilt landscape, while salmon fishing is available on the nearby North and South Esks. Golfers are well served by Kirriemuir and Forfar Golf Clubs, both within easy driving distance.

The lively market town of Kirriemuir, known as the “Gateway to the Glens”, lies around 30 minutes away and offers shops, cafés and attractions including the Gateway to the Glens Museum, the Camera Obscura gifted by Sir J. M. Barrie, and connections to both Peter Pan and AC/DC’s Bon Scott. A welcoming pub and restaurant can be found just 3.5 miles down the glen, completing this superb Highland escape.
