Location

The property forms part of a semi-rural area in the picturesque hamlet of Birse which sits on the south bank of the River Dee, close to the small village of Aboyne, in the heart of Royal Deeside. Aboyne is an attractive small Victorian village in Royal Deeside and the main centre for this rural district. There is a supermarket, academy and primary school and an excellent community centre providing theatre/cinema, swimming pool, badminton courts, library, and gym. The village also has a health centre with five resident doctors, weekly optometrist and audiometric clinics and a cottage hospital.

Deeside, through which the River Dee flows, attracts visitors from far and wide. Nearby Balmoral Castle has been the Scottish home of the Royal Family since it was purchased for Queen Victoria by Prince Albert in 1852. There is a wealth of sport on offer for which Scotland is famed: salmon fishing on the rivers Dee, Don and Deveron, pheasant and partridge shooting on many of the low ground estates, red and roe deer stalking and the opportunity for grouse on the rolling heath hills. The area boasts numerous golf courses. To the east lie Royal Aberdeen and Trump International, both well regarded links courses.
