5* Luxury Accommodation with indoor pool
Welcome to the ancient and historic Logie Country House, set on its own 140 acre Scottish Country estate.
Logie Elphinstone House was built in the 1670s near the Royal Burgh of Inverurie, 17 miles to the west of Aberdeen. The self contained, luxury guest wing of the house is available for holiday letting. Joined to the main house by the tower, with it's own private entrance from the north drive, it comfortably sleeps 8-10 in five bedrooms.
Inside the property is spacious & warm, while still retaining the feeling of it's roots in Scottish centuries past.
Outside is a sheltered, courtyard with deep borders of flowers, pots of herbs and vegetables in tubs. Across the courtyard is a well equipped gym, in the old gamestore and an 8 person Jacuzzi. Across the courtyard is a 9 meter indoor infinity pool in the main part of the house.
The lawn, gardens and ancient woodland, make a tranquil place for walking, picnics, fishing and relaxing. The drive is lined with cherry trees and there are apple, plums, gooseberries, redcurrants, raspberries and pears for the taking. There is a trampoline and climbing frame for children, tame free range chickens and a stable block. The river Urie runs through the garden before joining the Don. It teems with brown trout and is rarely fished.
The garden is frequented by red squirrel, deer, heron, rabbits otters and buzzards.
Woodpeckers feed in the courtyard, swallows nest in nearly every south facing upstairs window and owls perch on the tower at night . Wagtails and swifts nest in the outhouses. Water vole are being re-introduced to the river and there are otters there already.
The house faces south, has beautiful views over the foothills of Bennachie from the lawn and is about 5 miles from the Royal burgh of Inverurie. There are easy travel links by car from the A96, by air from Aberdeen Airport (18 miles) and by train from Inverurie (5 miles).
