Located on a private estate in Central Scotland, Pinemarten is a contemporary holiday chalet surrounded by rugged mountains with views of a loch and Glen Dochart. The chalet has recently been completely rebuilt and the exterior is now finished in beautiful Scottish Larch, helping it fit in with the natural surroundings. Sit out on the raised deck at the front of the chalet and take in those breathtaking views before heading down to explore the estate. In the evenings, put your feet up in the cosy living room and enjoy the sunset through the floor to ceiling windows.
The spacious, open-plan living and kitchen area is centred around that spectacular view. Whether you’re rustling up dinner in the kitchen, tucking into breakfast at the table or relaxing on the sofa, you’ll be able to enjoy the views over the mountain of Ben More and Loch Luibhair through the big patio doors and floor to ceiling windows. This also means that the space is flooded with natural light during the day and in the warmer months you can throw open those patio doors onto the deck outside and extend your living space.
The chalet accommodates up to four guests in two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. The main bedroom features a luxurious king size double bed and an ensuite shower room while the second bedroom is a twin, perfect for the kids. The second bathroom features a bath with a power shower and all of the beds have high quality sprung mattresses with cashmere tops and soft Egyptian cotton bed linen.
The location is a haven for those looking to explore the outdoors with the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park on your doorstep and access to the Portnellan Estate’s fantastic facilities. As well as heading out on the trails on foot or by bike, you can explore by canoe, kayak or paddleboard on the estate’s loch and river. Clay pigeon shoots can be arranged and you could also have a go at a bit of trout or salmon fishing. Venturing a little further afield into the national park and you’ll find yourself surrounded by more stunning scenery, including Britain’s largest body of freshwater and nearly 40 miles of coastline to explore.
Please note: minimum stay for this property is: 3 nights low season & 7 nights high season
