Glen Isla, the most westerly of the five glens, is the only one with a through route accessng the north and south. It is one of the many beautiful glens, such as Glen Prosen, Glen Lethnot, Glen Clova and Glen Doll, which comprise the popular Angus Glens. Each has its own special characteristics and all are well worth a visit. Glenisla is also one of the stopovers on the popular Cateran Trail, a circular walk of 64 miles normally completed in five stages. The trail is named after the cattle rustlers of the 15th-17th centuries and uses ancient paths through glens, hills and farmland.
Easily accessable from Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen, the house and landscaped grounds are set in tranquil countryside in the heart of Scotland.
