Candacraig House, perfect for sporting vacation in Scotland

January 18, 2021 //  by Stewart Collingswood

Candacraig House is stunning exclusive use country house near the Aberdeen rivers Don and River Dee.

This stunning Victorian house sits in 18 acres of private grounds. A short walk in the garden, will take you to a private trout lochan, fed by the River Don. There’s also a stunning walled garden, with an array of unusual plants, fruits and shrubs. This luxury fishing accommodation is the ideal getaway and offers the highest levels of customer service yet a warm and relaxing stay.

Candacraig House is close to the River Don, which is a superb salmon river in its own right. The Don is though of as one of the best wild brown trout river fishing in Scotland. The River Dee is also accessable from Candacraig, and perhaps offers a greater mixture of salmon beats.

In fact, Candacraig location makes it possible (with a 1 hour drive North) to access the River Spey. You might also enjoy the drive to the Spey, through some of Scotland’s most scenic and rugged landscapes.

Candacraig was once the private residence of the Scottish comedian Billy Connolly and at one time alive with visiting celebrities and media attention. Since buying the property the current owners have developed

Candacraig into one of Scotland’s most beautiful homes and a stunning retreat in the Cairngorms National Park. This is the only true wilderness in Scotland and offers stunning outdoor experiences, such as walking, sightseeing, wildlife tours, and fishing.

Ideal for large groups looking for a private retreat. Please contact us to make an enquiry.
