History of Glen Clova

Our hotel dates from 1850 and was first known as the Ogilvy Arms Hotel. In July 1922, it became property of the Batchelor family, and it has remained with them ever since. Re-named Glen Clova Hotel, after the Glen Clova Estate upon which it sits, it is now owned by Mrs Batchelor's great-grandson, Hugh Niven, and his family. In addition to the 10 traditional rooms in the original hotel, Glen Clova now also offers 8 additional rooms in the modern steading building, plus 9 self-catering lodges and 2 holiday houses on the grounds. We offer a range of drinks and dining options in our Glen Logie Restaurant, Climber's Bar and Brandy Bothy. We are also a popular Scottish wedding venue, hosting beautiful events for up to 120 guests.

The Glen Clova Estate comprises land that is used for sheep and cattle grazing as well as game shooting. It's a spectacular setting in the Angus Glens, located in picturesque settlement of Milton of Clova, near Kirriemuir. From walking and cycling to fishing and golf, there is plenty to keep guests entertained here. We can also arrange a choice of outdoor activities, including clay-pigeon shooting and photography tours.

So whether you're a guest here to stay in one of our hotel rooms, lodges or houses, or a hill walker just stopping by for a well-earned pint, our friendly team look forward to welcoming you to Glen Clova!
