The picturesque settlement of Milton of Clova is the location of the Glen Clova Hotel. Here, we offer both hotel rooms and self-catering options. We provide convenient accommodation and dining for the many walkers and climbers who enjoy the magnificent scenery of this area. Munro Baggers will be happy to know there are 10 mountains of 3000 ft and over in the glens, just waiting for them. With constantly changing landscapes and magnificent scenery, there could be no better place to enjoy the tranquillity and beauty that these glens are so famous for.

A botanist’s paradise

Arguably the loveliest of the glens, Glen Clova is a botanist’s paradise. Blanketed in rare alpine flowers, every season offers its own programme of sights and sounds. The rugged and remote Glen Doll is at the head of the valley. This is a popular and challenging spot for outdoor enthusiasts. The Cairngorms dominate this end of the glen. Footpaths lead to Braemar via Jock’s Road, Ballater and the Capel Mounth, and to Glen Prosen via the Kilbo Path. Glen Isla boasts the spectacular waterfall of Reekie Linn, the winding River Isla, the Loch of Lintrathen and the brooding Backwater Reservoir. Glenprosen is cloaked in green thanks to its thickly wooded slopes. Running through the glens, the Prosen water rises in the Braes of Mar in the Eastern Grampians, through the wooded valley to Strathmore.
