About Prosen Hostel

Originally the village school, the property has been converted into an 18-bed hostel offering accommodation.

Inside Prosen Hostel

With three 4-bedrooms and one 6-bedroom, Glen Prosen Hostel is ideal for families, groups of friends and small organisations. Exclusive use rentals are available for large groups but smaller parties are very welcome and can book individual rooms or bunks. Use of all the facilities, including internet access and Wi-Fi, is available to all guests during their stay and linen is provided.

A ‘green’ hostel, the property is insulated throughout with sheep’s wool to keep the cold at bay. The modern kitchen is fully-equipped and has a fridge, dishwasher, and freezer. The large and welcoming living area has a wood-burning stove, sofa space for relaxing, table-seating for 18, television – and a red squirrel viewing area!

There are four showers and three toilets in the hostel, plus a wet room with shower for those with less mobility. Hot water is in plentiful supply, there’s a laundry room, a drying room and open sheds where bikes and other outdoor equipment can be kept.

Outside Prosen Hostel

Prosen Hostel sits on its own and is surrounded by beautiful, untamed countryside. The hostel has extensive outdoor space, fire pit, seating and a barbecue.

Also available to rent

Tinkerbell Cottage

This half-round property is set amidst trees in the grounds of the Balnaboth Estate, offering a peaceful retreat. Acres of peaceful and secluded countryside surround this magnificent cottage.

Balnaboth House

Balnaboth House

A charming, rambling old house (400yr+) full of character. Very quirky and probably unlike anywhere else you've stayed. Tucked into the hills on the edge of the spectacular Cairngorm Mountains.

Activities in the area

Walking is a very popular activity in Glen Prosen. There are lovely low-level walks and testing climbs throughout the glen, which also offers access to several of the other Angus Glens, various Munros, the Cairngorms Plateau and the Cateran Trail.

This is also a very good area for mountain biking, cycling, climbing, kayaking and many other outdoor activities. And in winter, we’re only a couple of glens away from Glenshee Ski Centre.

If you’re looking for a more relaxing activity, Glamis Castle is nearby. In Kirriemuir, Barrie’s Birthplace offers a fascinating look at the childhood of the creator of Peter Pan, while his gift to the town, a Victorian Camera Obscura, provides sweeping views of the surrounding hills and mountains.

There are also two excellent museums – The Gateway To The Glens and Tayside Police Museum.
