Try your local MP John "Thurso" Sinclair. He owns it.

Glutt Lodge was once part of the Sinclair family estates and the estate office would hold records of its history as a shooting lodge.

The old lodge was demolished in the 1960's and is now occupied by a cattle court. The property for let is the former shepherd's house. It's not too far to the Eas Glutta or the falls of Glutt and a little further takes you to the source of the Thurso which drains down from the Knockfinn heights on the county march. God's own country!

​freddy is now retired and a man called Gus has taken over. Ring the dunbeath estate and they will rent out the lodge. Only certain Times of year though.
