Beautiful cottage in a gorgeous, quiet location. There was actually space for another couple. Bit further from central Dundee than expected, but probably better for it.
Not staffed, and no 24hr contact, so potentially problematic if anything went wrong, but that's splitting hairs.

Late summer Scottish break
The booking and check in process and ongoing support for the property was straightforward. Amanda, from the management company was readily available to deal with any queries or issues we might have had.
It is hard to find fault with the interior of the property which met all our expectations above and beyond, and a couple of minor issues were dealt with swiftly by the management company. Indeed, the property appeared to have had a recent makeover, and all the facilities made for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.
Sadly, the exterior of the property let things down. It is situated in what feels like someone else’s garden, with inches separating you from a neighbouring house, with no privacy or screening to stop views into each other’s properties, although fortunately the residents were rarely to be seen. It was therefore difficult to enjoy the balcony at the front of the property, which ironically provided the best views, without feeling you were impinging on someone’s else’s privacy. Fortunately, the decked area made up for this as it provided a secluded area for sitting when the weather was suitable.
Similarly, the ‘garden’ of the property is in fact only a gravelled area, and not green space as you we first thought, and which upon our arrival was desperately in need of a good weed and general tidy up. The unemptied smelling bins did nothing also to provide the sort of welcome you would expect.
Be advised that the advertised parking space is in fact very difficult to access for an average sized family car, unless you are a highly skilled and experienced driver and/or drive a smallish vehicle with an automatic gear box. We were not aware the property is situated on a very steep hill making it extremely difficult to access the parking space due to the angle of the entrance, although fortunately there was plenty of safe on street parking nearby. It would also be helpful to better describe the overall location especially for those with mobility issues.
Overall, despite the disappointment above, this did little to distract from what was otherwise an exceedingly enjoyable holiday!
The communication wasn’t as smooth as with other properties I have used on this website. The off street parking doesn’t accommodate a standard family suv although you can park on the street . As we did . Would use again if in the vicinity as it was clean and warm on arrival.
