Great short break

We wanted a short break in a quiet location with the capacity to accomodate our small dog. This property had a nice enclosed garden, was convenient for local towns and also the coast. It fitted the bill perfectly.

The cottage was well equipped and perfect for our needs. The garden was especially good for playing hide and seek! Thank you.

Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit in Angus und Umgebung. Die Unterbringung war sehr gemütlich, gepflegt und liebevoll eingerichtet. Für uns zu zweit hatte es die perfekte Größe.Die Lage war gut für Tagesausflüge in die großen Städte (Dundee, Perth, Aberdeen, Edinburgh) und für Wanderausflüge an die Ostküste und bis in die Highlands. Man muss sich etwas daran gewöhnen, die meiste Zeit auf sehr engen Straßen zu fahren.
