  • Nicholas

    Possibly even more spacious than it appeared from the photos, and definitely a place we would love to return to. Owners great in terms of providing directions, local recommendations and info and flexibility.

  • Evelyn

    Finished to a very high standard and was perfect for my family and our dogs. Has everything you need for cooking/baking. The library with books / games / jigsaws is great. Bed linen is lovely and perfect fluffy towels. David was extremely responsive and accommodating. Absolutely no complaints or tips - stayed in a lot of cottages over the years and this is by far the best of the bunch. David and Elaine have thought of everything for a perfect stay for the hoomans and fur-babies. We will be back :)

  • Melanie

    It was spacious inside and out. The views were stunning, the location was handy to nearby towns and villages and not too far from Dundee. David & Elaine were very welcoming and went the extra mile with the welcoming hamper and pooch extras. The facilities are great and as a family we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will definitely book again. 10/10
