At a glance

  • Step into this delightful cottage on Airlie Estate with breath-taking views over the Angus countryside
  • Ideal for walkers with woodland and riverside paths, 5 miles from RSPB Loch of Kinnordy Nature Reserve
  • Magnificent open fire perfect for cosy evenings or enjoy the private garden where you may spot roe deer and pheasants
Property code: OC-CA403

Spend time with family and friends, and up to three canine companions, in this elegantly converted former farmstead. Sleeping eight people, the cottage has everything needed for a comfortable stay in the Angus countryside. There's a laundry room with washing machine and dryer, handy for damp walking gear and dog towels, a cosy lounge with open fire and a lovely big garden for a game of fetch. At the foot of the spectacular Angus Glens, and 15.5 miles from the Glen Doll Ranger Centre, there are walks aplenty.

 

Spacious living areas and colourful soft furnishings make this a stylish home-from-home for your group holiday. Four-legged friends have more than enough space to stretch out beside you, whether you're cooking in the bright kitchen/diner, eating a meal all together in the dining room, or relaxing in the lounge. There are no stairs either, so weary legs and excitable paws can rest easy when it comes to bedtime. While you choose which of the four pretty bedrooms to sleep in, your hound will reserve the best seat in the house to curl up: the warm spot by the fire. Wake to the sight of countryside views through the bedroom windows, and take your breakfast outside to the seating as your dog sniffs their way across the wide garden lawn.

 

In Kirriemuir (5.5 miles) you can stock up on food and treats in the supermarket, browse the local shops, and order lunch at the dog-friendly cafe. Visit J. M. Barrie's Birthplace, and kids can play on the Peter Pan Park while pups bound around on the large grassy field beside it. At Glamis Castle (11 miles) the gardens are open to dogs on leads, and there is The Walled Garden, The Italian Garden, and two trails to discover. Further on, take a drive west and wander through the woodland to see the impressive Reekie Linn Waterfall (15 miles).

Beautiful Cottage, perfect location, everything you could want for a great holiday. My grandchildren loved the cows in the field, they just sat there and talked to them for ages. Would highly recommend this cottage for family and friends.

An excellent cottage, located slightly off the beaten track with a huge garden and lovely views. Provisions available within a ten minute drive. Good base for travelling for days out in Angus, from the coast to the glens. The cottage is very well equipped and was ideal for three generations and two dogs.
