  • "We were extremely disappointed in our cottage on arrival."

    The advertisement said that it sleeps 6. Which it has enough beds for 6 and 2 bathrooms, however the sitting area and table does not accommodate a family of 6. The dining area chairs are right in front of the doors to a bedroom and makes it too hard to move, the sitting area barely seats 4, and makes it tight to walk. The cottage had cob webs, the show screen had mold and the outside table was moldy. The cottage was overpriced. At the price advertised, we expected a clean and suitably sized cottage, this was not the case at all. There wasn't even paper towel and we needed to request an extra dish cloth and tea towel. The freezer made a beeping noise if you used it, and one of the stove burners didn't work. The cottage is located on a kennel / working farm and while we were there our room backed onto the area where they were working, you could here dogs barking, people working and machinery from all times during the early morning and day. The pool was nice, however we were not provided with any extra towels. I would not recommend this cottage to anyone.

  • "Lovely rural location and very good base to explore the area but equally good for a lazy day in."

    Exceptional care from owner - nothing too much to ask. The swimming pool and hot tub is what makes this cottage though. In the words of our son - I'm SO not looking forward to leaving this place! Highly recommend.

  • "The cottage was lovely and had ample facilities for us, we really enjoyed our stay."

    The owners were friendly and approachable and nothing was too much trouble. We made the most of the facilities and enjoyed being in a fairly rural setting, relaxing and having fun.

  • "We booked the cottage for 3 nights over the new year break and this cosy £1500 which I thought on the expensive side - this was definitely the case given the facilities!"

    The owners are charging high end prices but not delivering high end quality. The beds were really uncomfortable and my husband and I had to sleep separately for the whole 3 nights just to get sleep. It is advertised to sleep 6 but the lay out would only accommodate people with a 3, 1 and 2 due to how beds arranged which is most unlikely. The cottage is tiny with cheap furniture which again was uncomfortable. The pool and hot tub were only available for certain periods and were not great - I think the chemicals were incorrectly applied to be honest. I have to say that if we would have paid half this amount I would not be providing this feedback as you do get what you pay for but on this occasion I felt we didn’t (despite the owner Lynette being lovely and helpful!) I’m afraid we won’t be returning ....

    Many thanks for your feedback, we have fed your comments back to the owner in order to maintain our property standards. Your views are as valued as your initial booking so that we can keep providing the best UK holiday experience. Property Owner

    Was made really welcome on arrival and throughout the week spent in the cottage. Lovely cottage, lovely venue and great sauna, hot tub and pool. The grounds were great for my Damnation to run around and enjoy herself. Would not hesitate in recommending this cottage and venue.

About the location

KIRRIEMUIR

Dundee 18 miles, Aberdeen 55.2 miles

Kirriemuir is a lovely red sandstone town in the valley of Strathmore, regarded as the gateway to the Angus Glens, which offer some of Scotland's most unspoiled landscape. The town is home to the birthplace of novelist JM Barrie, creator of the much-loved children's character Peter Pan and the house is now a museum looked after by the National Trust for Scotland. A statue of Peter Pan can be found in the town. Kirriemuir also offers Glamis Castle and the historic Pictish Stones at Meigle, while the Angus Glens offer great hill walking and climbing. With a fine variety of shops, hotels and pubs in the town and surrounding area, there is something here to suit all tastes.
