What our customers say about their holidays

  We had a wonderful time at the Old Schoolhouse.

  The house is spacious and well kitted out. The enclosed garden was great for the twins (2yrs old) and our dog. There were unexpected extras, like a generous welcome pack and garden toys in the shed. The location is great; the property is in a small hamlet only a couple of miles from the shops and facilities of Montrose, yet most days we stepped out of the front door and went on walks in the quiet country lanes or down to the estuary and the lighthouse. The local area has lots to do. We went to many good playparks and the beaches (Lunan and St Cyrus especially) are great. House of Dun is great for history buffs and the zoo at Camperdown Park in Dundee has some great animals (tip: we were there mid afternoon when the keepers were feeding the animals and they came forward). Most of all we enjoyed being in the country with open views, walks, tractors, and occasionally wildlife, like deer in the fields and bats flitting at twilight. The hosts Nick and Emma were friendly and helpful on the few occasions we saw them. They really wanted our feedback.

  Peaceful location - quiet roads around for dog walks and woods not far away.

  Magnificent views towards basin from hamlet and locals we met on dog walks all very friendly. House is older and has its character. Learnt how to use Alexa and air fryer on this stay - handy but not convinced. An ikea chair in lounge would be useful as well as upstairs as better back support for our lanky ones. Plenty of space for kids to disappear and eldest who used the big bedroom downstairs said it was perfect for him. Location easy access roads north and south a good attractions very close by, distillery, farm shop, Luann bay big beach and lighthouse walk. If interested in ships - harbour is an ever changing variety of different colour support ships. Great nighttime photos

  This was a lovely, clean property, obviously had been a family home, and was really well-equipped with loads of space for everyone (there were 7 of us including children plus 2 dogs).

  There was thought given to children visiting and safety requirements and our 5- and 2-year olds loved their lower bunk beds. The garden at the rear was secure for both dogs and children. Bowls etc were there for the dogs and plastic plates and bowls, as well as some toys and books, for the children. This was a great base for exploring the surrounding countryside and nearby towns. The house was very warm but we were able to adjust rooms to our preferences quite easily, as instructions were left. We would recommend this property to anyone.

  Lovely well kept and spacious property in a perfect location for beaches, cliff walks and handy access for indoor child activities .

  Bedrooms are large and the bunk beds for the kids with the adaptive lighting was a massive hit. Kitchen is well equipped and again plenty of space to prepare food and a dishwasher to ease the pain after feeding a larger group. Having the enclosed garden was perfect for our dog and great place to gaze at the stars at night. Beaches at Montrose, St Cyrus and Arbroath are amazing and cliff walks at Stonehaven and Auchmithie are must do's in the area. Very friendly hosts and would love to go back at some point in the future.

  The property was lovely and spacious plenty of room for all 7 of us even including our disabled son who is in a wheelchair.

  Part of the reason we choose the house was the down stairs bedroom and it was massive and suits my sons needs to the max. The bunk beds were a total hit with my younger children. The welcome pack we received on arrival was greatly appreciated and the eggs from the owners hens were amazing. There is plenty to do and see locally with lots of lovely beaches and local walks. We had an amazing week and will be booking again next year.
