A lovely place to stay in a quiet street, but within walking distance to the local bar and the town. We used the wee cottage as a base to explore the wider area and then return to a peaceful quiet evening while planning our next day's adventure. Thank you for the wonderful stay

Property has most of what you might need, with a few personal notes, comfy beds reclining coach powerful shower ample storage night lights garden furniture and night lights and WiFi that works. Would have liked a dish drainer and wee shelf or cupboard in bathroom to place items on rather than sink or window sill but only my preference. Access to many outdoor activities too many to mention and town has most of what you might need, with Forfar 13 minutes drive/bus journey with most major shops. Bus service available directly outside the property(don't fear l saw no one queueing) with Stagecoach fast and not too expensive).

There is a lovely secluded garden to the back that is ideal for catching the sun in both the morning & afternoon and is perfect to securely let the dog out. The cottage was right on the edge of Kirriemuir with some peaceful forest walks very close by and is a few minutes drive from the centre of town. We had a lovely week there and hope to return soon so we can explore the area further.
