Lovely comfortable cottage with everything you need. In an absolutely stunning location. Cows with great character in the field beside.. also saw saw deers, hares and lots of different birds. So so peaceful. Towels were really good size (everywhere else we have stayed they are tiny) No local shop so need to make sure you get your shopping in when you are out, Dundee not to far & has all the shops you need. About an hour from St Andrews & Edinburgh (we drove to park & ride & got tram into Edinburgh.
