No smoking.. You will love staying in this fabulous property! Adjoining the owner’s property yet completely private, this beautifully presented house provides a tranquil retreat for a restful break. Located on the edge of Montreathmont Forest, it enjoys uninterrupted views across surrounding open countryside. Inside, the sense of quality is enhanced by stylish bedrooms and a spacious living/dining room featuring high ceilings and a large double sided wood burner, perfect for those chillier days.

The house and surrounding area are steeped in World War I history, as it was once a World War I military hospital for soldiers, and Montreathmont Forest was the location of the Montreathmont Camp Radio Station in World War II and as Airship Station in WWI. The listening radio station began as a secret listening post and codebreaking centre, which operated as an outstation of Bletchley Park during World War II and continued to monitor communications during the Cold War. Remains of the site can still be seen today.

The forest is also home to a host of wildlife, including the elusive capercaillie, as is nearby Balgavies Loch which is a birdwatcher’s paradise, where waders, ducks, geese and osprey are often sighted. This part of the world is a hidden gem, as there is the wonderful scenery of the Angus Glens, as well as sandy beaches at Montrose, Lunan and St Cyrus, and all within very easy reach. There are excellent travel links to all the main cities, Dundee, Perth, and Aberdeen are all within an hour’s drive, while the local towns of Forfar, Kirriemuir, Montrose and Carnoustie have lots of local attractions and leisure activities, including excellent golf, tennis and cycling. Beach 12 miles.

This has to one of the best holiday cottages I've stayed in.

This has to one of the best holiday cottages I've stayed in. The specification of the decor, furniture and fittings was top notch. The views from the cottage were outstanding. Plenty of information and Ian the host, very welcoming. Lots to do and see in the surrounding area. Wish to return some day.

Extremely satisfied.

An extemely comfotable property. The owners have clearly put a great deal of thought in to the decor, furnishings and layout. The expansive lounge is a wonderful space. Log burners in both the lounge and sunroom. Lovely views over rolling countryside. The accommodation provides everything you will ever need for a relaxing countryside break. The hosts also genrously provide logs for the fires. We couldn't have been more satisfied.
