018 Beautiful Holiday House, Angus

Sleeps 12

An air of Edwardian bonhomie exudes this beautiful house within the wood panelled walls which is transferred to all who stay here. Just the perfect place to relax!

Built in 1909, this beautiful Arts and Crafts designed house is a very special place indeed.

The sitting room is a large airy room, with open fire, snug area and French windows opening out to the delightful gardens. Next door is the TV room, which is ideal for children, whilst adults are being entertained elsewhere. The elegant dining room, can seat up to 12 people and is situated next to the kitchen.

All the bedrooms are on the first floor, and include one four poster double room, three further double rooms, two twin rooms, two bathrooms and a shower room. It is set within mature gardens and grounds with a croquet lawn, with a river running by, within view of the local golf course. Situated between the Angus coastline and the undulating glens on the East coast of Scotland, between Dundee and Aberdeen. This is a perfect venue to enjoy a beautiful house in peaceful surroundings for a week on holiday with your family, or for just a weekend, but you will wish you stayed longer!

WHAT TO DO IN THE AREA
The five Angus glens are a haven for hill walkers, with the choice of Glen Isla, Glen Prosen, Glen Lethnot, Glen Esk and Glen Clova to choose from.
