Butchers cottage is beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. Furnishing of great quality. Soft furnishings beautifully coordinated. The kitchen was very well equipped. The breakfast basket was delicious. Coffee, tea, jam, milk, washing up liquid, kitchen roll, cling film and tin foil were also provided. The back patio area was a little bare ,but a sun trap. The village had a good coffee shop Sinclairs, 2 x hotels and of course the family butchers. Lots to do further afield . House of Dun, St Cyrus beach, blue door walk various farm shops with coffee shops .
