Located just 4 miles from the centre of Montrose and a couple of miles from the nearest shop and pub, there is plenty to discover in the area. Glorious sandy beaches in Montrose, Lunan Bay or St Cyrus are wonderful for bracing walks or playing in the sand.

Away from the coast are the Angus Glens which form the foothills of the Grampian Mountains, with myriad walks and trails to be discovered. Golf, tennis and a leisure pool are in the town itself, or further afield the cities of Dundee and Aberdeen are almost equidistant and have plenty of shops, eateries and theatres for an alternative day out.

Really lovely break from the real world. Lovely hot tub with unspoilt views. Reluctant to recommend this place as I don't want it fully booked next year when we hope to stay again. Prosecco 🥂 and chocolates was also a nice touch.

The hut is lovely, we were a little disappointed with the bed, the mattress was very thin at a couple of points and you can feel the hard bed when turning round. The shower head broke but that was just one of those things. A mini hi dri for towels to dry would be a great addition for the hot tub. Overall we had a lovely stay and woukd consider this again. Thank you.
