This is very comfortable, well furnished accommodation. It is very quiet and peaceful and was perfectly located for my work at the nearby hospital. I hope to be back to stay with you again in the near future.
Well worth the money next to park and quiet pub the park has a adult workout and the flat is very clean plus a quiet pub and on the end of the town centre that's quiet
We had a great long weekend in Oct/Nov. The village is fantastic with a traditional butcher, farm shop and amazing cafe, all on a lovely high street. A wonderful park across the road which the dog loved. Lots of amazing walks nearby. The flat was cosy and there were some lovely treats on arrival. Great for dog owners too.
Super flat in a lovely, perfect location for town amenities and for dogs. Flat was very well equipped with modcons including Wifi and Netflix. For some reason I could not get free view on the TV so in between Netflix films I was watching NBNews and AfricanNews! Really recommend this property for a holiday in Edzell.
Rented as a four adult family, plenty of room, Well presented property with everything you need. Good walking area , Convenient for local shops and pub.
The flat was easy to find and the instructions to get in were straightforward and easy to follow. The flat was clean, tidy, well maintained and well-equipped. There was a welcome basket, and treats for our dog, which was a lovely gesture. We had a great few days there and would highly recommend it.
Helpful owners. Beautifully presented. Obviously newly refurbished. A great base for us for a few days. Food in Panmure Arms, over the road, recommended, as is the Glenesk Hotel, five minutes walk away. Edzell is gorgeous. Take a walk down to the Shakin Brig, beautiful.
