Tucked away behind the local award winning craft butcher’s shop, this charming and elegantly furnished cottage is in the heart of the appealing village of Edzell, with its lovely little shops and eating places, as well as a quality parkland 18 hole golf course, one of many in the area. Totally refurbished in 2021 it offers relaxing holiday accommodation for families or couples, with muted colours and tasteful soft furnishings. A perfect base from which to explore the rugged beauty of the nearby Angus Glens. Tarfside and Glenesk are good starting points for some excellent walks amongst stunning scenery and diverse wildlife.

    Travel the length of the Victorian Heritage Trail, passing through Fettercairn with its Gothic Arch and local distillery (where tours can be taken) up through Cairn o’ Mount and into Royal Deeside, ending at Balmoral Castle, or spend relaxing days at the fine sandy beaches at St Cyrus, Lunan Bay and Montrose. There is ample fishing and golf in the area as well as some good eating places, or why not visit some of the stately homes including Glamis Castle. Alternatively travel a little further afield to St Andrews, Dundee or Perth for culture and visitor attractions including the V & A and RSS Discovery.

A wonderful cottage, spotlessly clean, very comfortable, very well furnished and equipped. We had everything we needed including a wonderful breakfast pack from Bel's Butchers which was greatly appreciated.Our stay was short, but we do intend to return.

Just back from a fantastic week staying in the butches cottage in Edzell, Scotland.

Just back from a fantastic week staying in the butches cottage in Edzell, Scotland. It was like home from home, had everything we needed and more. Bel was very welcoming and made us feel very comfortable. The breakfast welcome pack and milk was such a lovely touch and very much appreciated. Especially after a very long 10 hour drive. I highly recommend the butchers cottage, perfect location for walks for a dogs and Dunnottar castle, also the amazing beaches at St Cyprus and Lunan bay a must see. The village of Edzell it's self is very charming and everyone is very friendly and helpful.We will be back in the near future, Sam x
