Littleton of Airlie Farm Cottage Kirriemuir, Angus Scotland

Set in the Vale of Strathmore in the unspoilt Scottish county of Angus, this is a really charming holiday cottage between Kirriemuir and Blairgowrie. It is beautifully decorated with charm and taste - we think the owner should be an interior designer! In fact she is a well-known garden designer so the cottage garden is stunning - it is the most beautiful place to sit in a summer's evening admiring the flowers or having a barbeque. The cottage is stylish, yet cosy, and a perfect place for a honeymoon in Scotland, or a romantic break for a couple.

The owner lives nearby and is happy to provide local information about off-the-beaten track places to eat and visit. There are five 18 hole golf courses within 10 miles - Rosemount (at Blairgowrie), Alyth, Strathmore, Glenisla and Kirriemuir; and skiing at Glenshee is nearby. There is also great fishing and hillwalking in the Angus Glens. Pitlochry with its excellent theatre is only 30 minutes drive, as is Perth and Dundee. Glamis Castle (childhood home of the late Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother) is just a few miles away and is one of Scotland's most fascinating castles. Kirriemuir was the birthpace of J M Barrie, and this small market town has a feel of times past with excellent local shops.

This is an ideal honeymoon cottage - Scotland is a very romantic country with beautiful hills and glens on the doorstep. The Angus coast isn't far away and has some beautiful white sandy beaches. This is an ideal holiday cottage for a holiday for two (with or without a baby!) - gorgeous interior, amazing walled garden and idyllic location.

Accommodation:
Littleton of Airlie Farm Cottage is beautifully decorated and very well equipped, yet retaining a cottage feel. The cottage sleeps two, and the bedroom can be made up as a super-king or two twin beds - it also has an original cast-iron fireplace. The pretty sitting room has a wood burning stove - ideal for cosy evenings. The spacious bathroom comes with a free standing roll-top bath with an overhead shower. The kitchen is very well-equipped with everything you might need in a luxury holiday cottage.

If you are bringing a baby then a cot and highchair can be provided, and baby-sitting can be arranged (also dog sitting!). There is internet access if you need to collect your emails or be in touch with work. The garden is beautiful at all times of the year - and a barbeque is provided for summer evenings dining al fresco. This cottage is also ideal for an autumn or winter break - whether skiing in Glenshee or just relaxing in this delightful cottage. An additional superb service is the provision of delicious home-made meals for your arrival or during your stay - this makes staying in a self-catering cottage very easy as you could avoid cooking on your holiday.
