As a fan of Lewis Grassic Gibbon, this place was perfect. So much more to see - Air museums, farm shops, beaches, and Montrose Basin with its wildlife (a photographer joined us in a hide, who supplied photos to the wildlife organisation and showed us some of his wonderful photos)! Friendly people, too. ##### Jenny Stewart This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Gill 1 Sept 2019 #### Lovely location sitting up on a hill from nearby Inverbervie. Lovely location sitting up on a hill from nearby Inverbervie. The view from the end of the driveway down to the coast is wonderful. The cottage is well equipped with cooking utensils, washing machine, dishwasher (with tablets in cupboard), microwave and cooker etc. There was milk in the fridge, some tea/coffee for an arrival cuppa and a packet of shortbread. The three bedrooms were comfortable, the upstairs bathroom looked a bit tired but was perfectly functional. It was warm and cosy. Converted from the former school there is plenty of character with high ceilings and large multi-pane windows. Very peaceful location. The Grassic Gibbon centre is next door. The historic St Ternan's church is a short walk away (the final resting place of several of my ancestors) with the memorial to Lewis Grassic Gibbon. The surrounding countryside is beautiful, there are many fabulous beaches to explore and plenty interesting and historical places to visit. ##### Gill ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Moffat Manor Holiday Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moffat-Hotels-Moffat-Manor-Country-Park.h17709438.Hotel-Information) > > [Ardoe House Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberdeen-Hotels-Ardoe-House-Hotel-Spa.h23180.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Edinburgh - Queensferry Crossing](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunfermline-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-Queensferry-Crossing.h1152983.Hotel-Information) > > [Cromlix](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunblane-Hotels-Cromlix.h1580309.Hotel-Information) > > [Glenisle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Isle-Of-Arran-Hotels-Glenisle-Hotel.h2810774.Hotel-Information) > > [Loch Melfort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oban-Hotels-Loch-Melfort-Hotel.h520255.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Glasgow East Kilbride by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Glasgow-East-Kilbride.h520428.Hotel-Information) > > [Queen of the Loch, Balloch by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Queen-Of-The-Loch-By-Marstons-Inns.h33716771.Hotel-Information) > > [Auchrannie Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Isle-Of-Arran-Hotels-Auchrannie-Resort.h4140916.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fenwick Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kilmarnock-Hotels-The-Fenwick-Hotel.h80930.Hotel-Information) > > [Glasgow Westerwood Spa & Golf Resort ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Glasgow-Westerwood-Spa-Golf-Resort.h893990.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kenmore Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberfeldy-Hotels-The-Kenmore-Club.h9234110.Hotel-Information) > > [Lochside House Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cumnock-Hotels-Lochside-House-Hotel-Spa.h900570.Hotel-Information) > > [The Whispering Pine Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Spean-Bridge-Hotels-The-Whispering-Pine-Lodge.h11119972.Hotel-Information) > > [Macdonald Crutherland House and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Macdonald-Crutherland-House-And-Spa.h569463.Hotel-Information) > > [Gleddoch Golf & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Glasgow-Hotels-Gleddoch-Hotel-Spa-Golf.h1502522.Hotel-Information) > > [Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Dalmahoy-Hotel-Country-Club.h21999.Hotel-Information) > > [Parklands Hotel & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Parklands-Hotel-Country-Club.h14766742.Hotel-Information) > > [Duck Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Duck-Bay-Hotel.h30097341.Hotel-Information) > > [The Portpatrick Hotel by Compass Hospitality](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stranraer-Hotels-Portpatrick-Hotel.h13430754.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Boutique Huntingtower Perth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perth-Hotels-Leonardo-Boutique-Huntingtower-Perth.h859382.Hotel-Information) > > [The Busby Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-The-Busby-Hotel.h10004759.Hotel-Information) > > [Coylumbridge Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aviemore-Hotels-Coylumbridge-Resort-Hotel.h520458.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tarbet Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-The-Tarbet-Hotel.h13407451.Hotel-Information) > > [Portavadie](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tighnabruaich-Hotels-Portavadie.h11974275.Hotel-Information) > > [Onich Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-William-Hotels-Onich-Hotel.h48439952.Hotel-Information) > > [Seamill Hydro Hotel & Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/West-Kilbride-Hotels-Seamill-Hydro-Hotel-Resort.h1818213.Hotel-Information) > > [Bowfield Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Johnstone-Hotels-Bowfield-Hotel-Country-Club.h1796965.Hotel-Information)
