Guest Reviews
- Helen (10/5): A quiet restful few days - It was warm cosy and tasteful with lots of morning sunshine Excellent for walking the dog in the grounds and on the nearby beach Very peaceful retreat
- V195E (10/5): 3 night stay - The hosts communicated well, it was away from the busyness of the city. And the bonus was being able to barbeque while there!
The milk and biscuits were very much appreciated!
Having a little mini garden there was also brilliant! Not having a microwave, but that really did not hinder our stay at all.
- Emma (6/5): Overall very nice but we wouldn’t go again just because we would want something bigger but I think this is in a great ar - It was clean and light
Situated in a good area near to beach 2 miles away
Beds comfortable
Great WiFi connection and TV also has projector but we didn’t use this
Enclosed garden was nice for our dogs
Coffee machine was great as my partners big on coffee
Cooker was good we had a lot of meals in the property
The shortbread and milk on arrival was a great little touch
The host was very nice and great communication No where to dry cloths
Felt like we was in someone’s back yard which felt abit strange like a ‘granny flat’
Kitchen table is wobbly which was annoying easy fixed with some cardboard under the leg
Was very small in terms of storing cloths I think this property it great for a couple but not a family unless you are used to small spaces and living out of your suitcase
No coat hangers which there could be some under the stairs or by the front door
No door mat to wipe feet as you enter the property
The property did warm up but took some times I think summer time would be great here but I think without heating other than under the floor winter would be difficult would benefit from a fire/log fire
- Roland (9/5): A gem of a property and an ideal location to explore the Angus coastline. - Excellent accommodation in a quiet and attractive location. Very well appointed and comfortable.
Instructions clear and concise. A very minor point, the bothy would benefit from a set of kitchen utensils.
- Waterston (10/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): Beautiful bothy in a sheltered spot to watch the sun rise and hear the birds sing. A short walk to Lunan beach and only - We loved the mezzanine bedroom, wet room, underfloor heating, enclosed garden and bi fold doors very comfortable indeed. There was no microwave, I think if staying longer than 3nts you’d need one-maybe?
- Nathalie (10/5): -
- Angela (10/5): Lovely two night stay had everything you need. Beautiful grounds - Clean, quaint and peaceful
- Emma (10/5): -
- Rebecca (8/5): -
- Heather (9/5): -

- Gillian (10/5): Fantastic get away in a lovely wee house. - Everything! Very friendly hosts with excellent communication ensured we easily found and accessed the property. It is a picture perfect little house which was spotlessly clean and ideal for our needs. Easy walk to beautiful Lunan Bay and a short drive to Arbroath for our eating out needs. All good!
- Steven (8/5): - Great location, fabulously doggy friendly, so clean and well kitted out.
Communication with the hosts was excellent and on hand to sort out even the smallest things.
Would definitely stay again. N/A
- Lesley (10/5): Don't hesitate, book it. - We booked the Bothy for a crafting retreat.It far exceeded our expectations. The hosts communication was excellent. The Bothy was spotless, very well equipped, the fixtures, fittings and furnishings were all of the highest standard and well maintained. The garden and patio area were just lovely and everything was clean and well.organised. The beds were so comfortable and the heating and hot water were perfect for 3 adults and a wee dog. Would highly recommend. Not a thing to dislike.
- Karen (10/5): Thoroughly enjoyed our couple of days at the Bothy. Would definitely recommend it. Thank you Angus and Amy for having us - Just what we needed for our couple of days away. Accommodation was clean bright and situated in a quiet area. Everything that we wanted for our stay. Nothing
- Jan (10/5): Rural chique genieten op het platteland - We genoten van ons verblijf in de gezellige en smaakvol ingerichte Bothy. Mooi landelijk gelegen op de National Cycling Route 1 die wij een stuk volgden langsheen de Noordzeekust. Een bezoek aan Dundee is zeker de moeite waard. Wij bezochten er de RRS Discovery waarmee Captain Scott in 1901 op expeditie ging naar Antarctica.
- Malcolm (9/5): - The attention to detail is fantastic, Angus and Amy have certainly put a lot of work into the conversation.
Absolutely loved the place ,would definitely come back. Only comment I had and already said to Angus...a couple of whisky glasses would have made everything perfect.
- J (8/5): -
- Elizabeth (10/5): We loved it the bothy it was great 10/10 the host was there if you needed loved the location the projector was a bon - So peaceful everything you needed close to the beach we had the best time. Nothing
- Youri Devlaminck (10/5): -
- Stacey (9/5): - Lovely clean, compact accommodation. So peaceful. Owners very helpful Stairs are very steep and narrow
- Laura (9/5): Superb -
- Heather (9/5): Comfortable and clean - Fantastic location, good base to explore the area, very peaceful. Hosts checked in via text a few times to make sure all OK. Clean, modern cottage, very comfortable. Not really a dislike but would have preferred a fully enclosed garden as my dog is an escape artist.
- Gintare (10/5): Exceptional - The location was really nice, place very nicely looked after and perfect space outside for dogs
- Mel (10/5): Absolutely perfect - Beautiful, modern, ideal stay Nothing to dislike!

Amazing! There was nothing not like
Hosts were amazing
- Sharon (10/5): Very relaxing and enjoyable. - Hosts were very informative and checked in throughout the stay. The property was unique and modern. Lovely to sit outside in sun. Very clean Some little homely touches missing like cushions on the couch. Not great for anyone with mobility issues getting upstairs
- Sarah (10/5): Lovely few days away - Clean, bright and modern property. The projector screen was a bonus too! N/A
- Mark (10/5): Exceptional -
- Emma (10/5): Lovely stay, so close to the beach, 15min drive into Arbroath and the Bothy had everything we needed. The patio area was - Brilliant stay at the Bothy. It had everything we needed and the hosts were great!
- John (10/5): Very peaceful and perfect for a getaway break. - Location and cottage are very nice, projector in the living room is a really nice touch.
- Tracey (10/5): Great little hideaway - Beautiful little place. Bright, fresh and clean, well designed to make the best use of the space. Comfortable bed. Loved the projector!
Quiet and peaceful with nice walks in the local area or just a short drive to lunan beach. A welcome change from the hustle of daily life and a great way to recharge.
The host was great - on hand if required but in no way intrusive.
Definitely on the "return to" list! The sofa is quite deep so some cushions to support would be nice, but really no big deal.
Bedside lights are very bright.
- Jenny (10/5): Highly recommend, lovely stay in a beautiful wee home, everything perfect. - Super cosy, clean and well equipped. Easy to find with hosts directions, key easy to access, everything was perfect.
- Cristiana (10/5): Great stay near the beach! - We had a great stay at the Bothy. The hosts, Angus and Amy were brilliant at communicating, making our stay as relaxing as possible. The bothy itself is decorated beautifully and very comfortable. We brought our two dogs, so the little secure side garden was handy. The Bothy is located near Lunan Bay Beach, which is simply stunning. We went each day during our stay. We also visited Arbroath. We enjoyed our stay so much that we have booked again! Highly recommend!
- Jeanne (10/5): Amazing stay in stunning surroundings - Immaculate, modern cute cottage. Beautiful location in very peaceful surroundings. Angus & Amy were perfect hosts. We absolutely loved our stay & cannot wait to return. Thank you for allowing us to share your stunning cottage. N/A
- Kirsty (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful Bothy in the most peaceful location. Perfect for a little getaway! Lovely, helpful hosts- would definitely stay again
- Flora (10/5): Exceptional - Love everything about the Bothy fun, cosy place to stay, had everything we needed, would recommend to friends and family. There was nothing we didn’t like.
- Jade (8/5): Very good - The bothy and surroundings was great. The shower room had the slight smell of wee.
- Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pauline (10/5): Fantastic hosts, location and property. - Property was very clean and comfortable for the two nights that we stayed there. The owners were very welcoming on arrival making sure that we knew where everything was located and nothing was too much trouble. Lovely private location and a 10min drive to the beach which our dog loved. An easy drive to Montrose for food supplies or takeaways, we will definitely be back and would recommend to anyone who wants a tranquil escape.
- Sri (9/5): Superb -
- Alison (9/5): Superb -
- Carol (10/5): Absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be doing a return visit - Anniston Bothy was a pleasure to stay in. It was spotlessly clean and had all the comforts you required for a short stay. We were there with our 2 grandchildren aged 7 and 5 and dog They loved the freedom of the green area and a big bonus was the small activity frame in the garden surrounding the bothy. Angus came to meet us when we arrived and was very helpful with any info about the area and places to go. The beds were very comfortable we all had a great nights sleep. Great shower and lovely toiletry products available too. We were close to both Montrose and Arbroath which have lots to do for the kids. Lunan Bay beach was a 5 minute drive away which was great for the kids and the dog. Decent parking and a little cafe on site too. We ate at Imries Bar and Grill in Lunan Bay which was very relaxed for kids and dogs, very reasonably priced too One tiny thing! The room in the mezzanine area was very hot, it could do with a fan.
- Nils (10/5): What a beautiful place! - A lovely bothy that has been very well refurbished by the owners. We had everything we needed and the hosts are really nice and helpful. We will definitely come again if we're in the area. Thank you Angus and Amy!
- Clare (9/5): Superb -
- Neil (9/5): relaxing - location was quiet, accommodation fully furnished, landlord is on land near by which was handy as had an issue with water temp but he came very quickly and resolved as cottage is eco friendly and modern.
Was wife birthday and even gave some flowers and a card.
highly recommended one comment is that I didnt notice how steep the stairs\ladder was to get in to the loft for the single beds although my daughter loved it. Picture not do it justice as is probably about 80 degree angle to climb up.
- Nicola (8/5): Very good - Amazing shower, comfortable bed and beach close by
- Charlie (8/5): It was great and Angus was very helpful - Just wanted an egg cup !
- Andres (10/5): A peaceful stay in a gorgeous location with helpful hosts - perfect! - Beautiful property, stylish and immaculately presented with everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Lovely location and walkable to the amazing beach at Lunan bay. Highly recommended! Nothing!
- Neil (9/5): Superb -
- Diane (9/5): Beautiful bothy for a great relaxing break - The bothy was in a beautiful setting; and was very nicely decorated. The beds were super comfortable and we slept well. I really liked that there was an electric car charger on site too. I wouldn't have liked to sleep upstairs, it was quite a steep ladder and not ideal for anyone having to get up and down to the bathroom during the night.
- Lily (10/5): Comfortable quiet relaxing stay. - Was a beautiful property, amazing hosts, very helpful.
Me and my family had an amazing time, will definitely return in the future. Slept so well. Also enjoyed our chicken friend who paid us a visit
- Christine (10/5): Short break on the east coast of Scotland - Really nice little cottage, perfect for a short break Everything was good
- Carrie (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful Bothy, spotlessly clean and comfortable. Loved the location and the nearby pond and river which was ideal for the kids and dogs.
- Trudi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lynn (10/5): Fantastic - Clean, fresh & comfortable. Nothing
- Brown (10/5): Fantastic - Hosts were very welcoming and we had an amazing time. You have privacy in a stunning, modern property. Brilliant for a couple. We brought our dog and they were awesome about that too The stairs to get upstairs were very steep. Could be easier to get up
- Louise (8/5): Very good -
- Julie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Charles (10/5): Exceptional -
- Naomi (10/5): We had a lovely stay here, would definitely recommended and will book again in the future, amy and angus have a beautifu -
- Mark (9/5): Great location and the bothy is immaculate inside. - The stairs to the top bedroom are very narrow and steep. This didn't bother me but could be difficult for someone who was elderly or infirm.
- Neal (10/5): Great Bothy , lovely location. - Fantastic place , clean and tidy , Angus and Amy were great very helpful.
Would definitely book the Anniston Bothy again .
We all had a great weekend
- Stephanie (9/5): Perfect cosy cottage - Very quiet location and private. Very modern and quirky. Hosts were exceptional and helpful. Everything you need is provided. Stairs took a bit of getting used to for the upper bedroom.
- Anne (9/5): Lovely base for visiting g family in the area - This is a lovely place, clean and comfortable Nothing not to like, it’s lovely
- Gillian (10/5): Gorgeous cottage in a lovely location - fabulous weekend had! - Gorgeous wee cottage, spotlessly clean and lovely hosts. We were in the area for a family wedding and it was the perfect base for us. Special shout out to Angus for making sure we were ok when we got a little bit lost finding it in the pitch black 🤣 thank you to Angus and Amy for being excellent hosts! There was nothing - we had a brilliant stay and would not hesitate to book again in the future.
- Alistair (10/5): Exceptional - Highly recommend. The bothy is great, it was clean, comfortable, and had all the facilities we needed. Really nice setting, with outdoor space, and a good location for visiting Lunan Bay and Arbroath.
- Fellows (9/5): Short and sweet. Really enjoyed being able to just walk to Corbie and Lunan Bay! - It was a very suitable location for what we wanted to do. We couldn't get the hob to work but as we weren't doing much cooking (oven only) it wasn't a problem and we would have asked Amy if we had needed to use it. Not a problem.
- Kirsteen (9/5): Peaceful relaxing and very well equipped - Really well modernised old mill cottage. Veey light and airy The mezzanine level is low at the sides but once you get used to it you learned to duck !
- Lindsay (8/5): Very good -
- Cheryl (10/5): Absolutely great place to stay with an obvious attention paid to even the little details. I could live there forever. - I'd rate it 10 out of 10. Angus and Amy were very friendly hosts; if you need any help ask. A very beautiful renovated Bothy not far from Lunan Bay. Modern decor - and a stunning feature being the patio doors which open completely onto the deck. It was all great. The loft has steep stairs if you have mobility issues, but the rest is very accessible. The Wi-Fi was a bit spotty in a couple areas but great overall!
- Gillian (10/5): Peaceful and relaxing with all we needed - Peaceful and everything we needed and more. Loved the personal message and thoughtfulness of the welcome, including the biscuits and milk!
- John (10/5): Outstanding time had at this fabulous Bothy, simply fantastic cannot wait to return. Amy and Angus were lovely hosts al - Modern, well decorated with fantastic hosts who were extremely friendly and who were there if we needed anything. Super dog friendly with our Sprocker loving every minute of his stay, particularly the long walks along the fabulous beach nearby. The facilities were all we could have asked for and the shower was superb. Very, very peaceful. Nothing at all.
- Melrose (8/5): Very good -
- Fiona (10/5): Beautiful, bijou Bothy in a tranquil rural setting. - Lovely cottage, well designed and very clean and comfortable. Great terrace and peaceful location. Close to a beautiful sandy beach.

- János (10/5): If you are looking for rest and relaxation, this is the place for you! - A very cozy and lovingly modern furnished holiday home in a wonderfully quiet location just 20 minutes' walk from the beach. The horse meadow is right next door, a couple of chickens also came to visit. The hosts Amy and Angus are super helpful, calmly approach them if something is missing.
- Emma (10/5): Excellent stay - I had a great birthday get away at the bothy, 👍 great location 👍 stunning facilities 👍 so peaceful 👍 plenty of nice places to eat in abroath too . The beach was amazing 👍 lovely welcoming owners too 👍
