The Chauffuer's cottage is a lovely cottage sleeping 6 (+zed bed) with three bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a separate WC. There is one double bedroom and two twin bedrooms which can be made into doubles on request. It is set in the heart of Kinblethmont Estate, 4 miles from Arbroath. It has everything you need when you are away from home, a big comfy sitting room with large digital TV, free wifi , a dishwasher and lots of useful kitchen equipment. There is plenty of hot water and heating from our bioboiler fuelled by woodchips from Kinblethmont estate. It is semidetached to the Studio next door and the two can be joined for larger groups of 10.
There is a terraced area outside for BBQ's etc a grassed area and lots of woodland paths, one of which takes you via 3 minute walk to the walled garden. The walled garden has proved very popular - it is a very large sunny, sheltered area with apple trees, play equipment for young children, table tennis, badminton, and a ball play area.
The Chauffeur's cottage backs on to Kinblethmont House but has its own private garden and terrace and driveway shared with the Studio.
Kinblethmont estate is in an area of Angus that tends to be much drier than other parts of Scotland and there is plenty to do on the estate in lovely weather - playing in the walled garden, walks and bird/ wildlife spotting? Our local town Arbroath is 5 miles way. As well as being very convenient for its late opening supermarkets it has an atmospheric harbour, some lovely restaurants, historic ruins and and excellent children's play park.
Our guests have often been amazed at all there is to do here - we have a taste of all that Scotland is famous for whithin an hour's drive. - beautiful hills, excellent golf courses, castles, beaches, and distilleries with historic Dundee with its visitor attractions only 1/2 hour away - no wonder many of them want to come back.
