We were in the Red Squirrel apartment. Comfortable, well decorated and calm. There is a big living room with a full kitchen and a nice bedroom. There was a welcome bag with enough to have our morning breakfast. …

We have visited twice, once with friends and once with family. Both visits were wonderful. Evelyn is an amazing host.The apartments have everything you need for a few days. We particularly appreciated the travel cots, high chairs, and baby gates at the stairs as we were travelling with two under two.The welcome basket was a lovely surprise upon arrival.It's easy to get to Dundee or St Andrews.

This was our third time staying at Sandford Country Cottages. The first few times we stayed in the Baillie Scott but this time we were in the larger Lady Bluebell apartment, mainly because we had our dog with us. …

We booked most of the cottages for our wedding. It was absolutely perfect. The cottages are so well looked after, spotlessly tidy and incredibly well equipped. We enjoyed use of the BBQ hut and gardens one evening which was a great way to have everyone get together. The cottages were a real highlight of our weekend and we couldn't have asked for anything more! Evelyn was the best hostess and went above and beyond. We will be visiting again!

We stayed in the coach house. The rooms were impeccable 👌 We had a lovely stay and couldn't wish for anything better. I would highly recommend renting the barbecue hut 🛖 during your stay. The location is great too, near dundee and in the middle of beautiful landscapes.
