We loved our week in Glen Esk, it had almost everything we like about a week away. The sitting room didn't have enough seating for the 8 people the farmhouse sleeps and one settee and chair provided was very uncomfortable and not fit for purpose. Luckily for the main it was just us two, so we had the comfy couch. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms cosy. The kitchen needs improvement and could have done with a small telly, although it did have everything we needed. The front porch light did not work and there was insufficient outside lighting for taking our dog out at night. Be careful with the door on the log burner, the pin in the top hinge is not long enough and came out one night when we were stoking the fire. The walks in Glen Esk have amazing scenery and we saw Eagles and loads of Red Squirrels. Shops/restaurants are a good drive away in Edzell, not very convenient if you run out of milk. We know the area so we were prepared and took lots of supplies, there is a freezer with ample space. The farmhouse is a beautiful building with many original features and the garden is well kept, however there was no garden furniture/benches for sitting out. We'll be booking again in the not too distant future.
