Wonderful beaches at Tentsmuir, near St Andrews, and further up the coast at Carnoustie (home to the 2007 British Open), Montrose and Lunan Bay contrast with excellent walking in the Angus Glens and are all within easy reach of the property.

We loved our short break at the farm. It’s beautifully decorated, thoughtfully equipped and located in the most wonderful countryside. Dundee is only a short drive away for those who want to be closer to the city. We loved the quiet, the fantastic views and our dog was a big fan of the enclosed garden.

This was our 4th stay at Greenford Farm. Great rural location and the ideal place to relax and unwind. Love sitting reading in the sun room. Plenty to do in the area for all ages.Looking forward to a 5th visit.

A lovely comfortable cottage away from any main roads so very quiet and nature all around. The dogs had a wonderful time as they could run in the garden and with it being enclosed there was no worries of the dogs getting out. It is a perfect place if you need to get away from it all but Dundee shops not too far away. We will definitely be back.
