The fertile Vale of Strathmore divides the Grampian Mountains from the Sidlaw Hills North of Dundee. Here, between Blairgowrie and Kirriemuir, is Yvonne Mallet's row of delightful cottages, Victorian workers houses joined together in a line overlooking an old walled garden. The two cottages on the left in the photograph are traditional farm cottages, now delightful ,comfortable self catering holiday rental cottages, each sleeping 2. They sit amid a sensational walled cottage garden, created by the owner, Yvonne Mallet, who is a noted garden designer.
Strathmore is most famous for its black Aberdeen Angus cattle, delicious raspberries, and Glamis Castle, ancestral home of the Queen Mother (open to the public). There are over 50 golf courses within as many miles, fishing, touring and walking - one of the loveliest Angus glens, Glen Clova, is only a few miles away. Dundee and Perth are about half an hour by car.
The walled garden is secure for children to play in and there is a barbeque and garden furniture. Guests at the cottages are very welcome to use the selection of herbs growing along with any surplus garden produce. All in all this a very is relaxed and friendly place to stay.
