Little Gannochy, once the Factor's office for Gannochy Estate, is a delightful cottage in an idyllic setting a few seconds walk to the banks of the North Esk. A bright spacious sitting room with open fire has double doors leading through to the dining room, which in turn leads to the large fully equipped kitchen. An additional cosy TV room is ideal for children or adults needing a spot of down time, whilst a fabulous sun room is perfect for those chillier days and leads out to the patio area and the garden beyond. An office, rod room and laundry room provides the necessary space to keep up with everyday life, whilst upstairs the three comfortable bedrooms can all be twin or super-king double rooms and two have an en-suite shower rooms and the third has a private bathroom.
Outside is the most exquisite two acre walled garden complete with summerhouse, pond, extensive lawns and glorious herbaceous borders and shrubs. Completely secluded, guests can stroll up and down paths edged with box hedges, sit and enjoy the sun and bird song, have a game of tennis or literally take time to stop and smell the roses.
This area of Scotland is an ideal place for a perfect holiday and is less than 2 hours from all of Scotland's major airports. Located at the foot of the Angus Glens, with the North Esk River on the door step, and with the rugged Angus coast line less than a half hour drive, there are many opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. For those with an interest in nature and wild life, there is the Montrose Basin Nature Reserve, which provides the perfect habitat for many migrant and resident species, or guests can head to the hills and tackle some of the ten nearby Munros and catch a glimpse of deer or grouse. Golfers can not only play the wonderful Edzell course but can choose from many picturesque and challenging courses including the world famous championship course at Carnoustie which is only a 45 minute drive. The central location of Edzell makes it a perfect touring base with the Castle Trail of Aberdeenshire, the Cairngorm National park and the pretty fishing towns of Angus and Kincardinshire all within easy reach.
