We felt very comfortable in Margaret's well-equipped basement apartment. Margret is a very attentive hostess. Due to the beautiful weather, we were able to enjoy the fantastic garden at the end of the day. Next time in Scotland, we'd love to stay here again.

We have been in many AirBnB accommodations in recent years, but we felt most at home with Margaret. The apartment was clean and cosy, the beds very good and cuddly. The apartment is huge and very well equipped, including the kitchen. If something was missing, Margaret helped us immediately, e.g. with a baking pan and baking powder. The garden is even more spectacular than in the photos - it can easily compete with the gardens of the surrounding castles. We enjoyed reading, eating or drinking coffee in the garden. In addition, Margret gave us fruit and vegetables from the garden, really great! In general, Margaret and the contact with her was almost the best part of the stay, it was great to get to know her. Montrose itself is nice and the beach is beautiful. The wildlife centre at Montrose Basin is highly recommended!

We felt like we were living in a regency-era novel. The garden was like a dream. Our host was responsive and incredibly supportive and helpful when we had to deal with a flat tire. Best Airbnb I've ever stayed at.
