Holiday Apartment Arbroath Angus
My family and I really enjoyed our time at the Nestings. We enjoyed sitting in the bay windows of the upper flat and watching the activity in the marina. We also enjoyed taking walks along the harbor wall, as well as walking out to the cliffs or along past the football field to the beach. We were already familiar with the Brewhouse and we tried the new restaurant by the harbor. We really enjoyed the local flavor of the Commercial Inn. We found the accommodation to be very comfortable and were very impressed with the modern efficiency of the place. We would certainly consider staying at the Nestings again or would recommend it to others.
Thank you, Heather LaFleur USA Picture by Keith White guest at the Nestings

Just to thank you for the use of your delightful apartment in Perth. We absolutely loved it and had a superb holiday. As you had promised there was so much to do in Perth and the surrounding area, we feel we only just scratched the surface. It was particularly nice to be able to walk into the town for a meal in the evenings and to have such a selection of restaurants. We certainly hope to return and may well try to organise another Scottish holiday around our daughter's graduation next summer.

Kind regards,

Cynthia Burton

Holiday Cottage Scotland The Nestings Arbroath

Thank you – we had a wonderful time. In fact your email has prompted us to book again for next year. We enjoyed the two weeks so much we were thinking of taking our whole holiday break at the Nestings (Puffin), August 2008 if available – that is three weeks.

In terms of things to do/see the following are worth doing:

St Andrews (steeped in history and a great kite flying beach)

Carnoustie (the nearest large sandy beach)

But ‘n’ Ben restaurant in Auchmithie (just outside Arbroath) has wonderful food, but need to book well in advance.

Towns of Dundee and Montrose are worth a visit

Glamis castle is a great day out

Village hopping (Elie, St Monans, Pittenween and Anstruther) a nice coastal drive.

Anstruther fish restaurant. Again don’t go too late otherwise the queues extend along the road.

The Cliff top walks on Seaton Cliffs afford amazing views of the coastline.

By the way, Pauline the housekeeper was most helpful,

Kind regards,

Keith

We have just left on Saturday after two of the most enjoyable August weeks holiday we have ever had at Castaway Cottage, Fife. This was our 2nd visit to the cottage and very relaxing.

The only improvement that I would recommend for a family, would be a bigger pedal bin.

Thank you so much and we hope to see you again next year!
