About this cottage rental
Boasting views over the garden to the cliffs and sea, this detached family home is in a tranquil spot on the outskirts of St Cyrus.. All on the Ground Floor:
Living/dining room: Freeview Smart TV, DVD Player, DAB Radio, CD Player, Games Console, Woodburner, French Doors Leading To Garden

Welcome pack and doggy extras. . Enclosed lawned garden with sitting-out area and garden furniture. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking.. This is a birdwatcher’s paradise and is within an easy walk of the village shop, café and hotel. Furnished with care to maximise the light, inside this single-storey property there are full length picture windows in the bright living room and a well-equipped kitchen. The extensive garden with mature trees and expanse of lawn, is a wonderful sun trap to enjoy after a brisk walk along the beautiful sandy beach.
St Cyrus beach is nestled at the bottom of the cliff, which is accessed either by a steep walk from the local church just a few hundred yards away, or for the less adventurous, there is an easy drive down to the beach on the outskirts of the village at the nature reserve. A walk along the shoreline offers a good chance of spotting porpoises and other marine life in the clear waters. The spectacular cliffs and dunes are a National Nature Reserve and home to a variety of wildlife - peregrine falcons and fulmars are often spotted, as well as divers and other sea birds. Deer inhabit the wooded area at the top, and rare butterflies and plants can be found throughout the reserve. The owner has thoughtfully provided binoculars for your enjoyment. St Cyrus is between Montrose and Stonehaven, both bustling seaside towns with golf courses, shops and leisure centres, whilst inland the Angus Glens are easily reached for some excellent walks and spectacular scenery. Fishing is also available locally. Beach 300 yards. Shop, pub and restaurant ½ mile.
Suitable for up to 2 pets

Located right next to the cliff side which makes for a stunning view. Cottage was nice and comfy with everything I needed in it. I had an issue to begin with, trying to heat up the cottage as it was bitter cold. But once I managed to sort it out, the cottage was lovely and comfy. Bed was comfy. The big window in the living room was amazing as I could watch the sun rise and the sun set everyday. Was truly what I needed.The garden was huge which was great for my dog. She loved running around the garden with her ball. This was a major selling point for me as I have a very hyperactive labrador who needs the exercise and she took great advantage of that!I saw lots of wildlife around which was amazing to watch from the big window in the living room. Not much in the way of shops etc around other than a small Morrisons corner shop, next to the post office and no takeaways around so you would have to go into Montrose for those things. But it's not too far for a drive.There is a cliffside walk not too far from the cottage, albeit I never walked down the cliff to the beach as it was very steep, but there is a nice walk along the top of the cliff.I also went to the nature reserve which is about 5 minutes from the cottage and walked to the beach from there. Beach is huge and stunning to walk along.My only negative remarks about the cottage is the access through the gate from a single track road with a big car. I have a volvo xc40 which meant I really struggled to reverse my car into the driveway and my car was scratching off the bush and branches trying to turn into the drive. I eventually got in but it was a struggle. It put me off trying to get my car in and out such a small space. The only other thing I would say is it might be worth having a curtain to cover the front door and a blind in the bathroom. There is a draught from the door and windows which made the place cold and because I was staying on my own it was quite unsettling having windows uncovered that someone could look through them. However, that's just a minor thing. The views made up for the minor issues.The owner was very helpful and kind. She answered all my questions and was easy to contact if needed. She also left me some tunnocks teacakes and milk which was a great help because I forgot milk. All in all I would definitely stay here again!

The location is fantastic, stayed two nights for a short break. Bed was comfy, so was the livingroom furniture. The house was clean and stock with essentials. It was a bit cold in the house, but there was a wee heater to use.

Sweet Hope was the perfect holiday accommodation for my family in a fantastic setting. The bungalow has wonderful views out to sea; a quiet, sunny garden (with a fab washing line!), is within a few minutes walk of a National Nature Reserve & wonderful walks. The bungalow is spacious, clean, well equiped, practical for outdoors, warm and peaceful. Thank you. We hope to return.

We stayed for 4 nights and couldn’t get the radiator on in the hall. The owner came out but he couldn’t fix it. The ow era were very helpful. Other than that the house was lovely and well equipped. Beautiful large window in the lounge with views over Montrose. Great big garden which was good for our dog. The house is out in the back of beyond if that’s what you are looking for. Great relaxing holiday.
