Glen Isla Reviews

Catherine
Fabulous luxury stay with private pool featuring panoramic views. Dog friendly and fantastic freedom for our furry companion, he enjoyed going straight out of bedroom bifold doors into the rolling countryside! We will be back!
Lynsey
Just returned from a 5 night stay in Glen Isla. We had a fantastic time. The accommodation is beautiful throughout, really well equipped and with views that are postcard worthy. My 2 boys loved the play equipment and the private use of the pool and gym is fantastic. The highland cows greeting us each morning was great too. Location is isolated whicRead moreh made it lovely and peaceful but need a car to get to the nearest shops etc. Hide
David
We had a fabulous time. The flats were spacious and very well equipped. The view was idyllic. The pool and tennis courts were a great bonus and much appreciated by our teenage children.
Stephen
Fantastic cottages, very well equipped, very clean and extremely spacious, amazing views. Shower rooms are much better than we have at home! On top of that is the pool - which is large and great for kids, and we could book private pool times. Small shop on site as well. Remote(ish) location suited us and Forfar has most shops you need about 6 milesRead more away. Hide
Paul Andrew
Superb cottage and location. The pool and gym are a real bonus.
Victoria
The property, and its surroundings were beautiful and so well kept, you can tell the whole estate is well looked after. We had the best week and will go back in a heart beat, the pool was amazing and the fact you book a private slot makes you feel like it's all yours! Can't fault this place 1 bit, thank you for an amazing stay.
Edgars
Fantastic cottage in a nice quiet place. Wonderfully green views of the surrounding countryside. Everything we needed was provided. It was a very nice and enjoyable 4 day break. Would highly recommend.­­­­­

Brechin Castle Centre - DD9 6RL
about 3 Miles

So much more than a garden centre this place is ideal for a fun family day out in Angus. The garden centre stocks a huge range of plants, outdoor furniture and gardening equipment and also has a café serving tasty home made meals, cakes and snacks. The site has a large outdoor play area for children an ornamental pond and country park to explore. Halloween and Bonfire night's events are coming up soon. The annual Fireworks Display is really spectacular.
