Description

Forfar 3.7 miles.

Bankhead of Lour Bungalow is a wonderful abode immersed in glorious Scottish countryside, in the hamlet of Lour.

Set just a few miles from the amenities of Forfar, this single-storey dwelling invites a family of four and their canine companion for a relaxing break to Scotland’s east coast.

After a day of rambling in the Scottish outdoors, look forward to putting your feet up in the sitting room, complete with two plush sofas, a woodburning stove, and a Smart TV, creating a lovely setup to enjoy movie nights.

Wander into the kitchen, equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, and fridge/freezer to help prepare meals, whilst the washing machine comes in handy for your laundry needs.

Gather at the dining table, and pop open a bottle of bubbly to celebrate this Scottish escape.

Head outdoors and appreciate the fresh air whilst your pooch stretches their legs on the lawn.

When it comes to sleep, a double and twin bedroom awaits, serviced by a gleaming shower room.

Find your closest amenities in the town of Forfar, boasting a choice of shops, supermarkets, pubs, cafés, and restaurants, plus the monthly farmer’s market gives you a chance to source some fine agricultural produce.

Keen golfers can head ten miles to Carnoustie and tee off at the Carnoustie Golf Links Course that often hosts the Open Championship!

Leisurely strolls around the RSPB Scotland Loch of Kinnordy are recommended, whilst further afield, the attractive old harbour town of Arbroath offers long sandy beaches and stunning sandstone cliffs.

Continue boxing off this part of Scotland with a trip North to the Cairngorms National Park, home to a picturesque range of lochs, moorland, and mountain landscapes.

The capital city of Edinburgh can be found to the South; a bustling hub with top attractions worth adding to the itinerary.

Escape to Bankhead of Lour Bungalow for a relaxing break, whatever time of year.

We arrived mid afternoon on a cold day during Storm Austen.

The radiators were only slightly warm and soon became cold. My husband eventually managed to get them on again but it was not immediately obvious how to do this. We were looking forward to having a roaring fire, but there were no kindling or firelighters, although there were plenty of logs. We managed to scrape some bark off to get a fire started. I left a voicemail message with Kerr and he did deliver some kindling and firelighters - although he didn't call at the door, he just sent me a text to say he'd left it in the log shed. Perhaps if he'd called in he could have helped with the central heating. All together not a good beginning. There was a lack of cutlery - a party of four would have struggled. We would have liked to move the armchair around to face the tv, but it was too heavy. The cottage was clean, but we kept finding clumps of dog hair, possibly floating out from under the furniture, where it would be difficult to vacuum, as the settees & armchair were very close to the floor and very heavy. The double room didn't smell very nice (possibly dog smell), so we slept in the twin room. The dining room smelt damp, and some of the chair covers were badly stained, but we had to eat there as there was no dining table in the sitting room. We were lucky to get the cottage at a discounted rate, booking only a couple of days before, but due to the above we would not have been happy to pay the full price. On the plus side, the shower room was nice and modern and the shower itself was excellent. The location was also excellent, private and quiet, very rural.

Great stay at Bankhead, the garden is super secure which our Jack Russell absolutely loved.

Very peaceful with fantastic views, but close enough to Forfar for supplies.
