What guests are saying
Drummygar Main is a lovey well equipped house, clean & lovely & cosy with plenty of play area for the kids to play football & rounders plenty space in bedrooms
The house was excellently positioned in a beautiful, rural and agricultural area.
The extensive garden and decking had some lovely views and stunning sunsets. Plenty of room for parking several cars. Clean throughout. Very comfortable beds. Bathrooms and showers very good.Comfy chairs and settees in lounge. Large TV with good streaming facilities. Big kitchen. Always very warm with large Aga. Two issues our family found with the kitchen were our unfamiliarity with Aga cooking. And bench seating rather than individual chairs at the lovely, huge dining table. Got a wee bit uncomfortable with long family dinners. Didn't stop us enjoying ourselves. Kids in particular enjoyed the hot tub. Perfect temperature. All in all we had a great time at Drummygar and would recommend the house for a very enjoyable family holiday in that part of Angus.
Great house.
Nice and quiet in country setting but only a 15 minute drive to town. The horses on the adjacent property was a nice surprise. Beautiful animals and very friendly. Great place for families or golfers like us.
