The property

Balmashanner Farmhouse places you in a peaceful slice of the Angus countryside, just outside Forfar, where rolling fields and wide skies set the tone for a slower, more grounded kind of break.

It’s well suited to families or a group of friends who want space, comfort and a proper rural setting without feeling cut off from civilisation.

Inside, the house is laid out with practicality in mind.

There are three generous bedrooms: a king-size with its own en-suite featuring both a bath and a walk-in shower, another king-size room, and a twin.

A smart family shower room serves the rest of the household, making mornings far less chaotic.

The kitchen/diner is very much the heart of the home, equipped with a range cooker and centred around a woodburning stove, ideal for putting together hearty meals and sitting around together without any rush.

After a day out, the sitting room offers a relaxed retreat, helped along by a second woodburner that gives the place a lived-in, end-of-the-day warmth.

The large garden is a real bonus, giving children room to run around while the grown-ups enjoy a quiet drink or plan the next outing.

Off-road parking keeps things simple from the moment you arrive.

Forfar itself is within easy reach, offering everything from independent cafés to handy shops, plus the historic Forfar Loch and its walking routes.

The wider Angus countryside is on your doorstep too, with farmland trails, hill walks and centuries-old landmarks waiting to be explored.

Kirriemuir, easily reached by car, brings character in spades with its red sandstone buildings and connections to JM Barrie.

If you’re after something livelier, Dundee isn’t far and gives you museums, galleries and sweeping views along the waterfront.

With its calm setting and straightforward comforts, Balmashanner Farmhouse gives you a welcoming base for discovering a quiet but deeply rewarding corner of Scotland.

FORFAR

Kirriemuir 7.1 miles; Carnoustie 13.5 miles; Perth 35.3 miles.

The ancient town and former royal burgh of Forfar nestles in the beautiful rolling farmland of Angus on Scotland’s east coast. A traditional market town, Forfar holds a monthly farmers’ market, showcasing the best of the local agricultural produce. Forfar nestles close to the Angus Glens and the spectacular scenery of Strathmore. There is much to see and do in the surrounding area here. Regal Glamis Castle is nearby, the coastal town of Arbroath is only 15 miles away with its beaches and cliffs, while just 14 miles away is Carnoustie with its famous golf links. With the Cairngorms National Park to the north and Edinburgh less than two hours’ drive to the south, there is much to discover and enjoy in this beautiful area of Scotland.
