Price Match Guarantee

If you find a cheaper price anywhere online, we’ll refund you the difference.

Price Match Guarantee

If you find your online booking of this property through Sykes cheaper on another website and you meet the conditions below, let us know and we will pay you an amount equal to the difference in price.

Conditions:

The other offer that you could have booked on another website on the same day that you made your Sykes’ booking is identical to it – it is the same specific property, the same check-in and check-out dates, for the same number of guests and it has got the same, or better for guests, cancellation terms.

The other offer is cheaper than your Sykes’ booking when you ignore all optional extras on both and all vouchers, discount codes, gift cards, loyalty, reward or other type of membership or repeat business schemes and any generic promotion on the other offer.

Within 7 days of making your Sykes’ booking you have provided us with evidence of the other offer that is acceptable to Sykes (for example, a screenshot, print out or picture of the full details of the other offer from the point in the booking journey when all that’s left to do is pay) together with its cancellation terms.

This guarantee only applies to a property when you see it advertised on the property listing when you make your booking.

How to claim:

Send the evidence we’ve asked for above to pricematch@sykescottages.co.uk along with your booking reference.

We’ll check if it qualifies for our Price Match Guarantee.

If it does, we will pay you the relevant difference within 14 days. That’s it!

Doo'cot Wood Cottage is a stunning stone-built cottage resting near Forfar in Angus.

Sitting on the owner's farm boasting a hot tub, enclosed garden, and stunning elevated views towards the Angus Glens, this pet-friendly abode is perfect for couples or a small family with children.

Pull into the off-road parking area and take in your first glimpse of the attractive stone exterior, surrounded by open countryside and accompanied by the sound of birdsong drifting through the air.

Wander along the gravelled entrance and discover a choice of outdoor seating areas, from the rear decking with chairs positioned to make the most of the far-reaching views, to additional seating where you can settle down with a morning coffee or evening drink.

The enclosed garden provides a wonderful place for children and dogs to stretch their legs, while the hot tub invites you to sink into the bubbles and admire the spectacular scenery stretching towards the Angus Glens.

Step inside and into the bright open-plan living area, where large windows frame the surrounding landscape and a charming window seat offers the perfect perch for soaking up the views.

The kitchen is thoughtfully equipped for preparing everything from leisurely breakfasts to evening meals, with an electric oven, hob, microwave, fridge, freezer and slimline dishwasher helping to make mealtimes effortless.

Gather around the dining table to share plans for the days ahead before moving across to the inviting seating area.

Here, a woodburning stove brings added character to the space, creating a wonderful setting for unwinding with a favourite film on the Smart TV or catching up online using the WiFi.

Just off the living area, the handy utility and cloakroom adds further convenience, complete with a washing machine, basin and WC, ideal after days spent exploring the surrounding countryside.

When evening arrives, make your way to the spacious bedroom, where a striking four-poster double bed takes centre stage.

Wake each morning to views across the landscape from the bedroom windows before beginning your day with a refreshing shower in the walk-in enclosure or a leisurely soak in the elegant freestanding bath within the en-suite bathroom.

For everyday essentials, a shop and pub can be reached within a pleasant drive, while a nearby river offers opportunities for a scenic stroll through the local countryside.

A visit to Glamis Castle promises a captivating day out, where grand historic interiors, impressive landscaped gardens and centuries of Scottish history await exploration.

In nearby Kirriemuir, discover the Gateway to the Glens Museum, enjoy views over the town from the Camera Obscura and visit the famous Bon Scott Statue celebrating the AC/DC legend's connection to the area.

Alternatively, spend time in Carnoustie, where championship golf courses, a sweeping sandy beach and attractive coastal walks provide plenty to enjoy beside the North Sea.

Whether you're soaking in the hot tub beneath wide Angus skies, relaxing beside the woodburning stove, or exploring the glens, coastline and historic attractions nearby, Doo'cot Wood Cottage offers a memorable base for discovering this beautiful part of Scotland.
