“We booked this very last minute (literally the day before arriving!”

) due to an accident with our caravan. The host family were lovely and couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful! The house itself has everything you need, extremely clean and comfortable. The location is perfect and the surrounding area of the cottage is just blissfully peaceful. Even though we only live an hour away we will definitely be back at some point and recommend to friends and family for a quick weekend break.

Mrs Gavan May 2021

“We were disappointed that the pool wasn't open due to CV-19 and that we were not informed by Sykes beforehand.”

We got over that pretty quickly however and had a lovely stay. It was a great base for loads of places around. Hosts were lovely.

Mrs Green August 2020

“Cottage is well situated for access into Dundee It’s reasonably comfortable and lovely and warm with facilities that are acceptable There is no WiFi in this cottage.”

The WiFi is in the main house which you connect to and it’s very poor Not what you need with two teenagers .we had to buy them extra data which cost a lot For the price off this cottage I would have expected more and have expected WiFi actually in the cottage

Mrs Anderson October 2019

“We enjoyed a lovely 4 day break at Natusi Cottage, arriving late on our first night.”

Lynette was more than accomodating and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was as perfect as it could be. We would definately stay at the cottage again.

Mr Harkness December 2018

“I spent nearly £1600-00 on 4 nights at this cottage as I thought i would treat the family to something special , the reason for paying so much was my expectation was high due the cost of other cottages on your site .”

I feel completely ripped off as this cottage did not come up to the £400 per night experience expected . On arrival the owner told us there was no WI FI ...having 2 teenagers in the party wasn't the best start , the cottage was small and cramped and reminded me of a sauna as it was timber clad through out .not to a good standard either , we decided we would make the best of it but here are some of the faults we experienced... cuboards hadn't been cleaned ..fridge filthy ..microwave hadn't been cleaned ..sofa had something sticky on the back of it ..don't believe the place had been cleaned before change over ...no washing up liquid ...no tablets for the dish washer ..no tea coffee salt and pepper ...chewing gum stuck to the bottom of the basin in the sink ...all linen and towels were tired and grey in colour...cushions on sofa thread bare ...kettle needed descaled . The site has a picture of the cottage side on but what it doesn't show is the farm building with farm materials and machinery for you to look out at in the front when you exit the cottage The bottom bedroom was so small you had to push the bed back to get the door closed then there was a sharp bit on the bed that cut my brother in law When the pool was advertised it forgot to mention that it was situated in the owners house some 100 yards from the cottage ,you had to call the owner to make sure you could get in . On New Year's Day we phoned and were told that it was closed but she would open it up for us this was not mentioned when booking , we also run out of toilet paper and were given 1 roll between 6 of us , the whole experience was unprofessional to say the least . I am absolutely fizzing with the fact I paid so much for a place I wouldn't have paid more than £600-00 for now that I have been and experienced the place . I am now waiting to hear what feedback you give me before making my next move ...your website has helped in this deception and you should take some of the responsibility for this debacle . Yours ripped off Alistair Harkness

Mr Harrison August 2017

“Very well equipped accommodation, with delightful owners, nothing was to much trouble.”

Lovely, lovely place, we will definitely return one day, thank you.

- Mr Harrison, August 2017
Mrs Scanlan January 2017

“Friendly, welcoming and pleasant.”

We are thinking we might make this trip an annual event.

- Mrs Scanlan, January 2017
Mrs Cole October 2016

“The house and grounds were lovely.”

Pool jacuzzi and sauna were fantastic. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Cottage could be better equipped with utensils in the kitchen. Phone signal was really bad, having to go outside to try and get one. No WiFi or Internet access in cottage but could go upto the main house and get it. This caused problems when trying to sort out places to go and visit.

- Mrs Cole, October 2016
Ms Matthews August 2016

“We all had a lovely time.”

Gorgeous surroundings and I could relax when the dog was outside as the garden was very secure. We all enjoyed the lama and pony on the approach to the property. Hot tub and pool were glorious and the family very welcoming. 10 out of 10.

- Ms Matthews, August 2016
Mr Callegari August 2015

“We used the cottage as a base for fishing the South Esk River, it was in just the right location.”

It was well maintained, clean and the facilities were excellent.

- Mr Callegari, August 2015
Ms Glancy March 2015

“The family here are super very friendly.”

Use of the pool and sauna was terrific, really enjoyed this mini break. My girls had such a lovely time and my dog loved the enclosed garden. We will definitely return to this lovely place.

- Ms Glancy, March 2015
Mr Buckley October 2014

“Cleanliness!”

Very pleasant property, very spacious and we didn't need to go round cleaning things before we settled down. A good spot to get away from it all!

- Mr Buckley, October 2014
Mrs Brown October 2014

“Great location and friendly hosts.”

- Mrs Brown, October 2014

The fully enclosed garden allowed our dog to safely take in the fresh air and I would strongly recommend this cottage to others.

We would most certainly be going back and would recommend the property to friends.

A statue of Peter Pan can be found in the town.
