For the long summer evenings the barbecue offers a great excuse to eat in, although the town of Kirriemuir (just seven miles away) is full of local amenities such as restaurants, pubs and cafes.

Made of lovely red sandstone, the Strathmore valley town of Kirriemuir is often regarded as the gateway to the Angus Glens, some of Scotland's most unspoiled landscapes. JM Barrie - creator of the much-loved children's character, Peter Pan, and subject of the Johnny Depp film 'Finding Neverland', was born in the town and his house is now a museum looked after by the National Trust for Scotland. A statue of 'the boy who never grew up' can be found within Kirriemuir. However, Barrie is not the only literary connection to this charming little town. Nearby Glamis castle was the setting for Shakespeare's 'cursed' play, Macbeth. The historic Pictish Stones at Meigle and the Angus Glens are well worth visiting and offer spectacular views whilst hill walking.
Reviews
"The cottage was snug and warm on arrival with a bottle of wine cooling in the fridge. Under floor heating ensured our dogs dried quickly although to be fair, the weather was kind. The owner Lynette was extremely helpful and friendly and nothing was too much bother. The location is lovely and quiet within easy reach of a local town to get supplies. The swimming pool was an absolute bonus for my three children and again, we couldn't ask for more help from Lynette who let us just get on with it. I would definitely recommend it to friends and family without hesitation."
"We had a great weekend stay at the Kamba Cottage. The hosts were lovely and left us a bottle of fizz to enjoy for a friends 21st birthday. We used the pool, hot tub, sauna and enjoyed walks at the beach near by. It was peaceful and cosy and we would definitely go back! Thanks again."
"Our second stay at Kamba cottage and another great holiday. Myself, Wife, Sons 10 & 6 and Father and Step Mother came this time round and we found found it to be a fantastic base to explore the surrounding area from. The beauty of Kamba is that you also have the added bonus of swimming pool, sauna, hot tub, swings, trampoline and plenty of space for kids to ride on their bikes or scooters so you'll struggle to hear the dreaded "I'm borrrred". The surrounding area is ideal for day trips and you cant beat the stag in Forfar for great food. If you do go great places to visit are * The Stag (Forfar) * Glamis Castle * Dunnottar castle * Stonehaven * Johnshaven * Glen Cova * Glen Cova Hotel ( climbers bar ) * Luna beach (take a pic nic, windbreaker, change of clothes and your set for day.) Loads more places worth visiting, too many to mention......"
"Great getaway, quite (our phones had no signal apart from in the car - which was GREAT), very relaxing. Played lots of board games, watched DVD's, read books. The pool & hot tub were fantastic. Totally chilled experience, family couldn't be nicer. Definitely would recommend going if you want a chilled phone free break"
"We stayed for 7 days in winter time as family of 4 (kids 4 and 7) and enjoyed our stay.place was clean and tidy with heating controls in every room.kids loved sleeping upstairs with own bathroom etc.only used pool once which was nice,sauna nice but jacuzzi never warm enough.best days out were glenshee ski resort (1hr away).edinburgh zoo.castle ok but expensive.olympia swimming centre in dundee (best ive ever been to).plenty to visit in a car.we dined at nearby finavon hotel,drovers inn,dunachen stone and chapel bank in forfar which were all fantastic.make sure car is full with fuel as petrol garages are non existant in hillside.only annoying thing with cottage is heating pipes bang alot when heating on and spiral stairs need looking at as they are very creeky.all in all a great area to stay at though.many thanks owners."
"A lovely and well equipped cottage with underfloor heating . The indoor swimming pool, sauna and hot tub in the owners house was a great attraction. The owners were friendly and helpful. Perfect relaxing getaway. Booked again for next year."
"A well equipped & comfortable holiday house. The pool, sauna & hot tub were such a treat. We really enjoyed the whole experience, & the grand kids had great fun befriending the various animals around. We would certainly come again."
"We went in winter so there was a nice crisp layer of sparkly snow, the moon was full, adding to this there was the comfort of underfloor heating and all mod cons, including a indoor swimming pool which has lovely windows looking on to the garden. With it being central, there were lots of nice scenery and quaint villages to visit. Not far from the coast either. The family have a lama in an adjacent field and two ponies which we loved feeding them apples and carrotts. Perfect relaxing getaway. Lovely owners whom we hardly saw. 5 star. Kindest Reguards Lisa."
"The cottage is beautifully decorated and was spotlessly clean. Very well equiped with everything we needed for a break with two girls age 11 and 12 and our pet pug. The garden is completely secure so our dog could wander in and out. The swimming pool, hot tub and sauna in the owners house were open for us to use whenever we wanted and the owners were really friendly. Not many places to eat out but there is a large tesco in Forfar about 5 miles away so no problem with shoppping. We had lovely days out in Glamis, Kirriemuir (which was a good cycle ride from the cottage), shopping was good in Dundee and lovely deserted sandy beaches in Montrose and Carnoustie both of which have good childrens play areas as well. The cottage was really warm and cosy so even in winter it would be great. The beds were so comfy and upstairs there is a mezzanine Area which gives some separate private space ideal for teenagers The best thing according to our girls was the llama and two Shetland ponies in the grounds which they could pet and feed apples to - highly recommended."
