A home away from home
Jennifer made sure everything was perfect for our stay. She had a folder with all the places to visit organized nicely. The property was clean and smelled great. We recommend this property for a relaxing time away from the city, close to restaurants and events.

Great place to stay
Great host, Jennifer met us when we arrived, which was lovely. The cottage was super clean and is well equipped. We have 2 young boys that loved playing in the garden and on the tyre swing. Parking was great as you have your own spaces. Great location for us as we were visiting family. We'll definitely be back.

Went to stay with my mum, sis and sis in law just for some time out. The cottage had everything we needed and was so clean and tidy. We could not fault Jennifer with keeping in touch in the runnup to our visit. I cannot say anythin negative about our visit or the cottage. We are definitely planning to go back.

Quiet holiday
I spent at week at this bungalow with a friend for a quiet holiday. The bungalow is situated outside the village of Longforgan in a rural location although not far from the A90 so there was some traffic noise but not too intrusive. There is a garden with a table and four chairs. It was very hot and sunny the day we arrived so we thought it would benefit from an umbrella but there didn’t seem to be one and for the rest of the week, although the weather was reasonable, we didn’t really need one. The bungalow is equipped for four people but there is no dishwasher which some people might miss. The hot water takes a long time to get to the taps but there was information about this and neither shower worked very well. The en-suite shower room is quite small. However, overall, we enjoyed our stay at Strawberrybank. There is easy access via the A90 to places of interest such as Dundee, St Andrews and places along the NE coast. We particularly liked Broughty Ferry where we had an excellent lunch on our last day at Sol y Sombra. Otherwise, we were unimpressed by the food available in local pubs but Dundee has a lot of eateries and is only about 5 miles away where there are also supermarkets.

Great vacation home in Longforgan
We really enjoyed our 3 day stay at Strawberrybank in Longforgan. Great location for our visit to Auchterhouse. We could walk to Longforgan village for dinner. The cottage was well-equipped and super clean. We loved the private yard. Jennifer was a great hostess. I would highly recommend this vacation rental.

Lovely quiet cottage
Perfect cottage for a family break. Ideally located for visits to nearby cities and coastal villages. Everything you could need inside, and a pretty garden outside. Lots of local information in the cottage and easy communication with Jennifer, the owner, on booking and arrival made the whole break stress free.

Perfect week away!
We stayed at this cottage for a week and it was perfect! Jennifer was a wonderful host and couldn’t have been more helpful! We forgot our charger for the baby monitor and she was able to lend us one. House was very clean and felt very safe during the pandemic. The house is a 5 min drive from the Main Street and 15 min drive from the V&A and 40 mins to St. Andrews. Loads of options for day trips to local towns, beaches and play parks! Would highly recommend!

Perfect home from home, lovely host
Strawberry Bank was a lovely, well maintained holiday home with a friendly and helpful host. It has a great location for day trips to five and the surrounding area. We travelled with our 2 year old toddler and found everything to be very family friendly and accommodating, especially the mostly enclosed garden and the big lounge area.
