There are lots of other dog walking spots including the North Esk River which is less than a 5 minute walk away from the apartment. Here you can also walk across the 'Shakin’ Brig', a 100 year old suspension bridge. The village is also known for the Rocks of Solitude walk that is accessed through a blue door approx. a mile out of the village.

Cosy place with a great location
We had a great long weekend in Oct/Nov. The village is fantastic with a traditional butcher, farm shop and amazing cafe, all on a lovely high street. A wonderful park across the road which the dog loved. Lots of amazing walks nearby. The flat was cosy and there were some lovely treats on arrival. Great for dog owners too.

New Year stay
Super flat in a lovely, perfect location for town amenities and for dogs. Flat was very well equipped with modcons including Wifi and Netflix. For some reason I could not get free view on the TV so in between Netflix films I was watching NBNews and AfricanNews! Really recommend this property for a holiday in Edzell.

stay in Edzell
The flat was easy to find and the instructions to get in were straightforward and easy to follow. The flat was clean, tidy, well maintained and well-equipped. There was a welcome basket, and treats for our dog, which was a lovely gesture. We had a great few days there and would highly recommend it.

Lovely wee place
Helpful owners. Beautifully presented. Obviously newly refurbished. A great base for us for a few days. Food in Panmure Arms, over the road, recommended, as is the Glenesk Hotel, five minutes walk away. Edzell is gorgeous. Take a walk down to the Shakin Brig, beautiful.
