Development opportunity in a lovely elevated position with extensive views
Tenure: Freehold
Situation: Craig of Garvock is situated in an elevated position at the southern end of the Hill of Garvock with fabulous views out over the surrounding countryside and to Montrose, Scurdie Ness lighthouse and to the North Sea. The property is within convenient distance of the A90 which provides easy access to Aberdeen to the north and south to Dundee, Perth and Central Scotland. Both Aberdeen and Dundee are within commuting distance and provide all the services expected of major centres. The nearby town of Laurencekirk provides local shopping, together with a range of business services and leisure facilities, and secondary schooling. In addition Lathallan (Johnshaven) is a well known local private school. The nearest railway station is at Montrose, although there are plans to re-open the station in Laurenckirk. Aberdeen Airport provides a range of domestic and European flights and there is a direct service from Dundee to London City Airport. The area is well known for its wide range of outdoor pursuits. There are a number of well known golf courses in the area including Edzell with championship courses at Letham Grange (Arbroath), Carnoustie and Rosemount (Blairgowrie). Salmon fishing can be taken on the nearby North and South Esks, whilst the River Dee and Deeside are easily reached over the scenic Cairn O' Mount road (B974). Nearby beaches are found at Lunan Bay and at St Cyrus, which is a Nature Reserve. The Angus Glens offer some of the finest hill walking in Eastern Scotland, with ski-ing at Glenshee.
