Snaefell
Snaefell is a comfortable, detached property which has been the owner’s family home for many years. Enjoying excellent views over Montrose, Montrose Basin, North Sea and open countryside, Snaefell is set on a quiet lane at the edge of the coastal village of St Cyrus. The private garden with shrubs and lawns has several seating areas providing wonderful suntraps to enjoy after a brisk walk along the beautiful sandy beach.
Perfect for either a family holiday or as a base for nature-lovers, Snaefell is quiet and rural, yet equidistant between Aberdeen and Dundee which are both approximately 50 minutes’ drive away. Within a short drive, you can experience the busy seaside town of Montrose which boasts a variety of amenities including two 18-hole golf courses and historical architecture, and to the north, the fishing villages of Inverbervie, Gourdoun and Stonehaven among others.
St Cyrus has a post office, hotel and local store, all of which are within a 5-minute walk. Situated at the north of a large basin, the area is home to many wading birds and seasonal visitors throughout the year. St Cyrus’ beach is a renowned National Nature Reserve with wide sandy spaces, rock pools and opportunities to spot whales, dolphins, seals and otters.
St Cyrus is part of the area historically known as The Howe of the Mearns, a large valley stretching from the base of the Grampian Mountains to the North Sea. It is rich in history and folklore, as displayed at Grassic Gibbon Centre in Laurencekirk, with many historic properties to visit including Edzell Castle and Gardens, Arbuthnott House and Dunottar Castle. There’s superb walking along the cliffs to Inverbervie, several forest trails and legendary waterfalls to discover. There are several excellent golf clubs within a short drive, as well as a nmber of nearby distilleries and breweries offering a distinctive taste of the area.
Laurencekirk, 7 miles away, has a wide range of amenities from supermarkets and butchers to pubs, bakers and eateries. Montrose, with its historical architecture, is uniquely set on a large tidal lagoon. Dundee, only 40 miles away, is the only UNESCO City of Design in the UK and is home to the V and A Museum, the RRS Discovery and the DC Thomson comic empire. Beach 1 mile. Shop ½ mile, pub and restaurant ¾ mile.
