Excellent in every way!
The very charming Church Front in Montrose is a fantastic place - it's quirky and homely at the same time. Great location close to the Town Centre and its cafes, pubs and restaurants. And ideally located as a base to look around the area. We hope to revisit as we had such a lovely stay!
