Sampled the Sunday high tea menu with friends.The food was excellent and remember no frozen chips here -there hand cut.Plenty of top ups of tea or coffee with lovely cakes to finish with.This experience topped with friendly and professional staff met my groups needs and expectations. I would recommend this eating house without hesitation. We will certainly return again.👏😃 .

Just back from my hen weekend. Me and 38 of my family and friends stayed in the Forbes of Kingennie North and South Court lodges over the Friday and the Saturday night. The place exceeded my expectations, which were already high to begin with. The lodges were immaculate and every bedroom contained 2 single beds and a beautiful modern en-suite.... More

It is a lovely site, convenient for Dundee, yet out of the city. The staff are exceptionally friendly and it seemed that they genuinely tried to address the problems we experienced. However the problems were mostly of the resort's own making - albeit not caused by the staff. The really big issue for us was the fact that a number... More
