Activities
Fishing
A popular pastime in this area there are many great fishing spots to be
found.
At the River South Esk there are Salmon and Sea trout.
Golf
The surrounding area is a golfing paradise.
From St Andrew's in the south to Aberdeen in the north you will be spoilt
for choice. Montrose Links is a five minute drive away and is the fifth
oldest golf course in the world.
There are numerous courses in the area of St Andrews to make enquiries
regarding bookings.
Dolphins and Seals
Both seals and dolphins are frequent visitors to The Esk and
the dolphins are sometimes seen almost as far upstream as the Montrose
Basin.
Along with flocks of eider ducks and other sea birds the local ecology
is a delight for those drawn to the area for it's beauty.
It's probably best to look for the dolphins as the tide starts to go out
as it seems to provide feeding time for these amazing creatures.
Directions
Getting There by Car
From the south starting at Dundee.
From Dundee follow the A92 signs for Arbroath.

After Arbroath you pass through Marywell and past Inverkeilor.
As you approach Montrose you go down a hill and come to a bridge.
After the bridge take the third exit off the roundabout signed Ferryden.
Follow the road into the village and when the road narrows you will see
the Esk Hotel on your right and the Post Office on your left.
Carry on round the corner (not up the hill) and park in the public car
park.
At the top of the car park are some steps and to the left of the steps
is a path.
Take the path and look up and you should see the sign for the Roomies.
Go on to the black metal gate and the Roomies is through the gate on your
