You'll find Sacred Grounds Coffee Company in your welcome pack because we love to introduce you to our local food and drink companies who take such care to produce sustainable, high quality products.

Choose between regular or de-caff before your arrival and look forward to enjoying a special coffee, relaxing out on the patio, listening to birds singing.

If you are here on a Wednesday, you can even accompany us on our weekly pick up and see how it's roasted and packed.

You know all our bags are hand stamped before they leave the roastery right? We've done this since we opened in 2015 and love the way the bags look because of this little bit of extra love we add to every bag. The coffee inside is roasted with care and the bag is too. It's the small things! And, it goes without saying that every bag is fully compostable. Simply pop the empty bag in your food waste bin.

As a passionate believer in Shopping Local we are delighted to share this local competition with our November & December guests. We have some fantastic independent businesses and shops here in Arbroath and we are constantly surprised at what we can buy when we explore these "wee" shops.

Also give your own local businesses a visit this Christmas period and see if you can buy local, instead of using the large online retailers, you will be helping to support your own town's economy and local jobs.

You may have seen on the news over the weekend about the new short term let legislation coming into force in Scotland. As of today, all existing holiday lets must have applied for a licence from their council and provided evidence of all their safety certificates to them. This is so guests can be assured they are booking a well run & safe place.

We are delighted to be able to tell you that Wester Den and The Studio have both already been granted their licences (AN-01082F & AN-01084F) by Angus Council and have passed all the required standards & regulations.

Unfortunately we have seen thousands of holiday accommodations, throughout Scotland, also close their doors for good this weekend, due to various aspects of this new legislation including planning restrictions. Our thoughts are with these small business owners that been have shut down and wish them good luck with their new future ventures.

Now is a good time to book to secure your dates for 2024, ahead of the New Year rush. We are beginning to fill up for school holiday periods especially, but still have dates available throughout the year. You can even book up for next Christmas/New Year.

There are still a few limited dates available for short breaks in November & December this year too if you fancy a little change of scenery.

We only need a 10 % deposit (non-refundable) to secure your dates with the balance not due until 35 days before your holiday. You can also pay up your holiday too, by making flexible payments of your choosing.
