Dundee is known as 'the City of Discovery', famous for its jute, jam, and journalism. The city is ideally situated on Scotland's northeast coast, close to lots of lovely sandy beaches, golf courses and of course, it's just a stone's throw from the great Angus glens, which offer miles of unspoiled Scottish countryside to explore.
Angus is rich in agriculture, with many farms specialising in growing soft fruit, vegetables, grain and potatoes, as well as raising beef and lamb which is enjoyed throughout the UK and beyond.
As the Scottish Borders is a large region, there is a wide variety of agritourism activities available, from unique accommodation to farm tours and farm shops. Going Rural is an incredibly rewarding way to experience the countryside and learn about the heritage of the region.
If you want to learn about animals, consider booking a Highland Cow or Alpaca experience. Looking for something unique? Explore various accommodation options, including a real-life treehouse, tiny homes, and beautifully presented farm steadings. Also, don’t forget to visit some of the many farm shops and cafes - there’s something special about eating and buying local, the quality and freshness is unmatched.
