Dundee & Angus

What do you get when you combine the country's first UNESCO City of Design and a beautiful countryside which has helped bring us Aberdeen Angus beef, Arbroath Smokies and Peter Pan? Dundee & Angus - a beautiful, historic and vibrant region.

The east coast city is now well-known now thanks to the brilliant V&A, but did you know that things to do in Angus include watersports, hillwalking amongst the glens, historic houses, and delicious food and drink? Plan a break to Dundee and Angus today.

You can now travel short distances of around 5 miles to enjoy the outdoors and exercise in Scotland, to use public spaces for recreational purposes such as sitting to soak up the sun (where possible!), and to meet up with one other household in small numbers. Please remember to maintain physical distancing of 2 metres at all times, both indoors and outdoors.

The following activities are also now possible, following the above advice, during Phase 1: cycling, fishing, horse riding, golf, walking, hiking and watersports.
