Learn more about hotels in Montrose

In the charming town of Montrose, Scotland's rich history and modernity intertwine seamlessly. Montrose, a former royal burgh, rests pristinely between the North and South Esk rivers, forming a natural harbour that has catered to trade as far back as medieval times. Being a pivotal commercial port for the oil and gas industry, this town of approximately 12,000 inhabitants offers far more than captivating landscapes with its wealth of historical significance.

Steeped in history, Montrose has been a centre of international trade, with traces of Viking invasions in the 10th century, and periods of wealth and prosperity during the 15th century under the Lairds of Dun. While the town's major employer is GlaxoSmithKline, hundreds of visitors each year are drawn by other facets of the town, including the Montrose Basin - the UK's largest inland saltwater basin and nature reserve of international importance, and the 18th-century architectural marvel, the House of Dun.

When to visit Montrose

While Montrose is charming throughout the year, the most clement weather awaits you in July and August; though these months are also known for occasional rains. Despite this, the summer months are typically the busiest tourist season. If you prize serenity and wish to avoid large crowds, the months of January, February, March, November, and December, albeit chillier, serve as the perfect time for a quieter visit.

Regardless of the season you choose for your exploration, unforgettable experiences and fascinating tales await you, making your Scottish holiday a cherished memory. Let LycaFly assist you in securing your ideal accommodation, setting the stage for your adventure in Montrose.
