Newtyle is a small village in rural Angus, sitting on the western edge of the Sidlaw Hills and overlooking the fertile farmland of Strathmore. Its elevated position gives pleasant views and easy access to hill walks, while remaining within easy commuting distance of Dundee, so it combines a quiet countryside feel with links to the city.
Historically the village is best known for its connection to the early Dundee and Newtyle railway, one of Scotland’s pioneering lines with rope-worked inclines, and the surrounding economy remains largely agricultural with a close-knit local community. Today Newtyle retains a mix of traditional rural life and modern commuting patterns, with local events and outdoor recreation centred on the hills and farmland around the village.
