This charming traditional cottage is ideal for families and friends looking for a break away together or to celebrate a special occasion. This spacious property sits in the beautiful countryside of Perthshire only 4 miles east of the charming and popular village of Dunkeld, and 16 miles north of Perth and south of Pitlochry. There is something for everyone to do here with the beautiful greens of Dunkeld & Birnam Golf Club just (4.5 miles) and The Scottish Wildlife Trusts – Loch of the Lowes (2 miles) is open all year round and home to ospreys, beaver, red squirrels, wildfowl, garden birds and deer. Dunkeld offers great shopping with artisan bakeries, specialty shops, and good selections of pubs and restaurants. If you are looking for a bit of some adrenaline-charged activity The Landrover Experience is (4.5 miles) and offers a fantastic adventure for all the family.

Step into the spacious hallway that invites you to decant your walking boots and shoes and hang up your outdoor jackets in the adjacent spacious utility room. Get ready to relax by the wood burner in the generous lounge where you can unwind together and catch a movie on the Smart TV.  For the cooks in the group, there is a well-equipped country-style kitchen/diner with a handy pantry and a dining table set into the bay window with window seating offering views out to the garden and surrounding countryside. Downstairs you'll find one super-king-size bedroom and an en-suite shower room and a separate WC. Upstairs there is a super-king-size bedroom with zip and link beds that can be made into twin beds and two single rooms, both with a trundle bed allowing for extra capacity for two extra guests if required. A family bathroom, one master super-king-size bedroom with zip and link beds that can be made into twin beds on request and an en-suite shower room with WC complete the accommodation.

Both front and rear gardens are enclosed, and the extensive rear garden is on a raised level with views across the surrounding countryside. Secure storage is available in the shed if taking your mountain or road bikes.

Superb cottage in a wonderfully rural spot, but a short distance to Dunkeld shops (and - importantly to us fishers - to the River Tay!). Lovely to wake up to pheasants, hares and ducks in the surrounding fields. We had a very happy stay and will certainly be keen to rebook in future years.
