Overview
Property code: 86687

This quirky and unique former Post Office dating back to the 19th century is perfect for a family getaway, with raised balcony, hot tub and splendid loch and Munro views to enjoy.

Gaze out over the still waters of Loch Tay from this welcoming holiday home at Fearnan, about 10 miles from Aberfeldy. Set less than 100m from the banks of this enchanting Scottish lake, this Highland Perthshire holiday home sleeps 10 guests and also accommodates four of their canine companions. Perfect for an extended family escape, two families together or a group of friends, this property is ideal for a group seeking a quiet stay. Relax on the viewing deck of this five-bedroom retreat and lose yourselves in the views for hours on end. Loch Tay offers an excellent range of water sports including Cruising.   Venture 9 miles to the fringes of Tay Forest Park or 14 miles to the edge of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park.

Stroll in via the lobby to find the upside-down accommodation arrangement works well for those staying here. Discover you have three bedrooms downstairs: these include a double bedroom, with a TV, French doors onto an outside space and access to a Jack and Jill shower room with Hydro Spa shower (also accessed from the hall). There is also a double room, with en-suite shower room and WC, and a king-size. Also on this floor are a separate WC and utility room, with washing machine and tumble dryer. Venture up to the next level to find the family bathroom, a twin bedroom and a double. The lounge/diner is also here. This is where you can gather together after your exhilarating days out to unwind, chat and play games. Watch the Smart TV, with sound bar, or throw open the French doors on to the balcony so you can wander out with a cup of fresh coffee made in the machine in the kitchen and take in the vistas towards the loch. Take turns at whipping up delicious dinners in the kitchen with the fresh Scottish produce you have shopped for. Set the table and dine back through in the lounge/diner. Relax out on the balcony or in the courtyard garden as often as the weather permits. Sizzle supper on the BBQ and sit out round the fire pit until late in the evening. Find you have parking here for four cars.

Head into Kenmore (3.5 miles) to investigate all the different outdoor activities that are available in the area. Adventure companies are dotted throughout the village, offering everything from sailing and water-skiing to fishing and golfing. The picturesque village has a number of wonderful restaurants serving a wide range of local produce.

Tay Forest Park is a haven for walkers. The patchwork of forests across Highland Perthshire is home to a network of varied walking trails, offering unforgettable loch and mountain views. To get your bearings – and to experience panoramic views across Loch Tummel – journey to Queen’s View Visitor Centre (20 miles). There’s also a charming cafe here, too.

For walks in a contrasting landscape, head to Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve (9 miles). Here, you can climb to the summit of Ben Lawers, which is the highest mountain in the central Highlands. There are also a number of short nature trails in the area that are perfect for families and little explorers.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy house with a great view. The location was perfect, and the garden with BBQ and roof made cooking easy rain or shine. The hot tub was a highlight, though it takes time to heat up. Despite small rooms, they were very comfortable, with clean linens. Showers and bath were spotless with good water pressure. The well-Read moreequipped kitchen made cooking comfortable. Overall, it provided everything for a relaxing stay. Highly recommended! Hide

The Old Post Office was a delightful place to stay. The views are lovely, the location convenient to so much of what the Highlands has to offer and the accommodation flexible and comfortable. The hot tub was wonderful: so relaxing after long days in the mountains.
