We've had a fabulous week and the house was perfect. The kids, and the dog, loved the garden. Inside was lovely and cosy for the autumn evenings. Brian, Angeline, Joseph, Sean, and Anna.

The highest praise possible starting and ending with warm welcome from the host and polite departure conversation after 3 nights in luxury with everything we needed, provided and much appreciated extra provision of, for example, special coffee to use in the cafetiere which the host knew we'd be using daily. There was endless hot water and speedy, reliable wifi as well as quality TV watched from comfortable armchair/sofa. I could go on but the pictures on the website are absolutely realistic for people to judge for themselves!

Thanks for a lovely stay at this well situated and quiet cottage on the outskirts of Pitlochry. It is a fantastic base for exploring all that Pitlochry and the local area have to offer. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable and it was lovely to have the spacious garden to enjoy the sunshine and the wildlife in the adjoining woods. On lots of days we just walked straight from the cottage to enjoy the Pitlochry walking trails, the town and the Theatre.
