Ivy Cottage is lovely! Aberfeldy is a fantastic town with good restaurants; it was great to be able to walk to dinner after a day of sightseeing. The cottage is extremely comfortable and Anna was very easy to contact and a wonderful host.

This quaint and cozy cottage was an excellent place to explore Aberfeldy and surrounding areas! Not far from St Andrews, Pitlochry, Dunkeld, the Cairngorms National Park and the House of Bruar- all of which we visited. So nice to come back to Ivy Cottage at night to shoot a few games of pool and watch movies as a family. Plenty of room for 4 adults and we had everything we needed (except shampoo and conditioner.) One caution - the stairs in the house are steep and narrow so take it slow going up and down. They had automatic stair lights which helped navigate at night. The treats supplied (Scotch Whiskey too) as a welcoming gift were appreciated! Communication with Anna was excellent!

Ivy Cottage is absolutely perfect!
Absolutely fantastic experience at Ivy Cottage. Anna has the cottage full of personal touches and thoughtful treats and amenities for guests. It’s even better than advertised. Easy walking to Dewars Distillery (worth the visit even if you’re not a Scotch whisky drinker - take advantage of the discount she offers), the Birks o’ Aberfeldy and all of the cafes and shops. She is very responsive to questions or concerns which made the overall experience even better. One of the best VRBO stays we’ve ever had…I highly recommend Ivy Cottage and can’t wait for my next trip to Aberfeldy - I already know where we’re staying. Thank you Anna!

Lovely quiet cottage in Aberfeldy
This cottage was great - comfortable kitchen/dining room which was well equipped, plenty of seating in the living room, a very welcome pool table in the conservatory and lovely garden with decking and outdoor seating. Upstairs there is space for 5 in 3 rooms, one with a nice ensuite. Great location for exploring the delight of the highlands.

Wonderful stay in Aberfeldy!
When a huge storm in the area forced our original plan to change, the Ivy Cottage and host Anna were there for us! This home has it all. We cooked two delicious full meals in the well equipped kitchen. The washing machine was handy as well. The bedrooms were so comfortable and everything was so tidy and neat. The walk to “town” is only 10 minutes and I can safely recommend the shopping and Three Lemons restaurant. What a great find!
