The cottages is set up a few steps from a tiny village green with a small stream meandering past.

Beautiful traditional cottage, very comfortable and cosy in a quiet, peaceful village, I did hear church bells ringing on the Sunday morning which was lovely. The local area has nice countryside walks, there’s no shop or pub in the village- not a problem for us. There was a lovely welcome pack waiting for us and the locals are lovely. Blairgowrie is ideal for any shopping needs and not far away. We had a brilliant time

The only bad point about our break was having to leave ! From the minute we made the booking everything was 1st class. The cottage itself is superb. I have had many, many breaks away and this accommodation is the best I have stayed in. The owners have thought of everything and nothing is too much trouble. The welcome pack alone was a lovely touch. If you are looking for a break in Scotland with a good location to travel around and you need somewhere that accepts dogs.... then this is the place to go. I cant recommend it highly enough....if I could award 6 stars I would, it was that good. oh the open fire was pretty great too !! :-)

Lovely cottage which is decorated with much attention for detail and is situated in very quiet and beautiful countryside but yet near to a lot of local attractions. Excellent wifi. Very comfortable beds and bathrooms. Kitchen is a bit small for 4 persons and would benefit if one of the wooden benches would be replaced by 2 chairs or stools. Basic stock available. Lovely welcome pack. Easy parking in front of the cottage. Large garden. We felt very at home and can certainly recommend this cottage.
