Otter’s Holt- Circular Riverside Retreat + Hot Tub

Summary:

Otter’s Holt is a distinctive circular cottage set beside the River Lochay, with a living grass roof and uninterrupted views of the water. Designed for four, it offers two bedrooms, light-filled living space and a private outdoor hot tub positioned over the river. Quiet, private and architecturally striking, it suits guests seeking something genuinely different in a peaceful setting.



Short Term Let Licence Number: ST00133F

EPC Grade B



The Space:

Otter’s Holt is a two-bedroom circular cottage designed to sit naturally within its riverside surroundings. The curved structure and timber construction create a sense of calm throughout, with large windows drawing in light and framing views of the River Lochay.



Inside, the open-plan living and dining area forms the heart of the cottage, complemented by a well-equipped kitchen. The two bedrooms are arranged for comfort and privacy, making the space equally suitable for couples or small families. Underfloor heating runs throughout, providing consistent warmth in all seasons.



Outside, the private hot tub is set beside the river, offering a quiet place to relax and watch the water move past.



Guest Access:

Guests have exclusive use of the entire cottage, private outdoor area and hot tub. Dedicated parking is provided nearby. There are no shared facilities.



The Neighborhood:

Otter’s Holt is located at Bridge of Lochay on the edge of Killin, within a small collection of thoughtfully designed riverside cottages. The setting is quiet, yet close enough to walk into Killin for pubs, shops and local amenities.



The River Lochay runs directly beside the property, and the surrounding area provides easy access to walking routes, cycling and wider exploration of Highland Perthshire.



Getting Around:

A car is recommended for exploring the wider area, although Killin village amenities are within walking distance. Parking is provided at the property, with straightforward access from the A85 and A827.



Other Things to Note:

• Sleeps up to four guests

• No pets and no smoking

• The river runs close to the property; children should be supervised

• The hot tub is maintained by staff during your stay

• Wi-Fi is suitable for general use rather than high-bandwidth streaming



Interaction with Guests:

Otter’s Holt is self check-in. We respect guest privacy, but our local team is available should assistance be required during your stay.
The villa is heated and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.
