Award Winning Ideal Rural Escape in Earn Valley 5 min from Perth

This traditional cottage has been beautifully restored to a very high standard; bright & stylishly furnished with an open plan kitchen/living area with underfloor heating. The open plan area comprises a well equipped kitchen with integrated appliances, comfortable dining and additional seating in the glass extension to catch the morning sun with a coffee from the Nespresso machine. The living area has comfortable seating, a flat screen TV and a well-stocked wood burning stove.

The bedrooms are both ensuite; the master having a roll top bath in the bathroom. A door from the twin room leads onto a patio with a cafe style table & chairs perfect for morning coffee. A separate outhouse is provided as a perfect wet kit boot room. There is a stainless steel sink, washing machine, tumble drier and overhead pulley for drying clothes.

In addition to two laid lawn areas to the front of the cottage there are two separate decking areas for al fresco dining and BBQs. Deck chairs are also provided to relax and enjoy the outdoors.

As part of our commitment to the environment we used to use refillable products from Scottish Fine Soaps in the bathrooms. We have replaced these with smaller single use bottles (any not used are not recycled to the next guests).

EPC Rating - C
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a fenced private yard.

Charming cottage just minutes from Perth. Soaps and shampoos in bathroom and crisp, clean linens and towels. We appreciated the slippers and housecoats and we enjoyed the welcome basket. The Kirkstyle Pub in nearby Dunning was fantastic as was Gloagburn Farm Market. Hope to return someday.

Amazing stone cottage

This cottage was warm and welcoming from the moment we unlocked the door. We stayed 4 nights but wished we had booked more. From the heated floors to the soaking tub and the beautiful walk to the river everything was 5 stars.

Fantastic property to relax and hide away from it all, but only 10 minutes west of Perth.

We had a fabulous time here, by stocking the fridge & switching off for 3 days. The property had everything we needed & we were well looked after before & on our arrival by the Lesley.

Mr

Earn River Cottage was our home away from home for 10 glorious days. The location is ideal for exploring the area. Nearby Gloagburn Farm Shop and Kirkstyle Inn for dining were just a few of our favourites. The cottage is very well appointed, and the welcome basket was a real treat. We will be returning very soon.

We were blown away

What a fantastic property. The house was spotless on our arrival and so well equipped. First impression was that it was a Show Home, both inside and out. The beds were very comfortable and the duvets were amazing. We had a great time exploring the local area and there was no need for any heating as the weather was lovely and warm. We would recommend this home to anyone. The Lees.

Lovely cottage in the countryside

Really nice cottage off the beaten track near Perth. We found it a great home base for our visits e.g. to Stirling, Edinburgh and Aberfeldy. The cottage is very well equipped - nothing we were missing. The hosts were very friendly and responsive as well. Definitely recommended.

Secret Hideaway

Fantastic 'away from it all' cottage. This cottage is hidden away in rural surroundings but a 5 minute drive from Perth City centre, making it a great base to explore Perthshire. It is beautifully decorated with extremely tasteful furnishings and fittings of a very high standard. It also has its very own private beach (pebble) on the river Earn. Highly recommend this cottage and will definitely be back.

Wonderful Relaxing Stay

We have just checked out of this cottage after enjoying a wonderful few days over New Year. The property is finished to a very high standard and is very cosy with underfloor heating as well as a log burner. There was a welcome hamper for us when we arrived, including some champagne, which was a nice touch. It's in a great location for access to the highlands. It was a shame to leave and we would love to come back some day.
