The peaceful rural location is wonderful for exploring this beautiful part of Perthshire. Keen walkers will enjoy the nearby Cateran Trail (2 miles away), named after the fearsome cattle thieves who raided the area hundreds of years ago. There are lots of cycle routes too which take in local sights, including towns, rivers, and lochs with stunning scenery along the way. Golfers will find plenty of places to play a round in the area, including the championship course in Blairgowrie, as well as Alyth and Strathmore (within 4 miles). The River Ericht, which runs nearby, is a good spot for fishing.

Perth (20 miles away) is a vibrant city with great shopping and a range of interesting and exciting museums, theatres, art galleries, and heritage sites to explore. The ski centre at Glenshee is within easy reach 17.5 miles from the bungalow where you can ski and snowboard on the slopes or book some lessons at the ski school if your skills are a little rusty.

Thrill seekers can also get their kicks indoor go karting at ScotKart Dundee 16 miles away or next door at Laser Combat where you and the kids can try your luck at indoor laser tag. More sedate but no less fun, why not have a go at woodland craft, wood carving and bushcraft 4.5 miles away at the Scottish Woodland Skills Centre.

Wonderfully cleaned, excellently equipped with all you could need. So, so comfortable. Like a home from home. Being located on the farm we were a good distance from the road and in a blissfully quiet environment. Owner Bob was so kind and friendly. A grat but discreet host. What more could you ask for? Wonderful.

This was a really lovely cottage in a perfect location for us. The cottage was spacious and very well equipped, the bed was fantastically comfy, I really wanted to bring it home with me. We wanted for nothing while we were there and found it ideal for exploring the area. I wish we'd stayed longer.

Cottage was perfect for us, our German Shepherd loved walking and running in the stubble fields. Owner and daughter friendly and welcoming, We enjoyed our time wandering about in the Glens and up to and beyond Glenshee. Dunkeld also a favourite. Blairgowrie is a friendly town and very clean and tidy. Good to come back to a warm and cosy cottage.
