  • Perfect rural sanctuary overlooking the spectacular Perthshire countryside
  • Ideal for walkers and cyclists with countryside walks from your doorstep
  • Relax overlooking the pond where deer and squirrel often visit
Property code: CA361

This delightful cottage is located in Perthshire and affords spectacular views across the rolling countryside. This is the perfect getaway for nature lovers or those looking for a romantic retreat.

Deep in the rolling Perthshire countryside, this sweet little cottage is just the place for a couple looking to get away from it all for a while. Surrounded by beautiful views as far as the eye can see, it’s a special spot indeed.

The single-storey cottage can be rented alongside the neighbouring property which sleeps up to 10, making it a great option for older members, or perhaps couples with young children who need a little private space from the family gathering.

Small families or travelling companions can make use of the two chair-beds in the sitting room providing more sleeping options, but we’d say the space inside this cute holiday home is best suited for two. Inside, the cottage is light and bright as a result of a modern refurbishment, with a fresh yet cosy feeling throughout. The sitting room with its wood burner is exactly where you want to curl up with a good book after a long day outside exploring, after leaving your coats and boots outside in the entrance hall. Enjoy a hearty breakfast at the table in the kitchen and watch the ducks on the pretty pond, or gaze out across the fields and trees to the distant mountains. With a family-size fridge/freezer you can stock up for the whole stay and avoid food-shopping stresses, and there’s an electric oven/hob plus a microwave and useful washer/dryer too. The double bedroom has a perfect country cottage style with high-level windows framed by floral curtains, while the bathroom has a shower over the bath.  Venturing outside there is a small pond opposite where you are likely to spot the local wildlife including many species of birds, the rare red squirrel and even deer.  An electric car charging point is also available for use.

The cottage’s rural location means there are ample walks from the doorstep, and the bonus is you can walk as far – or as near as you want. Stroll along forest tracks, country lanes and beside lochs, all within easy reach of the house, or hop in the car to Glenshee, 14 miles away to bag a few of the many local Munros, such as Cairnwell, Beinn Lutharn Mhor and Glas Maol. Glenshee is also home to one of the country’s biggest ski resorts, with a wide range of runs catering for all levels of skier and snowboarder.

Take a day trip to Blairgowrie, 13 miles away, and sample some of the delicious local produce in the many cafes and restaurants, from fresh strawberries and raspberries to mouth-watering ice creams and baked goodies, then have a wander in some of the stunning bluebell woods nearby.

Pitlochry, with its fascinating visitor centre on the dam, is 18 miles from the house, and after watching the salmon jumping the ladder, don’t miss a visit to nearby Edradour. Dating back to 1825, this charming little distillery is one of the country’s smallest and the last stronghold of handmade single malts. Watch the whisky in production in this pretty village-style setting and best of all, enjoy a wee dram too.

This cottage is cosy and attractively furnished throughout. The over-bath shower has great pressure and works well. Look out for VERY hot water in the taps.

Had a very pleasant stay, and we enjoyed seeing the ducks and chickens every morning and evening. The cottage has all kitchen appliances you could need including a washer dryer for those needing it. The heating is very good but there is a wood burning fire, with logs and fire lighters provided, although I would recommend getting some kindling wood Read morefrom from a local supermarket to get getting the fire going fully.

The cottage is ideally placed for easy access to the hills, and it was lovely to watch red squirrels, deer, chickens, ducks and geese from the living room. It is part of a working farm so don't expect complete solitude and a few tweaks would have made it perfect (matches for the fire, for example!) but it was a good base for a few days of escapism.Read more Be sure to take basic essentials like milk, as if you arrive after 5pm the nearest shop is a 30 minute drive away.

This is a lovely little comfortable cottage in a beautiful location. It was very cosy with great heating, should it be needed, which would be more than a match for cold winter days.

Lovely cottage in a remote location with beautiful views to the duck pond and hills beyond. Good size for 2 with nice large bedroom and very comfortable bed. The cottage is ideal for exploring the area around Glen Shee, Pitlochry, Balmoral, etc but equally nice just to enjoy the peace and quiet at the cottage and watching the local wildlife.
