This delightfully remote charming cottage sits in a beautiful spot on the banks of pristine Loch Tummel, with uninterrupted views from both the house and the pretty grounds.
A welcome sanctuary for up to eight people and two dogs, this four-bedroom property in Pitlochry has plenty to write home about. Sat on the banks of Loch Tummel and hugged by thick blankets of trees, it provides an unrivalled spot to escape the status quo and immerse yourself in Mother Nature for a whirlwind short break or eagerly anticipated week of adventure. Ideal for those looking for some space and tranquillity but with access to a couple of pubs nearby (3.5 miles away), once you arrive you won’t ever want to leave.
Steeped in history, this Scottish hideaway certainly isn’t just a pretty face. As well as its attractive stone façade, gorgeous interiors await to welcome sightseers and explorers after a day’s escapades. Neatly combining a modern makeover with tasteful, authentic throwbacks, the lounge adopts the same welcoming feel that is paraded throughout the house. Boasting soothing tones with an eye-catching feature wall and wood burner, it as cosy in winter as it is in summer. Overlooked by the upstairs mezzanine, the open-plan kitchen/dining room has a double-height ceiling and is a wonderful place to congregate throughout the day. With all the useful appliances and gadgetry you could need, as well as a family-sized dining table and chairs, leisurely mornings and evenings in will be a real pleasure gathered around mugs of steaming tea and plates of Scottish shortbread. When day gives way to night, you can soak tired muscles in the bath before hopping into bed; your toes can look forward to blissful warmth before padding across the floor to bed. Featuring one king-size and one twin bedroom upstairs and two king-size bedrooms downstairs, each room is as comfortable and prettily furnished as the next.
While rainy days will be taken care of with the games room (available by prior arrangement) with table tennis, pool table, table football and darts; on sunny days, there is no better place to be than in the great outdoors. Surrounded by magical countryside, you can sit and while away the afternoons with a G&T while soaking in the breathtaking views of the loch or lace up your walking boots for a walk with your dogs. With a large, unenclosed garden merging with the shoreline, it is the ideal place for furry and little-toed explorers to play. Round off the day with a BBQ on the patio and watch out for the mighty silhouettes of regal stags framed by the setting sun.
