Beautiful rural location
We had a wonderful family stay and everything we needed in the kitchen was included in the well-appointed, warm home. The views from the breakfast table are breath-taking!

Peaceful farmhouse
Our family of two adults and two children loved our stay at Shepherds Rest. The mountain views are beautiful, the beds were cozy and we had everything we needed from kitchen supplies to puzzles and toys. It was a perfect base for taking the Jacobite train!

Wow!
An beautiful property, amazing location and fantastic hosts! Stunning walks straight from the door. We had an amazing week, the dogs were permanently tired with all the walks and swimming. The property was one of the most well equipped we have stayed in. Will definitely return! Thoroughly relaxing. Thank you 😊
