The row of cottages are set up a few steps from a tiny village green with a small stream meandering past. Inside, the cottage has been tastefully furnished and retains some original features including arched doorways, high ceilings and wooden floors, with a cosy open fire in the living room leading through to a small kitchen/dining room. At the back the sunny sheltered patio slopes upward to a lovely lawn and is perfect for alfresco meals.

Renowned for its soft fruit, there are plenty of good cafes and restaurants nearby showcasing local produce, and a good range of shops locally and further afield in Dundee and Perth. Glamis Castle, the childhood home of H.M Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, and the Pictish Stone Museum are well worth a visit and the cottage is within half an hour of the Cairngorms National Park. The ski slopes at Glenshee are a short drive and Pitlochry is within easy reach. Golfers have plenty of courses to choose from including Rosemount and Carnoustie, or explore the clean sandy beaches strung out along the east coast. Beach 19 miles.

We had a lovely stay here, would definitely recommend. Some nice touches too with some food and wine left for us by the host.The cottage is warm and cosy and the garden is great. Very quiet location that feels remote but only a short drive away from much bigger towns.
Very cosy cottage. Good place for trips to Edinburgh, the highlands and the coast. The cottage made all dreams come true. All of the family enjoyed the time.
Nice place, Would recommend, needs to have Washing and Dryer looked at thou.

Beautiful traditional cottage, very comfortable and cosy in a quiet, peaceful village, I did hear church bells ringing on the Sunday morning which was lovely. The local area has nice countryside walks, there’s no shop or pub in the village- not a problem for us. There was a lovely welcome pack waiting for us and the locals are lovely. Blairgowrie is ideal for any shopping needs and not far away. We had a brilliant time
Wonderful start to our vacation in Scotland. Nice welcome basket with items to nourish us upon arrival. Everything very clean and everything we could possibly need. Appreciated the washer and dryer! Enjoyed walking the neighborhood. Nearby farm had great produce and delicious ice cream! 😋 (The Barrie Box) Nearby Dunkeld was a fun day trip.
Top locatie gezellig ingericht en voldoende informatie over omgeving. Het was de beste van onze 4 adressen in Schotland. we hadden hier wel langer dan 2 nachten willen blijven. Maar lag wat buitenaf.

Special touch with the welcome basket which included bacon, eggs, bread, milk, butter, tea, coffee, hot chocolate and a bottle of wine!
A wee gem!!

The only bad point about our break was having to leave ! From the minute we made the booking everything was 1st class. The cottage itself is superb. I have had many, many breaks away and this accommodation is the best I have stayed in. The owners have thought of everything and nothing is too much trouble. The welcome pack alone was a lovely touch. If you are looking for a break in Scotland with a good location to travel around and you need somewhere that accepts dogs.... then this is the place to go. I cant recommend it highly enough....if I could award 6 stars I would, it was that good. oh the open fire was pretty great too !! :-)

Lovely cottage which is decorated with much attention for detail and is situated in very quiet and beautiful countryside but yet near to a lot of local attractions. Excellent wifi. Very comfortable beds and bathrooms. Kitchen is a bit small for 4 persons and would benefit if one of the wooden benches would be replaced by 2 chairs or stools. Basic stock available. Lovely welcome pack. Easy parking in front of the cottage. Large garden. We felt very at home and can certainly recommend this cottage.
