Fittings and finish are all very modern and of a high standard. We had a very comfortable stay and an excellent location to access some of the best parts of Perthshire. Hoping we can get a chance to get back here again next year.

We loved the house and all the nice little touches, all of the appliances are such good quality and we would definitely stay again. The property wanted for nothing the owners had clearly put alot of thought into making sure it was just right.

We were 3 adults, one child and a dog and it was perfect for our stay. Its a great location being close to everywhere we like to visit. The living room area could be more comfortable the chairs/sofa weren't great for lounging after a day's walking. My son loved the coo decorations and all the added extras. The only downside to this stay was the access road to the property, it was extremely difficult to get up the hill from the road, the stones were burning tires, hitting the bottom of the car and skidding. I won't be surprised if there was damaged caused to the vehicle. We only took 1 car out everyday as I was too scared to go up and down the hill. We would stay again, if the hill was made accessible. Thanks for a lovely holiday.
