Built in the late 19th century, this Dunkeld holiday cottage combines the ideal location with a vast range of activities on offer locally. The area is a paradise for walkers, with fantastic scenery from the doorstep, and a rich variety of wildlife.

For the thrill-seekers in the party, why not book an off road driving session at the Land Rover Scotland Experience, just 1.5 miles from the cottage? The towns of Dunkeld (6 miles), Blairgowrie (10 miles), Pitlochry (17 miles) and Perth (18 miles) are well worth a visit, as is the dramatic Loch Tay with excellent walking on the surrounding hills. A wonderful Scottish holiday home, with absolutely everything that you could wish for from an outdoor pursuits holiday.
