Really enjoyed our stay. Lovely location. Pitlochry a really nice town and good for touring too.House is great and traditional with a good layout. Everything we needed was there. Being dog friendly was a bonus. Just a few tweaks, such as the toilet seat needs refitted as held on by tape; the small red sofa in the living room is uncomfortable due to the springs and the carpet in the dining area is very stained. (Perhaps an non carpet surface would be good there.)

Nice stay close to good walking trails. Location and parking was very convenient. Property was spacious inside. Property is very dated, with only 1 toilet role provided despite two toilets.
