About this property
Spend your holiday relaxing in the private hot tub with a glass of wine in hand, whilst taking in the breathtaking views that surround.. Escape to this splendid detached barn conversion in rural Perthshire, which is just a short drive from Auchterarder with its 1½-mile long high street lined with a splendid selection of eateries and bespoke shopping. Woodend Farm Barn nestles close to the owner’s home on Woodend Farm, now a 10-acre smallholding where Highland cattle and sheep graze. It was built well before the railway line, which is spanned by two beautiful bridges on the edge of the farm garden.
For many years, the farm operated as an 80-acre pig farm, but in 1999, a 10-acre section was sold off and the new owners completely transformed it. The farmhouse remained, but many of the sheds were taken down to leave just a small section, which was turned into stables. When the current owners took over in 2009, the barn itself was initially used as a machinery store and then a lambing shed, the barn has now been converted into a holiday home with a private hot tub, where guests can relax in the evening with a glass of wine in hand.
Immaculately-presented and providing spacious and contemporary accommodation, Woodend Farm Barn enjoys uninterrupted views of the miles of beautiful Perthshire countryside. This property is in an ideal location for relaxing with friends and family, and enjoying the area with all it has to offer.
Gleneagles Golf Course and Auchterader Golf Club are close by, making it an ideal location for golfers, as well as an excellent base for exploring the countryside with its abundance of walks, cycling, fishing, Whisky distilleries, castles and historic homes and gardens.
Crieff, Perth and Stirling are only a short drive away, and just over an hour’s drive from the heart of Glasgow and Edinburgh. The local railway station provides links to all major towns and cities. Alternatively just relax in the garden and enjoy the views, either in the hot tub, or from one of the outside seating areas which the owner has positioned to catch the best of the sunshine.

This place is beautiful. Everything is so thought out. The views are stunning. Sonia is super friendly and helpful. We used it as a base as we explored Scotland and it was perfect! Super cosy !

We loved the setting, it was central for all the areas / attractions we wanted to visit. Sonia was very helpful with towels, clean sheets and eggs as we stayed 2 weeks, also Sonia and her son helped to set up Netflix on the TV. The actual cottages was very comfortable, great bed, lovely shower, hot tub serviced every day. You had all the shops, restaurants and great pubs you could wish for within easy distance of the cottage. Hopefully we'll return one day.
