It would be better for dog owners if the small garden area could be blocked off to allow your dog to get out. Everything else is perfect

Sadly for me,this was a base to work at Perth Racecourse for Scone Palace International Horse Trials(i did get some downtime to explore).On that basis it suited me down to the ground.Cooking facilities are limited,but i was on a diet of ready meals and takeaways.Good size front room/kitchen area,fridge,washing machine.Nice bathroom dual access from bedroom/living room.Shower was great.Strathmore is a agicultural stronghold,rolling farmland. beautiful in its own right.Ten miles north of Alyth your in the true Highlands.The town of Alyth is beautiful,with a stream running through and two bars plus takeaways.Just back to the cottage,its attached to the owner Heathers house,so gaining access on arrival is no problem,also any issues would be promptly sorted.I will say it would not suit everyone,but for a couple or single person wanting a base to travel or work its great.I loved it.Also it was handy for a bus stop for travel to Dundee,Perth,and Blairgowrie with quite regular services on weekdays.All in all,a good exploring base.
