Nice setting with beautiful views, but a bit isolated and no real walks around the corner if you don’t want to walk on the road. However, with a car it’s just minutes away from town. Overall a cosy place which is rather well equipped and with comfy beds! We missed a washing machine though, but that’s not a big issue. An SUV would be useful if you want to drive to the house without risking the under carriage of the car. A normal car is a bit low. The upper part of the house is for private use only, so the whole place is not in use for the ones letting the house. Although there is plenty of space in the rest of the house for a party of 5 or 6 persons. Overall, a nice place and starting point for exploring Perthshire and the Highlands.

Absolutely loved our relaxing stay. The accommodation was immaculate and location very peaceful yet only minutes away from local amenities. We didn't want to leave and if we get the chance to come back we will.
