Not quite as expected
In our opinion, while the property has some positivesâcleanliness, a well-equipped kitchen, and a beautiful location near Aberfeldyâour stay was quite disappointing.
We felt that the property guide was overly strict, with too many rules that made it difficult to relax and enjoy the space. For example, the heating was off when we arrived and controlled by timers that we couldnât adjust. Combined with numerous rules about its use, the property was often cold, which made our stay uncomfortable. Additionally, the rule against moving the lounge furniture to suit our needs felt unnecessarily restrictive.
In our view, the claim of being pet-friendly was misleading. The restrictions on where dogs could go and the unfenced outdoor space didnât align with what we expect from a pet-friendly property. The unexpected ÂŁ25 charge per dog, which wasnât mentioned on the VRBO site, added to our frustration.
There were also other issues. The welcome basket of wood for the stove was missing, and basic supplies like extra toilet roll and kitchen roll werenât provided, which we believe should be standard in any rental.
Overall, while the location is great, we wouldnât return due to these issues. The abundance of rules made it hard for us to feel comfortable and relax during our stay.
Perfect location for exploring Perthshire and beyond. Lots to see and do locally. Great for dogs too as plenty of walking from the front door. Highly recommended!
This was an idle location for the plans we had made in the area. We attended the Menzies Clan annual gathering at the Menzies Castle , which is a short distance from the house. Aberfeldy was only a few minute drive and was a lovely town with very friendly people, nice restaurants, pubs and other attractions. Our trip coincided with the annual ag, craft and Scottish games festival located just outside of town. It was a great cultural event. When we come back we will definitely consider staying in the same home. Thanks Janet!
De woning is ruim en ligt rustig gelegen. Vanuit de woning loop je zo de natuur in.
De eigenaren zijn zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam.
De wifi ontvangst is prima om aan de behoefte van 2 pubers te voldoen.
De slaapkamer en woonkamer is up-to date. De badkamer en toilet is zeer ruim en kan wel een update gebruiken. Ook de apart keuken is ruim en er is veel servies en bestek aanwezig.
My husband, daughter and dog all had a fab holiday in this home from home cottage, it was a perfect location and a great sized house.
Janette was on hand is required (we needed help getting the wood fire lit first time) otherwise you are left to enjoy your holiday
Would 100% recommend and look forward to booking again
A friendly and hospitable welcome. The cottage met all our needs - comfortable and well appointed. And with easy access to the countryside for walking our dog.

A lovely place to stay
The property is lovely and comfortable and contained everything we required for our stay. The property is well maintained and clean. The owners were on hand - never intrusive - to offer friendly advice or assistance. The surrounding area was also lovely with lots of things to do.

Schöner Sommerurlaub in einer ruhigen Umgebung
Die Gegend um Aberfeldy ist schön. Man kann viel unternehmen. Wanderungen, Destillieren besuchen, Schlösser ansehen, Minigolfen (besser gesagt Putten), Essen gehen und relaxen.
Unsere Kinder haben sich den Besuch in Schottland gewĂŒnscht und sehr genossen. Unsere MĂ€dels haben die Pferde in der Nachbarschaft immer wieder besucht und die groĂe Schaukel auf dem GelĂ€nde genutzt. Unser Sohn hat einen Staudamm im Fluss direkt neben dem Haus gebaut, die Wiese zum FuĂballspielen genutzt und oft Feuer im Kamin gemacht. Unsere Vermieter, die direkt nebenan wohnen, sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit.
Das Haus ist schön eingerichtet und auch mit unseren drei Kindern sehr groĂzĂŒgig. Kleines Manko: Die Internetverbindung (egal ob WLAN oder mobile Daten) ist sehr âTagesform abhĂ€ngigâ. An einigen Tagen war diese gut, an anderen sehr schlecht.
Janette and Keith, Many thanks for the wonderful holidays!
