The front garden is sloping.. Set within the owners’ 17-acre grounds, The Old Inverchroskie Kennels is a beautifully modernised, detached stone-built cottage set in an elevated position. Commanding fine views of the grounds and hills beyond, there is a stone patio at the front, perfect for sitting out on sunny days with a glass or two, and a private garden area at the back with another sitting-out area, where you can often see the red squirrels bounding from tree to tree. Although there isn’t an enclosed garden, two dogs are welcome at this pet-friendly property. Inside, the open plan living room and kitchen are flooded with light from the high Velux windows and French doors, and there is a wood burner adding to the sense of comfort within.
Wildlife abounds with red squirrels, fallow deer, hare and endless birds on the property, and pine martens can be seen from a nearby local hide. With a plethora of walks and cycle paths waiting to be explored nearby, including the Cateran Trail, your holiday can be as relaxing or as energetic as you like. The village of Kirkmichael is only a couple of miles away with two pubs, a local shop and tearoom. Pitlochry is 10 miles away with shops, eateries, salmon ladder and festival theatre - a very popular venue which hosts a wide range of productions throughout the year.
The lively towns of Blairgowrie, Perth and Dundee (home of Captain Scott’s ship ’Discovery’) are within easy reach, along with the skiing resort of Glenshee, the largest ski area in Scotland. Beyond Glenshee is Braemar, home to the famous Braemar Gathering, a key event in the Scottish Highland Games calendar and one attended by Her Majesty the Queen every year. Shop, pub and restaurant 2 miles.
The Old Inverchroskie Kennels can be booked together with Inverchroskie Cottage (ref UK5602) to accommodate up to 7 guests.
The water is from a spring, well or borehole, and not a mains supply.

Loved this cottage, very clean and well equipped. The nearest shop is 2 miles away so if you like somewhere a bit more lively maybe not for you but if you like peace and tranquility then there's nowhere better. Makes a great base for walking or touring but equally if you want an away from it all break then this is definitely the place

Fantastic kitchen & wet room.
Ideal place to just switch off. Remember where you are though, don't expect inner city broadband speeds & enjoy getting away from it all.
