Perthshire. Sleeps up to 4

1 The Cross is a well-appointed historical apartment that can be found lying at the heart of Dunkeld village.

Draw yourself a bath in the stylish and peaceful bathroom or make use of the overhead shower for a refreshing wash following a muddy walk in the countryside. At the end of the evening, retire to your roomy double bedroom boasting ample storage from its fitted wardrobes and pretty dressing table, whilst the second of the bedrooms is a twin and has been decorated with neutral tones and is home to two single beds.
