Cottage in Perth and Kinross, Pitlochry

Perthshire. Sleeps up to 6

Set amidst the Grampian Mountains on the banks of a pretty and tranquil loch, this beautifully updated property is perfect for friends and families seeking wild green freedom and exquisite Highland delights. Discover the mystery and romance of spectacular Blair Castle (12.5 miles), ancestral home of Clan Murray. Enjoy the ravishing vistas from Queen's View (4 miles), where wife of Robert the Bruce Queen Isabella and Queen Victoria loved to look west across Loch Tummel; on a clear day, you can sometimes see the west coast mountains surrounding Glencoe. There are myriad forest walks around here; just to the west in Allean Forest (4.5 miles), look out for the remains of an 8th century ring fort and a reconstructed 18th century farmhouse. The cottage's interior brilliantly blends elements of Scandinavian, mid century and contemporary design, to create a superb feeling of light, cosiness, sleek lines and colourful, welcoming spaces. Kick back in the cool wood floored open plan lounge/kitchen/diner, and indulge in the cornucopia of local produce that thrives in this lush, mineral rich landscape. Gather at the table by the glowing wood burner, or on the sofas by the picture window sliding doors with their sublime views of Loch Tummel. Unwind in a steaming bath after days of adventure, leaving muddy things in the wonderful new boot room. The double, twin and bunk bedrooms will lull you to sweet dreams, and the snug has a double sofa bed, with its own dedicated balcony. Lounge with drinks and snacks on the decking or in the enclosed garden, surrounded by wild nature. Find your favourite viewpoint; the sights, sounds, smells and memories will live with you forever.
