The village of Scone sits two miles north of Perth, and is correctly called New Scone to differentiate it from Old Scone, which had been a medieval village based around the monastery of Scone Abbey and abandoned in the 19th century. Scone Palace dates from the early 1800s in the Georgian Gothic style and is a popular visitor attraction with rooms and grounds open to the public. There is a selection of local shops and amenities in Scone, as well as Perth Racecourse, the two 18-hole Murrayshall golf courses, and a wider range of shops available in nearby Perth. A wonderful base for exploring the south east of Scotland.

  • Fiona

    Very comfortable dog friendly property that met our needs. Only constructive feedback would be to oil the creaking front door. Would return as the stay was perfect.

    Would highly recommend it. Dog friendly. The gardens are beautiful as was the Pinetum. Owners very accommodating. Suggestion would be to have some paper information on local attractions. Also recommendation for places to eat. But we asked and got couple recommendations. It was the best Sykes accommodation we have stayed at to date. We wish the family all the best for their up coming care project.

    Owner was there if we needed anything. My only moan would be that it said there was a DVD player and there wasn’t. This would have been useful due to very poor tv reception. We did manage to get our own Google chrome set up to their Wi-Fi which was very good. The weather was particularly good. So managed to get out and sbout
