2 Bed Cottage in Newtyle

About this property

This detached residence is within strolling distance of Newtyle’s well-stocked shop and welcoming inn. Follow a range of walking routes from the village, or join the Cateran Trail – a 60-mile circular route through historic drove roads – at Blairgowrie (10.5 miles). For sporty types, the golf courses at St Andrews, Carnoustie, and Rosemount are within a 23-mile radius, while Glenshee Ski Centre is 24 miles away. Step back in time at Glamis Castle (8 miles) and Scone Palace (18.5 miles), and visit Kirriemuir (12 miles), the birthplace of both author J. M. Barrie and rock legend Bon Scott. Climb Kirrie Hill and use the Camera Obscura, a gift from Barrie that offers panoramic views of the surrounding area; his childhood home is open to visitors too. The cities of Dundee (11 miles) and Perth (18 miles) offer a full flavour of local life, and for coastal contrast, the sands of Broughty Ferry (14 miles) stretch along the Firth of Tay.

Park on the gravelled driveway and pause to appreciate the verdant views as you unpack – this early 17th-century property is in an idyllic position. Pass through the vestibule and there’s space to store outdoor clothing in the hallway, beyond which you’ll find a welcoming lounge with a choice of sofas arranged before the woodburner and Smart TV. A selection of DVDs, books, and board games adds to the entertainment options, while French doors grant easy access onto the garden. Close by, the dining room is traditionally furnished and provides a formal setting for mealtimes; a breakfast table complements the country-style kitchen and makes a great spot for impromptu chats while dinner cooks. A shower room completes the ground-floor layout; climb the tartan-carpeted staircase to the first-floor landing, off which you’ll find a family bathroom plus two beautiful bedrooms – a double and a twin.

Lined by mature trees and shrubs, the fully enclosed, private rear garden is splendid, with a sunken dining area and charcoal BBQ close to the house and further seating amid the greenery.
