Just spent a week in this lovely cottage. It's in a gorgeous position, up a hill nestled into the hillside of trees, overlooking Castle Menzies and the countryside, out to the river Tay and the hills beyond. It's an absolutely stunning location, and especially in autumn. There was an abundance of birds and you could hear owls and deer at night and early morning. Brilliant dark skies for star watchers. The cottage was warm and well equipped, and the bed was so comfortable. My dog loved all the walks on doorstep, it's just stunning. The owner is on hand and helped us out during storm Amy during a power cut with logs for the fire and candles. It was so cosy with the log fire on an evening. We loved it so much we are already looking to book again for next year.
