Great place to stay away from the crowds in a beautiful valley. The hosts are wonderful and incredibly helpful and friendly.Plenty of walks straight from the property. If you need supplies or anything it is a drive with a local shop about 5 mins away with essentials but anything more than that is 20 mins away in Pitlochry or 25 mins in Blairgowrie. Great place to explore the mountains and lochs from. If you want quiet and peaceful then this is ideal.Cottage is good standard with everything you need.
