It’s a convenient place to stay situated in the center of crieff Everything you need is provided. The bed could do with a topping because of the well felt mattress buttons. A towel extra would be welcome. Just one towel pp for a whole week is not so comfortablle.

On arrival walking into the house it was clean and well presented beautifully, also lovely location as everything you would want to visit whilst being in creiff is a short walk away and its very close to the shops. I would recomend this place to anyone and everyone that would like to visit creiff as a place to stay and if i ever visit creiff again i will definanitly be staying again
