About this property
The Hayloft is located in a rural area with plenty of attractions locally for all ages.. Located deep in the heart of an attractive rural area, these two holiday cottages enjoy a peacefully idyllic setting by the tumbling Fochy burn. A striking mill conversion, the Waulkmill Cottages retain original beams and offer beautifully furnished ‘upside-down’ style accommodation, which has been equipped to a high standard. Standing as a pair, they each boast private patios, and benefit from shared use of large woodland and grounds, complete with a hard tennis court and a games room with pool table, table tennis, darts and a selection of games.
They lie just 3 miles from the shores of Loch Leven and Lochleven Castle, the island stronghold served as a prison to Mary Queen of Scots in 1567, until her escape 11 months later. Popular with fishermen, for its pink-fleshed trout, the loch is also a haven for wildlife enthusiasts, with the rspb Nature Reserve, Vane Farm, occupying the land adjacent. Historic Perth (15 miles) offers good shopping, restaurants and a wealth of diverse attractions, whilst Edinburgh and Glasgow are within an hour’s drive. Rosyth ferry port within half an hour’s drive. Kinross (2 miles) for golf course. Riding and sailing nearby. Shop and pub serving food, 2 miles.

We had a great stay, Lynn is a fantastic host. The cottage is beautifull and very clean. Our kids really liked the play room and tennis court.

Whilst my experience booking with VRBO and cottages.com is not something I would recommend, this property was simply stunning. Rurally set and thoughtfully put together - I would absolutely recommend the Hayloft. It was well equipped and very comfortable with warm heating on chillier October nights. The stream and surrounding fields are beautiful to look out on, the flowers surrounding the property set the cottage scene beautifully. The addition of the games room and tennis court is fun, plus dvds to borrow for movie nights in.
