This delightful cottage is perfect for a two guests and a couple of canine companions looking to get away from it all and enjoy a wonderful part of Perthshire. Situated high above the pretty village of Dunning, you can enjoy spectacular views and explore the surrounding farmland and woodlands, with countless walks for you and your dogs available right from the door.

 

Originally the farm bothy, this compact cottage has been cleverly designed to maximise the living space and provide comfortable accommodation for two guests and two of their four-legged friends. The ground floor contains an open-plan living space with separate seating and dining areas, a kitchen space equipped with all the essentials, plus a shower room; stairs lead up to a neat mezzanine level with a double bed. Outside across the courtyard you will find a seating area in the enclosed garden, which is a great spot to wind down in at the end of the day, soaking up the countryside views whilst your dogs can roam freely in the fresh air.

Alternatively, head north-east for 11 miles to the historic city of Perth, where urban hounds will find a wide range of supermarkets, shops and eateries; Kinnoull Hill Woodland Park is well worth a visit for its quirky cliff-side tower, enchanting Dragon's Hole cave and stick-chasing opportunities.

An ideal Base for exploring Perthshire. Some lovely scenery and walks in close proximity. The owners let us alone to enjoy our holiday, but were available if any issues arose. Everything had been thought of to make the stay relaxing.

Well positioned for the east of the Trossachs, Fife and the East coast. Quiet and very clean. Appreciated the accommodation of two dogs. Pretty village with a nice pub and a useful shop one and a half miles away. Pleasant couple, who are there for when you need them but respectful of your solitude otherwise.

Perfect for 2 and the dogs. It's a lovely clean and well designed place to stay with aIl the basics you need. It's central to Sterling and Perth, two places full of history and for some retail therapy. A 3/4 of an hour drive and you can find yourself at Carnoustie and having a day out on the beach.

Great cottage in a lovely location with wonderful views. The cottage was very clean and cosy. Plenty of places to go round about the area. Had some nice walks in woodlands not far from the cottage. There is a great distillery not far away. And Stirling is only a 50 minute drive away.
