Nestled between the foot of Glen Isla and the Vale of Strathmore, in the bustling market town of Alyth, this delightful stone cottage is a welcoming retreat for couples, families, and their loyal hounds. With the Cateran Trail and the Angus Glens right on your doorstep, there's no shortage of scenic walks to set tails wagging.

Behind the rustic stone exterior lies a cosy blend of character and comfort. The snug lounge, complete with a Smart TV, is perfect for evenings curled up with your faithful friend at your feet. The farmhouse dining room is a welcoming spot for hearty meals after long walks, while the contemporary kitchen has everything you need to rustle up a feast. Upstairs, under the charming sloping ceilings, you'll find two restful bedrooms – one king-size and one double – both brimming with homely touches. A stylish family bathroom with a Jacuzzi bath rounds off this inviting home. At the front of the cottage, a small enclosed garden gives your furry friend a safe place to potter. And if your energetic pup needs a proper run, the dog-friendly park across the market square is just the place for a game of fetch. With private parking for one car, additional spaces nearby and EV charging available, you’ll have everything you need for a stress-free stay.

Water-loving pups will enjoy the peaceful shores of Lintrathen Loch (5 miles) and riverside rambles by the mighty Tay (13.5 miles). For humans, Alyth is a golfer’s paradise, with three courses skirting the village and Blairgowrie Golf Club 5 miles away, while history hounds on the lead won’t want to miss the grandeur of Glamis Castle (10.5 miles). Intrepid explorers don't need to go far, as Alyth's local cycling trails offer bike rides with Rover trotting alongside.

Comfortable, clean and warm. Also central in a friendly, pretty village. Everything you need for a short stay at hand. Can recommend a walk through the Den of Alyth, especially if you enjoy birds.

This is a beautifully presented cottage. Very tastefully decorated and with extra provisions to make it a comfortable and special stay. It is adjacent to the main market square, which has a co op, hotel and other very useful shops. The town of Alyth is located in lovely countryside with plenty of places of interest and beauty to see.
