Property code: OC-CA145

This stunning Perth and Kinross home is ideal for a celebratory get-together with all the family. It wouldn't be a true family retreat, however, without your favourite four-legged members of the pack, so you'll be happy to hear that two dogs are welcome to come along too. Both dogs and children alike will adore the seemingly endless private garden while adults have a sweet summer house to sit back in and enjoy a glass of wine or two. Let both children and canines tire themselves out before retiring to one of two warming wood burners, where you can curl up and watch a favourite movie together late into the night.

 

The heart of the home is the wonderful sitting room, where comfortable sofas surrounding a warming wood burner, create a cosy hub in which to relax after dinner. Those who prefer to collapse in front of the Smart TV can head to the lounge where a second wood burner awaits. The kitchen is a well-equipped and versatile space, perfect for preparing dinner or a packed lunch for the day ahead. Outdoors you'll find an impressive garden set to lawn, the perfect space for dogs to play a spot of fetch before a long car trip.

 

Wander the 1-mile country road down to the pretty Loch of Butterstone, an excellent place for a daily dog walk. Enjoy a day out to Loch Tay and Drummond Hill, found in a section of the Tay Forest Park just 28 miles away. This enjoyable hill walk will take you a good couple of hours and will no doubt tire out even the most energetic of pups. Early winter visits must check out the nearby Faskally Wood, where the Enchanted Forest light show creates a unique and unforgettable evening out for adults. The cherry on the cake is that your four-legged friends get to enjoy yet another woodland walk!

Great cottage. Very well equipped and very comfortable and spacious. Not really suitable for anyone with mobility difficulties due to internal stairs. We really loved our stay there though.

We had a wonderful family weekend at Forebrae. The house is very well equipped and a great size for a family. The bedrooms are a good size and the house was warm. We loved the log burners in the lounge and the snug- it was very cosy. I especially loved the dining table, beautiful wood. We spent alot of time playing games on it. My grandchildren enjRead moreoyed bouncing on the trampoline, it was a huge success. I would recommend this house to any family. Hide

Beautiful well equipped cottage in lovely countryside. Everyone in our group aged 10-70 enjoyed watching the birds in the mornings around the bird feeder which is opposite the Lounge window, especially seeing a Nuthatcher, Woodpecker and the pair of Pheasants

Forebrae was an incredible place to stay! We will definitely come back. Where it was located was so central to everywhere and the local village of Dunkeld is so picturesque. You can drive out to see local fluffy cows (Highland cows), take local walks, you can take a day trip to the Highlands, the coast or Edinburgh. And of course the wood burner waRead mores so cosy and the whole house incredibly equipped, it has everything you need for a wonderful holiday and rest. Definitely recommend it highly. Hide

Forebrae is such a beautiful place to stay. Setting is just stunning, and so peaceful. You can just sit and watch the wildlife as they stroll thru the garden. We saw a herd of deer and a little bambi and mum wandered across the lawn. The house has everything you could need and the kitchen equipment is excellent. We have stayed twice as a group of 1Read more0 and the house bothvisits has been spotless and well maintained. We love that there is a good mix of sleeping arrangements as well. Home from home! Hide

The house was great. Well stocked with everything you need, lots pans and glassware, (Not always the case with holiday rentals). We stayed 4 nights and loved it. Well kept but with a lot of character and charm. Not far from the local village which has everything you need. Highly recommend this cottage.
