As the name suggests, this cottage ensures your four-legged friends will have as amazing a holiday as you will in the remarkable Scottish countryside. The home comfortably sleeps four guests, ideal for families or a small group of friends, and you're welcome to bring along four dogs. Man's best friend will no doubt adore the grassy lawn out front, enclosed and private to ensure you don't have any furry escapees during your stay.

This country cottage maintains a traditional aesthetic throughout, creating a homely and instantly welcoming space. The cosy lounge is an inviting area for unwinding after a long day of walking and exploring. Enjoy the luxury of a full Sky TV package, no doubt with one (or four) dogs curled up at your feet. The open fire is the perfect antidote to a cold winter's evening, creating a warm hub and cosy sleeping spot for your beloved bowows. In the summer, you can look forward to enjoying the outdoor space. The secluded location of the home ensures you can unwind with privacy, whilst the large enclosed garden provides perfect space for dog training or simply running off some steam on lazier days.

Less than 500 metres from the home, you'll find yourself at the popular tourist spot of Queen's View - a stunning viewpoint of the nearby Loch Tummel. This area boasts an abundance of waterside and woodland walks. Be sure to leave no stick unfetched in this rural area, going mutts for the glorious landscapes and exciting local wildlife. Those eager to bag a Munro can embark on a trip up Schiehallion (15 miles), an easy walking route that's ideal for both pets and their masters to enjoy on a clear day.

A great cottage, with an extremely secure garden which we have never had in any of our previous cottages. Our 2 dogs were able to roam freely with no worries. There is a shed outside which has everything for the woodburner you could need: kindling, small logs, dry wood, regular wood and newspaper for starting the fire. Pitlochry is a 15 minute drivRead moree away and they have lots of places to eat, cafes, charity shops, scottish shops. Overall, the owner was very helpful and we had everything we needed Hide

3rd stay and as relaxing as ever. Location is perfect for us and the weather was amazing. Easy access to many beautiful places. If you want a modern cottage this isnt for you but it's perfect for the location. Not a single log was left for the fire so we had to drive into pitlochry to get some. Will be back a 4th time!

What a beautiful place to stay for us and our dogs! It's not slick and modern but then neither are we and it's all the better for it! The dogs loved the garden and we loved watching the birds. We brought bird food with us but wouldn't have needed to because you supplied it along with comfy loungers in the summerhouse.. We only took a couple of tripRead mores out because we were all really happy staying put. We've stayed at a lot of nice places over the years but never one where we felt so relaxed. Hide

This traditional cottage is very cosy and well kitted out in beautiful wooded surroundings. In the Winter, guests need to be prepared to bring bottled water in case of freezing or that the water may need boiling; and that the steep drive may be icy for cars to go up. But if are well prepared this winter wonderland getaway is well worth the effort.

This is a delightful quirky property which reminded me very much of my grandparents' cottage in the country. You need to be prepared to accept that part of its charm is that it is dated but that very much appealed to me and my friend. Do take some bird food with you. You will be well rewarded.
