Please note: There is an unfenced stream in the grounds.. These three properties are situated in a peaceful wooded area with walks right from the doorstep and numerous roe deer around, yet only 2½ miles from the village of Dunkeld with its shops, ancient fountain and cathedral. Osprey Cottage (ref 15885) has been converted to create a super holiday retreat with rugs on polished wooden floors upstairs in the living areas, and cosy bedrooms below. Heather Croft (ref 26213) is a detached bungalow nearby, cleverly designed by the owners with lots of windows to maximize views of the surrounding countryside. The But ‘n’ Ben (ref 28139) is a charming converted barn for two. An ideal choice whatever the weather. Next door to Dunkeld is Birnam, home of the Beatrix Potter exhibition and where there are riverside walks along the Tay. An 18-hole golf course is 1½ miles away beside the Loch of Lowes Wildlife Reserve. There are walks and cycle tracks in the bordering forest. Fishing locally. Shops and pubs 2½ miles.

A lovely, clean, comfortable cottage.
A lovely, clean, comfortable cottage. Owners very friendly and welcoming. If you want peace and quiet along with an abundance of wildlife and great walks, the But'n'Ben is ideal. Only downside we found was no Wi-Fi or mobile coverage in cottage. Wasn't a problem for us but may be for others. Would like to return and would highly recommend.
