A total relaxing holiday, just what was needed after a hectic few months. Top marks for Fonseca and Aberfeldy.

This is a real gem. Right in the heart of Aberfeldy but tucked back from the main road with a fully enclosed garden. Everything you could possibly need is included along with modern kitchen and amenities. The bed is one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in. The owner is lovely and very welcoming and accommodating. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this cottage.

Stayed 2 nights back in May, this cottage is absolutely gorgeous, modern, well equipped and the ideal location for exploring Aberfeldy and beyond. Marie was very helpful, with lots of knowledge about local walks, restaurants etc. Would definitely recommend and we'll be back! **
