Please note: This property has a natural water supply from a spring.. This lovely detached log cabin, with a turf roof, has been carefully furnished throughout to provide stylish and welcoming accommodation. Its mix of contemporary furnishings combined with the wooden walls creates a warm and inviting home, perfect at any time of the year. The high ceiling in the living room provides a light and airy feel, whilst the cosiness of the wood burner is a real delight on colder days. The living room leads out onto the patio overlooking the decking. Its idyllic location, amongst a variety of trees in a secluded position, yet within easy access to the village of Kirkmichael, makes it a real haven for relaxation. Watch the variety of wildlife on the doorstep - plenty of red squirrels, roe deer and woodland birds who love the peaceful environment, can be easily seen. The property really is a hideaway, accessed by a non-tarmac track and in winter, the track can get snowy and icy. However, the owners are on hand should you need assistance.
From the sloping 3-acre garden, interspersed with pathways, there are excellent walks through the mixed woodland onto heath and moor which opens up to breathtaking views, perfect for hill and dog walkers. In particular there is the Cateran Trail – a 100 mile circular walk through the Angus Glens and Perthshire. Winter sports at Glenshee Ski Slopes provide extensive skiing and snowboarding facilities, and are located just a short drive away. The popular towns of Pitlochry and Blairgowrie are just 13 miles equidistant with a great variety of shops, a theatre, fine dining restaurants, cafés and a distillery, all well worth a visit. Golfers can test their skills on over 30 courses in the area, and for the more adventurous there is mountain biking, fishing and horse riding. Throughout the year many events are held in the region including The Strathardle Gathering every August (Highland Games), The Etape Caledonia Cycling Event in May, The Perthshire Open Studios and The Blairgowrie Book Festival in October, which can be enjoyed whilst staying in this lovely property. Shop, pub and restaurant 1 mile.

The pictures don’t do it justice.So much bigger than it looks and exceptionally clean on arrival.The whole cottage is superbly stocked with everything you need. If you are keen on nature you will not be disappointed…the nature comes to you.Even though you feel remote, there are larger places to stock up only 30 mins drive away with 2 fridges and a freezer available to reduce the shopping trips.Walks straight from the back door and all dog friendly.Nice hot tub to rest the weary legs afterwards.Great contact with the owners who live local and are available to offer advice of alternative walks in the area.I would highly recommend.

Stunning cottage in a beautiful location. Perfect for nature lovers and bird watchers. The owners have thought of everything you might need while away from home. The setting is good for some peace and quiet. But Pitlochry is only a small drive away through some gorgeous scenery if you need any shopping. I’d recommend this cottage to anyone and hope to be back again in the future.
