About this property
In the heart of rural Perthshire, Osprey Cottage is an ideal base for exploring Central Scotland and the Highlands.. Set on a working arable and cattle farm, within the owner’s 2000-acre estate in the Vale of Strathmore, these four welcoming and spacious holiday cottages have been restored to a very high standard. The most recent addition to the collection, Kingfisher Cottage (UK38211) is a renovated, detached, single-storey luxury cottage, tucked way down a farm track. With two stylish bedrooms and beautiful quality furnishings throughout, the high ceilinged open plan living room/kitchen features an eyecatching wood burner flanked by full length picture windows, making the most of the view for the ultimate relaxing experience. Islabank Farmhouse (ref saap) is a traditional, characterful, comfortable farmhouse which is ideal for families. Curlew Cottage (ref syyj) is a charming, beautifully converted, detached, single-storey property and a haven for wildlife. Still part of the farm but located 4 miles away is Osprey Cottage (ref UZQ), a delightful, light and sunny, single-storey detached cottage.

Warm and homely cottage, in peaceful rural surroundings. Lots of local amenities and lovely walks and attractions to visit not to far away. Also lots of farm shops and farm cafés with locally grown produce. The owner Katie gave us lots of helpful tips about places to visit and there is a very comprehensive folder in the cottage full of ideas and places to eat.We had a lovely holiday and are already looking to book another stay.
