About this property
This romantic retreat for two is surrounded by the breathtaking Strathearn countryside, just 2 miles from the historic spa town of Crieff. Here, you’ll find a great range of independent shops and eateries, along with elegant Victorian architecture and landscaped public parks – perfect for a picnic on a summer’s afternoon. As expected, the surrounding area – on the edge of the Highlands - is a paradise for walkers, including the Munros of Ben Vorlich and Ben Chonzie, where you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views. There’s also a lovely, waterside route around Loch Monzievaird, which can be reached on foot from the cottage. For keen golfers, there are numerous courses within a 15-mile radius of the property, including the world-famous Gleneagles (12 miles). Glenturret Distillery – Scotland’s oldest distillery – is 2 miles away, where you can take a tour or sample a wee dram of their famous malt whiskey.
The converted water mill is attached to the owner’s property, and the accommodation is arranged across the ground floor. Inside, the stone-built holiday cottage is decorated in bright colours, adding warmth and personality to each area, and enjoys far-reaching rural views through characterful panelled windows. The main living space is a vibrant lounge/kitchen/diner with beautiful wooden floors and an array of homely touches. At one end you’ll find a cosy lounge area with plush seating and a Smart TV for catching up on all your favourite programmes. There is also a sofa bed here, but please note the cottage has a maximum occupancy of two guests. Completing this space is a sleek kitchen area with a breakfast bar, and a cute dining table for sharing mealtimes together. Just off the kitchen is a welcoming king-size bedroom with plenty of storage and a contemporary en-suite wet room. Completing the accommodation is a separate shower room.
To the front of the cottage is a gravel courtyard and patio area where you can enjoy a sundowner at the end of a busy day. Guests are also welcome to explore the owner’s garden, which is reached via a flight of steps at the rear of the cottage. Private parking is available for two cars.
