Beautiful cottage , everything you need provided. Welcome pack was excellent best we have had. We arrived in storm Bolio, Farragon cottage was the best place to be with log fire -warm and cozy. In easy reach of Pitlochry, Aberfeldy. Road to Tummel bridge unfortunately closed worth checking. We will be back 🍁❤️

A very peaceful location with stunning views of loch Tummel and woodland. The cottage itself has everything you need for a holiday. Huge comfortable bed which can be made up as 2 singles. The cottage itself is accessed via a single track road with passing places, this does take about 20 minutes before you access other roads to take you anywhere. This didn't bother us, but some people might struggle with this. Worth noting that there is a dishwasher, that wasn't detailed in the listing. We would definitely visit again.
