Our second time at Faragon cottage, lovely spot, ideal for the pease and quite. Perfect for walking, cycling and generally spending time out doors. We saw loads of deer and a badger on the road from Pitlochry and plenty of Hares in the fields. Beautiful spot if you want to get away from the crowds. BLISS.

A lovely cottage in a beautiful location. Everything was clean and well equipped. It is a long [20 minute drive] to the end of the single-track road to the A9. Therefore, plan your visits out and trips to the supermarket as it is at least a 30 minute drive away.I would highly recommend the cottage if you like seclusion with a great view.
