  We were upgraded to Lodge 17 from Lodge 6 due to a wedding taking place I can only assume this was to keep wedding guests together Stay was pleasant enough, however, when lodges are advertised as "luxury", then luxury is what you expect.

  What you don't excpect is: 1 flat pillow per person Curtains throughout the lodge which were not ironed (obviously hung straight out of the packet) Dreadful WI-FI Bottle shelf in the fridge was broken and had been glued but fell off again when bottles were placed in it There were no curatain or blinds on the front windows of the lodge so no privacy at night The twin room had only 2 coat hangers On arrival we found a glass behind the curtain in the rear bedroom so obviously window sill had not been cleaned The lodge is for up to 6 people but the fridge was not large enough and only had a small freezer box No dishwasher or washing machine which is surprising for a "luxury lodge" Crockery is a mis-match of different types The hot tub is supposed to be unlocked at 9.30 a.m. but on the Sunday 12th May 2024 and Monday 13th May 2024 it was 10.30 at least before it was unlocked The location is very pleasant but be aware there is very little on site for anybody other than wedding guests Would suggest getting a food delivery from one of the supermarkets in Perth. We got a delivery from Asda T o be clear this is a true reflection of our stay and the accommodation is not "luxurious" and standards need to be raised

  Fantastic Property!

  We had a wonderful 2-night stay for a birthday getaway weekend. The property was exactly as described—clean, well-maintained, and equipped with every appliance you could need. The owner was incredibly responsive, answering a guest's question within a minute. The little touches, like board games in the cupboards, really added to the experience. A few minor complaints / things to keep in mind: The main master bedroom mattress was far too soft—you could feel the springs and almost hit the bedframe. I noticed a similar comment in another review. Despite this, it’s not enough to downgrade the property from 5 stars to 4 (the other three mattresses were perfectly fine). Also, the road leading up to the lodge is quite bumpy until you reach the well-stoned area near the property. I can understand that this is probably out with the owners hands. Due to the location, the WIFI/5G/4G is not the best, We knew this would be the case anyway so wasn't too much of an issue. If coming to the property with younger children it would be something to consider. Unfortunately, we couldn't find a pen to sign the guest book on our last morning, but we would definitely recommend this place to others!

  The lodge was a gorgeous getaway, and has the most amazing views over the hills of Aberfeldy, and is next door to the Dewars Distillery.

  The lodge was clean and everything is quite new. Great showers. The kitchen is well equipped and there's a Travel cot and high chair provided along with toys and games. Its a relatively short walk away from Glen Lyon's Coffee Roasters and Aberfeldy itself. There were a few minor points to highlight and address for future guests. Consider providing more amenities for longer stays. For four nights and three bedrooms and 5 adults, a single spare toilet roll and 3 dishwasher tablets was too little. The master bedroom door doesn't latch properly, and opens whenever the ensuite door is opened, needs adjustment. The mattress in the main bedroom isn't particularly comfortable, this was mentioned in earlier reviews. One of the electric powered window shades in the main room doesn't quite fully open, but they work. Previous comments about the sinks being quite high in the bathroom were not an issue for any of us, but might be an issue for someone short or with a disability. Again, all quite minor issues but hopefully this feedback is seen as constructive. Overall, we all enjoyed a lovely stay in a peaceful, (clean and warm) scenic Lodge.

  Lodge stunning, attention to detail amazing, wonderful views.

  Lovely welcum pack for us and our little dog. A little stool at dressing table would be helpful to sit and dry hair n things, a small detail for comfort thou not a problem. Iona is so helpful and promptly dealt with our noise complaint of building works and a small plumbing issue. She cannot be faulted as a careing owner and followed up by checking we were happy and comfortable. Location was described as idylic and relaxing, on Sykes Cottages website. So we choose here to unwind and were surprised to find building work going on to finish the site. we feel sykes cottages should have made us aware of the fact and let it be up to us if we choose to go during this time. We would gladly go back when work has finished as it will be the perfect retreat then to relax and unwind.

  The lodge was in the woods and we enjoyed the quietness of the place and the dark sky at night in which we Sat outside and watched the stars and meteor showers.

  . The lodge is one of four in a small group so don't expect to have no neighbours. The owner was very friendly as were all the locals we met. We had a very old dog with us who as quoted in the rules Sat and slept on his bed. Unfortunately and this is not a reflection on the owner we had to buy some air freshener for one of the sofas as it smelt of dog and this would not be the case if dog owners followed the rules of the lodge. The lodges position is everything we wanted. Strathpeffer is a beautiful place as is the surrounding areas.many thanks for the treats you left. We definately would visit you again.
