An excellent place to stay, comfortable, quiet, yet central. Only problem was, trying to find it first off, we passed the road end. One sign was obscured by a tree branch - but there was another we missed. We recommend it.

A ‘gem’ of a B and B! Will return 😊

Very comfortable room. Very clean and had everything we could possibly need. En suite bathroom spotless and comfortable though small.Bed very comfortable with good mattress. Breakfast ordered the night before and delicious. Only slight criticism was small pieces of toast to put in toaster and very difficult to get out and no small jug of milk on the table for tea/coffee. These are only minor things! Lovely traditional house in a tranquil setting and very well decorated and modernised. Host and Hostess very attentive and friendly.

The ads were misleading as the property is NOT in Pitlochry - but a good 20 - 30 minutes away with no transportation other than a personal vehicle available. There are no dining facilities within walking distance nor any entertainment. Also we were moved to a higher floor than we were promised.
