“You will not find a place anywhere in the world that beats the classic British Stately home for comfort, style and service”.

One of Scotland’s finest examples of a classically furnished, luxury holiday home sleeping 14 in great comfort. Enclosed by beautifully maintained gardens, in the heart of an Ancient Highland Estate in Perthshire, this private retreat has been the ‘home from home’ for the elite and wealthy.

Guests have access to a tennis court, mountain bikes, games room, a hot tub and private hill lochs, game fishing and shooting to mention a few. Within an hour and a half drive of Edinburgh, access to this property couldn’t be easier particularly when a valet service can be arranged for those flying in.

Claridges trained chef & resident housekeeper, Simon, will ensure guests’ needs are always met no matter how large or small the request. On arrival guests can expect to walk into a welcoming environment; where fires will be lit, the dining table laid ready for use with beautifully starched linen and polished silverware, and electric blankets set to warm extra long beds. Attention to detail and guest comfort is one of Simon’s top priorities.
