What a great summer it has been!

2018 will be a summer that we will all remember.  The weather has been amazing and it has been a very busy season for us.  We have been working hard to look after our many guests and all our lovely properties and have received lots of wonderful reviews.  As the summer comes to an end and we look forward to the beautiful colours of autumn, we are now getting ready to launch a number of new properties.  Over the next few months you will see 4 new properties appear on our website.  They range from a fabulous 4 bedroom Kirk conversion, with a cinema/games room to a gorgeous 2 bedroom cottage with breathtaking views of Loch Tay.  Keep an eye on our Facebook page for more details on these and other exclusive new properties and for news on special offers.

We have recently updated our The Area page on our website and there is now even more information about all the amazing things on offer in the area, so do take a look.

The other great news for those of you who love to take your dog on holiday with you, is that all 4 of our new properties will be welcoming dogs.  This means that we will have 14 dog friendly properties on offer! We are working closely with Dog Friendly Perthshire who recommend us and are also putting together a directory of local Dog Friendly businesses, cafes, activities and attractions, which will be published on our website.

Finally, we are delighted to introduce the newest member of our team!  Alfie is a Cocker Spaniel and spends his days in the office with me.
