Drummond Cottage,
5 miles west of Aberfeldy,
Perthshire
Sleeps 5
Drummond Cottage is a truly delightful holiday house in the beautiful Perthshire countryside bordering lovely Loch Tay, some three miles west of the picturesque conservation village of Kenmore (hotels, shop, cafe.) and five miles west of Aberfeldy (shops/restaurants /golf/ swimming pool). It is part of the award-winning Comrie Steading, designed within the walls of an original mill-and-farm steading. The conversion of the steadings in the 1990s won the top Scottish Heritage Award for the sympathetic restoration of listed buildings.
Drummond Cottage offers holiday visitors the chance to live for a while in this superb landscape of hills and valleys near to the River Lyon, and enjoy walking or climbing nearby Munros, cycling, golf on a choice of courses, or fishing on the Rivers Tay and Lyon. Loch Tay is a prime site for all kinds of water sports and boats can be hired at Kenmore, where there is also a small lochside beach. While you are there, visit the Iron Age crannog in the loch. Water-rafting, canoeing, mountain biking, clay shooting and archery are all available locally. Drummond Cottage is central too for visiting Oban and Fort William, Loch Ness and Inverness, Pitlochry with its famous Festival theatre, and Royal Deeside.
Double-glazed, and excellently heated by total-control electricity and a living flame gas stove, this exceptionally attractive and comfortable cottage with an enclosed garden (furniture and decking area), has amazing views over gorse-covered hills to the rear, a farm with grazing deer to the fore, and the massive bulk of Schiehallion (the Fairy Mountain) beyond.
