“Home from Home”

This cottage is very clean, well equipped and a credit to the owners. We spent an enjoyable week here with our grandson and visited a few of the many castles and grand houses in the area. The location could not be better and we found more days out than we had time for! A good excuse to have a second visit. The only down side was the very steep hill from Blairgowrie town centre to the cottage but on the plus side a trip to the shops on foot keeps you fit. Thoroughly recommended place to stay.

“The cottage was comfortable and had more facilities than we expected.”

The location was ideal with Blairgowrie, a bustling town, and Dunkeld some 14 miles west providing some rich Scottish heritage. We enjoyed a good selection of 2-3 hour walks during our week long stay and have plenty of colourful Autumn photograghs to encapsulate the beauty of the local countryside.

“Great holiday, cottage is up a bit of a hill and we had a wheelchair user (unexpected broken leg for 87yr old mother in law) so we always used the car but no great inconvenience.”

Cottage was immaculate and owners next door on hand if needed. Good base to tour Perthshire and the highlight of this break was seeing the Queen, Prince Charles and Prince William returning to Balmoral Castle from church on Sunday morning. I have no hesitation in recommending this cottage as an excellent place to stay.

“Great cottage well furnished and plenty of room.”

A lovely cottage with all the mod cons that you need. The location is within a short distance of the town centre with plenty of places to eat so you can leave the car at home and have a drink. An ideal location for exploring the local area we found this cottage well situated and the owners who live on site were very helpful.

“We attended a golfing week with another couple.”

The cottage was ideally located. It was clean and modern with all accessories we required. Beds were very comfortable. We were made welcome by the owner with milk and tea/coffee available on our arrival. Cottage with in walking distance of all facilities. Would definitely book again if in the area.

“Blairmont Coach House is one of the best places we have stayed at in the U.”

K. Ease of parking and situated on the edge of a lovely town and close to various places of interest.

“A lovely warm welcome from the Owner when we arrived at the site.”

Very comfortable and well appointed property in a great location. Really comfortable rooms and bathrooms up and downstairs so no waiting in line in a morning. Rooms are very bright and airy and great use has been made of the space. The house contains everything you could possibly need for your holiday and has some great Coo coasters to boot. It is at the top of a hill which is fine at the start of the week but more suited to seasoned walkers by the end of it. We walked around the area every day but we didn't touch a fraction of the walking opportunities around there if that is what you are looking for from your holiday. Ideal for a great number of sights and activities (stately homes, waterfalls etc) within an hour's drive of Blairgowrie - you couldn't ask for a better location. Even the town has everything you could ever need.

“Loved it!”

My wife and I have just returned home after a two week stay in this accommodation and we loved it. We only wish that we could have stayed longer. It was the perfect base for exploring Perthshire. We were lucky in that we enjoyed excellent weather during our stay and that meant that we were able to go out walking almost every day. The accommodation is spot less clean and beautifully presented. It is spacious and light and has all the facilities that you would need. There is ample parking and a lovely patio area to sit and enjoy a glass of something after a good day walking in the hills. Some reviews mention that this property is situated at the top of a steep hill, yes it is but we didn't have a problem with that although we only had to walk up it about four times during the whole fortnight, and that wasn't a bad thing after eating a heavy meal in town. The owners live next door to the accommodation and are a lovely couple. They are helpful and friendly without being intrusive. This is a great property and we would have no hesitation in using it again when we return to Perthshire.

“Excellent accommodation and the owners were very helpful making us feel right at home.”

Provisions were waiting for us on arrival, garden was lovely and very well kept. The house was spotlessly clean and we shall return next year. We were also very fortunate to see Perthshire at it's best in glorious sunshine!

“Comfortable, well equipped, spotlessly clean, well positioned cottage.”

Excellent location for visiting Dunkeld, Pitlochry and the beautiful surrounding area. Blairmount Coach House is well positioned with a short walk accessing local pubs and shops. The cottage itself is excellent, comfortable, well equipped and spotlessly clean. What more could you ask for!

““Blairmount Coach House” Excellent place to stay”

We had a lovely week staying at the Coach House. Everything was clean and in good order. It had everything you could want/need for a relaxing holiday. It is situated in an ideal location so not many miles to do to visit lots of lovely places. The owners were lovely and helpful. We would not hesitate to recommend a stay at the "Coach House". Thank you for making it a great holiday experience.

“Very nice holiday cottage”

This is a very comfortable cottage in a convenient location. We were made very welcome by the hosts. Everything you need is in the cottage. The hill is very steep to get back up so beware, but worth the climb. Local amenities are very close and a good selection. Lots of places to eat out and drink. Supermarkets close if you prefer to eat in.

“Brilliant accommodation!!”

Had a wonderful week in the coach house, it is immaculate & very well maintained. We were there with a two year old & a seven year old who both loved the house and were sad to leave! Only a few minutes from the town. Owners were extremely helpful.

“it made us feel at home whilst being on holiday”

excellent accommodation, one of the best we have ever stayed in. Lovely location, with plenty enjoyable walks locally, and further afield. The owners of coach house were very friendly and helpful and living next door, were on hand if we needed anything (which we never did). The one negative was the fact the accommodation was at the top of a very steep hill, and although we new before hand about that fact we were not quite prepared for the severity of the hill, and had to use our car more than we would have normally'

“A Perfect Cottage”

What a lovely clean, tidy property this is, with a lovely friendly couple - Anne & Sandy - next door who look after the property as well as any requirements you may have. The cottage is a short walk from the centre of Blairgowrie, although the walk back up the hill can be a bit challenging if you are as unfit as we are, and within easy striking distance from anything of interest, of which there are many, in the central Scotland area. We spent a week at the cottage at the begining of August and loved every minute, despite the weather (Thank God for the Olympics). if we return to Scotland for a short stay or a holiday we will certainly consider booking this property again. Would highly recommend this property to anybody wishing to stay in the Blairgowrie area.

“Absolutely fabulous!”

Sykes is a first class rental agency. Friendly, efficient staff who were very helpful in assisting us in our choice of holiday accommodation. Blairmount Coach House is a superb property - a real home from home. Clean, comfortable, warm, well equipped and spacious. It sits at the top of the hill in Blairgowrie with just a 5 minute walk down into the beautiful town centre with its abundance of local shops and the obligatory supermarket! The walk back up the hill can be challenging and take a little longer than 5 minutes, but the exercise does you good! The owners of this property are really friendly and welcoming and there if you need them. I have absolutely nothing to dislike about this property - it's just perfect!

About the location

BLAIRGOWRIE

Perth 16 miles; Dundee 19 miles.

The red stone town of Blairgowrie is situated on the banks of the River Ericht, where it emerges from spectacular gorges in Strathmore. With good shops and great restaurants, it makes an excellent base for exploring Perthshire, the beautiful Angus Glens and is a gateway to the Highlands. Surrounded by rolling fields - famed for their raspberries - the town is overlooked by hills and mountains, and is home to Scotland's largest skiing centre at Glenshee. It's the perfect terrain for riding, cycling and walking, whilst golfers are well-catered for with several excellent courses (including Rosemount) locally and St Andrews and Gleneagles also within easy reach. Marvel at the world's tallest hedge at Meikleour (600m long and 30m high), see Meigle's collection of Pictish sculpted stones, or listen to stirring tales at Glamis Castle, the setting for Macbeth and said to be Scotland's most haunted castle! The small town of Dunkeld is also worth a visit with its historic cathedral, riverside walks, Big Trees, such as the Birnam Oak and parent Larches of Dunkeld, and the Hermitage, which offers impressive waterfalls. Blairgowrie is also close to the Loch of the Lowes which is home to breeding ospreys.
