Old Schoolhouse

The cottage was perfect.

It was cosy and spacious and had everything you could need for a family stay. Communication was great. We loved the location too. We’d definitely recommend this wonderful holiday cottage.

A fabulous place to spend New Year and enjoy the winter weather with gorgeous walks.

Lovely place to stay with all home comforts and amenities, cosy log burner and a mass of great DVD's! Owners very responsive and helpful which was much appreciated. Would definitely recommend and hope we hope to visit again.

It would have been better to know before hand that the log burner was out of action as it was certified as unsafe in March 2025.

Clean and comfortable.

Lovely garden. Nice walks. Well equipped.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Old School House.

All information in the listing is accurate. The property is very well maintained , furnishings are to a very high standard. Good information within the property about the surrounding area including walks/maps. The garden is great we were very lucky with the weather so we were able to enjoy sitting out in the sunshine. We would definitely return.

Key box falling off and difficult to open.

Front door knob falling off. Bad smell in all the house and discovered gas leaking due to hob left on slightly. Kitchen and bathrooms were dirty requiring some of my time cleaning! Bedding was worn out and our fitted sheet was dirty and there were stains on mattress protector.we used the fitted sheet from another bed. Could not find a replacement light bulb. In shower room the sink hot tap was loose. We got on and fixed things as we just wanted to get on with our holiday, You need to ensure the maintenance here as it’s a nice house. The garden is pretty and well maintained. Some serious dusting required in the house. If you need phots let me know.

An ideal position for exploring lovely countryside, which was the reason for the choice in the first place.

Secluded garden very pleasant for relaxing after a busy day. Nearby bar/restaurant on the banks of the Tay very handy if a change from cooking at the property was required!

We found this lovely old house to be fabulously stylish, exceptionally comfortable and perfectly located for exploring this beautiful area of Scotland.

We walked from the door and further afield. There are lots of walks (and other information) provided at the house so no need for prior research. The kitchen is really well equipped, but we had superb meals at the two local pubs, within a 10 minute walk. The house is spotlessly clean. The beds are so comfy and the whole house and gardens are the home away from home you wish you had

Awesome calm cottage with plenty of place, excellent facilities, superb beds, a lovely garden and lots of activities in the surrounding.

Special thanks to the owner for providing three umbrellas and a big library of good DVDs to the visitors! Some minor improvements would make the stay even more agreable: The shower didn't get really hot and the heating in general was adjusted to a quite low average temperature; The shower in the basement and the cooker could have been cleaner.

Lovely week staying old schoolhouse, everything you needed was available , home from home .

We loved the area also , very relaxed thank you

Overall our stay was very good, we had an issue with the fridge when we arrived which Les (the owner) sorted for us.

The house was clean but had lots of high level cobwebs. It is a very good base for watersports, walking and hiking and to visit various distilleries.

great and cozy house

If you are looking for a peaceful, comfortable and spacious holiday cottage with stunning scenery and a great Inn close by then The Old Schoolhouse comes highly recommended.

Our stay involved four adults and a very enthusiastic but well behaved dog.  The property has a well equipped, large kitchen diner, a gorgeous sun lounge, a big but cosy and comfortable lounge and modest sized downstairs shower room and utility area. The bedrooms are of a good size and it has a nice modern bathroom (a non slip bath mat might be a good thing to consider adding). There is a pretty garden (a stream runs down the side of it which will be mentioned again shortly), plenty of driveway and the exterior of the house looks very nice. Suggestions for improvements regarding being dog/child friendly: We appreciate that at different times of the year the stream in the garden will vary in size. It might be safer to fence this off to prevent inquisitive children/water obsessed dogs from getting in. We could never let our dog off the lead in the garden as he would have gone straight in the stream (which, due to all the rain around our stay, was quite fast flowing) and then he would have got muddy pawprints inside the house. We would hate to think of what could happen to an unsupervised child in that area of the garden. A fitted stairgate at the bottom and top of the stairs would be a huge benefit. We brought one from home with us but in The Old Schoolhouse the stairs are generously wide so it was very difficult to adapt our gate to fit the width. It is stipulated in the welcome folder that dogs are not allowed upstairs (which is the same as at our home) but if someone's dog is usually allowed upstairs then the current lack of stairgate would make it very challenging to stick to. All the carpets and furniture in the lounge and sunroom are lovely. Whenever any replacements are needed then it might be an idea to avoid getting cream again as keeping paws/children's hands clean enough to not leave any marks (especially if it is soggy weather) is quite challenging. Having said the above, we all enjoyed our holiday and the location is idyllic. The Inn on the Tay nearby was very dog friendly, welcoming and serves delicious food so was a great bonus to our stay.

Comfortable and spacious with a well equipped kitchen.

A minor issue with the downstairs toilet light which was fixed promptly. Ideal venue for our family get together with the Inn on the Tay Highland chocolatier and the Grandtully hotel on your doorstep for celebration meals

Wonderful house in a beautiful location.

Comfy and welcoming after long walks in the area. Both village restaurants are highly recommended. The Inn on the Tay for great quality casual dining and the Grandtully Hotel for absolutely stunning food! Hot chocolate at The Chocolatier is a must too! A visit to The Hot Box (early booking a must, it’s popular

A beautiful cottage in a great location.

We had a super week, the beds are comfy and the power showers are brilliant! The cottage has everything you need and is a really good size. The log burner made it super cozy. The location was great for access to the A9 so easy to get anywhere for days out. We would highly recommend this cottage and we will no doubt return, this part of Scotland is our favourite place! Thank you.

No welcome pack, just a folder of don't do this don't do that Not welcoming at all.

You can bring 1 dog but it has to sleep in a utility room with a washing machine and a toilet. Bed not comfortable at all , couches to low and it could do with more hand rails on the stairs and it was cold there are logs provided but too bit to fit in the log burner.There was damp in the bedroom and mold on the shower upstairs.

Lovely house with ample space both inside and out.

House has everything you need for a comfortable stay. In a perfect, quiet location but within easy reach of great towns and sites.

Our second visit to the Old School House and we enjoyed it even more than last year.

Fabulous, comfortable, well maintained and spotless. We'll be back.

Lovely property in a great location.

A lovely cottage, everything you need and a short walk to a fabulous pub right on the Tay.

Location great for day trips out, would definitely recommend

Fantastic location, very comfortable and warm, everything you need in the kitchen for cooking, lovely house.

A wonderful, comfortable and well-appointed cottage, peaceful and relaxing with a great kitchen and appliances - we loved our stay and loved cooking some special meals in this beautiful property.

We could not recommend the Old Schoolhouse more highly, a great location to explore Scotland from on foot, or to venture further afield from in the car, and at the end of the day after a day out in the fresh air, a great place to come back to and relax. We loved it, our kids loved it!

The Old School house is a delightful property, roomy bright spotlessly clean and with the most comfortable bed that just swallows you up and sends you sleep .

A large sitting room with two comfortable settees and a high back chair, lovely to relax after a days walking and exploring, then from the kitchen down a few steps to the garden room which opens out onto the garden, excellent for warn summer evenings.Everything I you could wish for. Outside is a large enclosed garden, beautifully kept with plenty of parking for at least two cars. The owners have thought of everything from a pair of wellies to spare dog walking leashes and more. Would definitely recommend.

We had a great time at the Old School House.

Fantastic property, lovely garden, nothing negative to say at all, would highly recommend. Everything you could want from a holiday let and more, one of the most comfortable and cleanest we've stayed in. Beautiful area of Scotland we've been many times and never get tired of it. Lots of places to see and do. Will hopefully return next year.

Excellently located cottage to explore all that Perthshire has to offer.

The cottage itself was very well appointed (and has been recently, and fully, updated) with fully enclosed grounds; it was the right size for a family of 4 (with a dog) too. Owner’s property instructions (including their do’s and don’ts, which were articulate and very fair) and tips for the local area were excellent. Recommended and we would definitely stay again.

Nice cottage but a few issues: 1.

Dog poo (not our own dog) on the lawn (by the bench at the top of the garden) upon arrival. Also when we arrived, the dishwasher still had items in and the tumble dryer was on. Not necessarily the owners fault, but not a good first impression! 2. No light bulbs in the lamp in the main bedroom. We sent a text message about this to one of the numbers supplied by the owner but received no reply. 3. This is a dog friendly cottage, however where is the dog meant to sleep? Our dog sleeps in the kitchen at home, but this was impossible at the cottage as there is no ‘barrier’ between kitchen and stairs / route to upstairs. As the dog was not permitted upstairs it would’ve been a good idea to provide a child / dog gate at the base of the stairs. This would obviously help with those staying with children too. The very small utility was not a good place for our dog to sleep at night and he (and we) were not happy at spending the week in there…..it was barely big enough for his bed, let alone his crate and water bowl! 4. Very tiny downstairs shower and un-usable basin. In reality this is a one bathroom cottage…..especially as you can’t access it at night as the door is blocked with dog bed! 5. The gardener turned up unannounced to mow the lawn on a day when we were all sat in the garden….it would’ve been good to get some sort of warning / note in the information booklet about what day and when the gardener was due to arrive. On the plus side, the location was very good, the cottage itself is of a good size and the garden is very nice to sit in. Good to have parking for two cars and nice to have the external power supply for my plug in hybrid car.

Really comfortable cottage set in beautiful surroundings within easy reach of local market towns and with two excellent eateries within 10 minutes easy walk.

We had a great stay and the weather was even kind to us……

Outstanding decor and comfort.

Would point out the following as requested by owners. 1. Dishwasher not working on arrival, (repaired within 4 days) 2. Carpet in sun lounge not cleaned properly thick with dark coloured dog hair uplifted one shovel full of dog hair (photographed to substantiate) 3. Toilet seat upstairs not secured needs repaired. 4. Downstairs toilet hot tap insecure needs permanent fixture. Toilet roll holder ready to come off wall. 5. Would be helpful to have outside drying facility 6. Comfortable garden furniture would be appreciated.

It was our second stay at this cottage - a lovely property in a beautiful area.

The kitchen is well equipped and lounges and bedrooms very comfortable.

Absolutely fabulous cottage, very stylish, great location, highly recommended

Thank you.

Very nice. Whether for a few days or a few weeks, lots to see around the area. Easy travel to Pitlochry, Aberfeldy, Dunkeld and Perth. If you have a dog, it'll be as much a holiday for them. Contained garden that our pup would have stayed out all day. He loved the gorgeous walks to next to the river where he chased Red Squirrels, Pheasants and Deer most mornings. Visit the Birks of Aberfeldy or get off to Ossians Cave in Dunkeld. For a dog friendly hostelry you can't better the Inn on the Tay. Will be worth another visit for us.

The sofas in the main sitting room are quite uncomfortable - not a lot of support.

Other cottages I have rented have provided the first basket of logs for the wood burner. We arrived following a power cut and would have welcomed the ability to light the log burner immediately. Other than that the cottage was perfect.

It is a lovely traditional cottage, decorated tastefully which makes it feel quite luxurious.

Cleaning was reasonable but socks and toiletries left by other holidayers etc isn’t very reassuring when you arrive for your stay. The instructions regarding bins/what you can flush down the toilet etc. we found to be very aggressive and would have preferred a gentler approach to getting the message across.

What a lovely holiday cottage!

We had a great stay in The old School house. Such a beautiful, roomy house with all the comforts of home. We would definitely return. A lovely base for exploring the beautiful surrounding area. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Charming and delightful cottage with a tiny stream running through the garden.

The Old Schoolhouse is a Victorian building brought up to modern standards and tastefully decorated following a very recent refurb. Great are to stay as well with lots of things to do. Coop (med) just 10 minutes away in Abberfeldy along with petrol and lots of great independent shops and cafes. All this made for a great holiday. PS visit the Cranog Centre great for all ages
