Description
Crieff is within walking distance. (2.5 miles)
Pittencleroch Mill is a charming, converted water mill situated on a remote country road near Crieff in Perthshire, and there is a multitude of circular country walks on the doorstep to wander through the beautiful local area, an ideal spot for wildlife spotting. Boasting a large garden and off-road parking, this delightful retreat is perfect for those who love hiking, biking, venturing into the great outdoors, or those simply seeking a serene countryside escape.
Upon entering the property, you will be delighted by the characterful features of exposed original stone walls, a stable door, an arched window, and high ceilings, seamlessly blending with the modern appliances, offering a glimpse into the property's historic past, dating back 300 years, yet offering everything you need for a well-equipped self-catered stay.
The house is extremely spacious, offering three separate public rooms, a work area, as well as a large dining kitchen.
Guests often comment on how well-equipped the spacious kitchen is, where you can cook meals together, which can be savoured at the large dining table.
The large rear garden also has ample garden furniture for alfresco dining in the calm surroundings, with the noises of birdsong and the babbling stream adjacent. This spot is an ideal enclosed place for children to play.
The downstairs sitting room, complete with a warming woodburning stove, offers a welcoming space to unwind after a day of exploration.
The property also boasts a games room, well-stocked with a selection of books, toys, and games to keep guests of all ages entertained.
For those needing to catch up on work or simply seeking a quiet reading corner, there is a mezzanine with a workstation.
Also upstairs, an additional large sitting room awaits, complete with a Smart TV and an electric woodburning effect stove. This provides a perfect spot for a movie night or to simply relax with a good book, with beautiful south facing views over the surrounding fields and hills. Red squirrels and a multitude of birds visit the feeders just below the huge south-facing window.
Sleeping arrangements consist of four well-presented bedrooms (and three bathrooms): a king-size with adjacent bathroom, a double and an upstairs twin which share a bathroom, and a ground-floor twin with its own sink and an adjacent bathroom, offering flexibility to suit all types of groups.
Locally there is much to do and fine places to visit and dine. Meander through the bustling town of Crieff, which is a short drive or walk away. MacRosty Park in Crieff is great for young children and families. Beautiful walks above Crieff give stunning views and there are also gorgeous easy circular walks along the river Earn.
For guests seeking a thrill, head to Action Glen, where you can hire quad bikes, take a challenging obstacle course, or zip wire through the picturesque woodland, offering a guaranteed laughter-filled activity for any age.
The local area is steeped in local history with many places of interest to visit.
Step back in time at the Old Muthill Church and the historical Ardoch Roman Fort; don't miss a visit to the ancient site of Innerpeffray Library—the oldest in Scotland—and St. Serf's Church & the Dupplin Cross to immerse yourself in the rich history and heritage of the area.
Further afield, a visit to Auchingarrich Wildlife Park will allow you to get up close to a range of native and exotic animals.
St Andrews, Loch Tay, Elie, Stirling Castle, and scenic Loch Earn are all an easy drive away, while Edinburgh is a short train ride from the historic Gleneagles train station. Perhaps the train enthusiast in your group will love a day out at the Scottish Model Engineering Trust Wester Pickston Railway.
Pittencleroch Mill promises a getaway filled with tranquility and exploration.

What guests are saying
Fiona was a wonderful host who managed to accommodate us, last minute, after our previous reservation was cancelled.
She met us at the property and went over everything with us, and you could see how proud she was of her property. We were blown away by all the space we had inside and out.
This was an absolutely perfect place to for my family and my brother's family to spend some quality time together.
Plenty of space to spread out, a fabulous playroom full of games and toys, and a beautiful garden in which to relax and enjoy nature. And not forgetting the extremely well equipped kitchen! Really short drive away from Creiff with tasty bakeries and a very good Indian takeaway. The owner is very friendly and approachable and we felt very welcome. Will definitely be returning
The Mill House is in a beautiful setting, with plenty of room indoors and out for a family to enjoy the holiday, whatever the weather.
Fiona was very helpful and welcoming. The facilities are excellent and of a high standard.
