  • "Lovely holiday house in idyllic surroundings."

    It was very clean and comfortable. All of the animals were lovely and made our stay extra special. Stronger wifi would have been an advantage for teenagers however it was a welcome break for adults. We will definitely be back.

  • "Lon Cottage was beautiful, very clean, and the open plan layout was great, I couldn't get the cooker ovens to work, even after reading the instructions, however i wasn't planning on cooking, only wanted to keep breakfast warmed while waiting for the rest stuff to cook, but not a deal breaker, the kitchen was well stocked with everything that was needed."

    The rooms were huge, the ground floor bedroom was cavernous, the bed a superking, it was comfortableish, a little hard for me but i did sleep, the location of Lon cottage was second to none, perfect, ideal for visiting the area,very quiet, very dark on an evening, so i would advise taking a torch for later in the year, if taking furry friends out for last walk. The menagerie that was on the land were lovely, the pgymy goats very friendley as were the Donkeys(husbands Fav's) the albino walaby was an unexpected delight. Ailene was lovely, came to tell us that the electric would be off on Tuesday from 9-5ish, which was really nice of her, as we were going out it didn't bother us, we got back about 4pm and electric came back on about 5.30ish, so just relaxed with magazines and crosswords. all in all a fab 4 nights stay, would love to go back

  • "We spent a week in Lon Cottage."

    The location is lovely and the farm animals are a great asset if you stay with children. We were disappointed that we didn't have a welcome hamper, we were told it's not allowed due to COVID-19 but we couldn't understand why getting a few essentials for our arrival was a problem. The cottage was lovely however we would say the cleanliness was not to the standard we would expect, especially considering they were supposed to have been deep cleaned. There was a dirty wipe behind the dresser in the main room and an old makeup palette in a basket in one of the bathrooms, there was alot of dust and the coffee table was filthy when we wiped it. In the information for the cottage it mentions WiFi is available but intermittent, WiFi is not available or atleast it wasn't during our stay which was a pain we ended up paying alot for extra data. We checked the WiFi connections and they were not set up correctly we did mention it to the host who advised it was a BT problem. Some of the play equipment was broken and the amount of flies in the cottage was horrendous, they really got to us by the end of the week. If there was better attention paid to cleaning the cottage and the flies dealt with aswell as WiFi fixed (or not advertised as having it) we would have probably booked again as it was perfect for the children.

About the location

BLAIRGOWRIE

Kirriemuir 12 miles; Dundee 12 miles; Perth 19 miles.

The red sandstone town of Blairgowrie is situated on the bank of the river Ericht, where it emerges from spectacular gorges in Strathmore. With good shops, great restaurants and coffee bars, it makes an excellent town to start exploring Perthshire and the beautiful Angus Glens. Surrounded by rolling fields, famed for their berries, the town is overlooked by hills and mountains, and is the main link to Scotlands largest ski centre at Glenshee. The surrounding countryside is the perfect terrain for horse riding, cycling, mountain biking and hill walking, whilst golfers are well-catered for with several excellent courses (including Rosemount) locally. Gleneagles and championship courses of Carnoustie and St Andrews are also within easy reach. Marvel at the world’s tallest beech 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 Scotlands most haunted castle! The small town of Dunkeld is also worth a visit with its historic cathedral, riverside walks, impressive trees, such as the Birnam Oak and parent Larches of Dunkeld, and the Hermitage, which offers breath-taking waterfalls. Abundant wildlife frequent the many surrounding woodlands, from red squirrels, foxes and deer to Swifts, Goldcrests and Buzzards, with breeding Ospreys seen at nearby Loch of the Lowes.
