Puccini

The property was very jaded The curtains were hanging of the rails The lampshade was covered in cobwebs they had been there a long time the cups in the cupboard were dirty we had to put them in the dishwasher along with a lot of the cutlery and glasses The bathrooms were okay except for the one upstairs had no blind to the window and as it was facing the house opposite you couldn’t Use it after dark The garden was a complete mess very over grown the garden furniture well if it had been warm enough you wouldn’t want to sit on it Overall needs tidying up a lot The out house were the washing machine was located was a assault course Stuff all over the floor But it was a good location to visit the area

We had a lovely holiday here, the cottage is lovely and quiet

We really enjoyed our stay at Puccini.

The welcome pack was so generous and everything we needed for a comfortable stay was well- provided. The enclosed garden was a bonus for the dog. The bed was super comfortable and there was a very nice shower. The location was excellent for touring the area with not far to go in any direction to explore. The holiday experience was relaxed and comfortable.

A wonderful, comfortable cottage in a perfect location.

Had a lovely week in Puccini Cottage. Facilities excellent, enclosed safe garden for our Saluki dog. Sky package on the TV. Games and books in the cupboard. Extremely generous and tasty welcome pack, including very thoughtful hot cross buns for Easter. Great weather, watching canoeing in the river minutes from the cottage. Hope to return. Thanks to host Roxanne x

Beautiful cottage, so peaceful surroundings.

, plenty of walks in area, just a short walk to Tay. Owner so helpful and informative of area.

Lovely place, very comfortable and a great location.

Would definitely recommend. Very generous welcome pack. The Inn on the Tay, 10 minutes walk, is a great pub with excellent food.

Fantastic cottage in a brilliant location.

Very kind attentive hosts. The cottage had everything that we needed and very cosy. Definitely recommend staying here.

I cannot praise Roxanne and Atoll enough or write enough to praise Puccini cottage.

Our stay was absolutely enchanting, restorative, serene, welcoming, restful, wonderful, cozy, delightful, charming, comforting -- just wonderful and exactly what we needed. Roxanne and Atoll went out of their way to ensure we felt welcome. We cannot express just how touched we felt by their attentions. The cottage is impeccably appointed, tidy, and there is a very generous welcome package upon arrival. They are both everything that personifies everything that is wonderful about Scottish people and that wonderous country that is Scotland! We will never forget just how welcome we were made to feel!! Thank you truly from the bottom of our heart!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed our break at Puccini.

Lovely well appointed cottage. Lovely decor and very clean. Ideal safe enclosed garden which was perfect for us and our dog. Lovely touch with a food hamper supplied on our arrival with great produce. The family are very friendly and welcoming. This is an ideal place to stay to explore such a beautiful part of Scotland. There is a golf course on the doorstep which allowed and is ideal for walking the dog. 2 lovely Inns a few minutes walk away over the Tay. Would definitely return to this cottage again.

The sofa’s were very uncomfortable and worn.

Curtains in bedroom needing replaced. All other details in cottage very good

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Puccini Cottage, The cottage is a stylish conversion of a former outbuilding.

It has a lovely walk- in rain shower plus a further bathroom upstairs. A modern kitchen is well equipped with all you need to cook while you're on your holidays. Prior to our arrival I was a little concerned about several negative reviews but I need not have worried. I can only conclude there are some very sad individuals who spend their lives looking for problems and finding things to moan about. I think such individuals lack the imagination to rejoice in the stunning location, the beautiful verdant lush greenery, peace and quiet and a whole host of places to visit, both near and far. (we personally are not troubled by a few nettles)! We were most appreciative of the more than generous grocery box, probably the best welcome pack we have received since staying in holiday cottages. This contained very many goodies including the most delicious cheese scone I have ever tasted! Thank you so much for your kind generosity! We would highly recommend staying at Puccini, for the charming accommodation, the location and the close proximity to so many places of interest.

It was a nice cottage and very central for exploring But the cottage does require some updating and T L C And a hoover would be good to keep it tidy Also the patio needs to be tidied and weeded

Third year we have stayed and love every minute.

It is just the perfect cottage by which we judge all others.

We had a lovely stay at Puccini.

It was warm and cosy & we loved the hamper left for us. The area was beautiful to explore plenty of walks up waterfalls, along rivers & to lochs. Toilet seat upstairs needs repairing as mentioned by other guests.

Loved the area, lovely walks and countryside side.

Aberfeldy a nice wee town, great cinema. Cottage was lovely

Wonderful warm comfortable all including the dog enjoyed the stay Highly recommended

Cosy and comfortable cottage in a beautiful, peaceful location.

Minor niggles reducing rating from 5 stars to 4 relate to some kitchen items not being fully cleaned before our arrival. Despite this we would definitely return to Puccini to explore more of this stunning part of Scotland, knowing that we'd have such a lovely base for a holiday.

Great accommodation, perfect for the four of us located in a great position close to local amenities.

No information of how to operate cooker and microwave Had to ask where to find the heating controls Only three wine glasses (this has been reported before) Need curtain at front door as opposite bathroom

Lovely welcome pack, we enjoyed our stay at Puccini, but we were a bit disappointed in some of the details, garden area (grass not cut, boundary full of nettles).

" Unfortunately the cleanliness was not as good as it might have been. Very little information in cottage folder apart from what not to do, says washing machine not in cottage or any explanation. Overall lack of attention to detail, tired and a bit more of a good clean required. Be aware the owners house is in the same courtyard as the cottage, dogs run freely and evidence of dog dirt regularly in the car parking area.

A lovely clean cottage in a quiet location.

Great amenities and the best welcome pack we've ever had! Puccini is in a good location with 2 restaurants within 5 minutes walk. A nice garden for our dog too.

We had a lovely stay at Puccini Cottage.

Excellent welcome pack and lovely owners. Cottage was cosy and lawned garden was ideal for us and our labrador. Strathtyre is beautiful and we saw lots of wildlife especially red squirrels and rabbits. Lots to do and see in the area.

Just brilliant the perfect place to stay.

We were made so welcome by Athol and the whole family, nothing is too much trouble for them. This was our second visit and we will be back

The accommodation was excellent and the location perfect .

We had a fabulous time and couldn’t have expected any more . We intend to go back later in the year - that says it all really

Comfortable cottage, bed comfortable,excellent shower room,SKY TV a bonus.

Kitchen utensils and cutlery adequate BUT on a minus side only two glass wine glasses, but plenty PLASTIC ones.!!. Unfortunately the negatives, the patio area is seriously neglected,needs weeded,grass needed mown and not just strimmed as occurred. Garden furniture desperately needed to be cleaned and maintained. Be aware the owners house is in the same courtyard as the cottage, dogs run freely and evidence of dog dirt regularly in the car parking area. We maybe should have brought this to owners attention but the family were dealing with a close relatives illness. Young spaniel,Logie, needs to be watched carefully as he has a tendency to be unpredictable.

A lovely clean, nicely positioned cottage tucked away so quiet but only a very short straightforward drive onto the main road for Aberfeldy, the closest sizeable town.

Walkable to a couple of nice restaurants. A couple of your own outside areas to make the most of the sun as it moves round. A good welcome pack that would tie you over if you arrived late and hadn't shopped. Secure parking on site just a few meters from the 2 cottages.

We enjoyed our stay and the cottage was nice and bright, clean and had good facilities.

Owner was friendly and helpful. Locked shed at the side was handy for bikes, and the enclosed garden really useful for the dog. Having all the Sky channels was a bonus. Suggested improvements would be to replace or clean the kettle as it had a lot of scale build-up. Also the WiFi was a bit slow but worked most of the time. One of the seats on one sofa was a bit soft/saggy.

Very good cottage with all the amenities required for a very comfortable stay.

Plenty of visitor attractions nearby. The autumn colours of the trees capped an excellent Scottish holiday experience.

Great location to explore the area.

Cottage was very comfortable & the owners were there if we needed anything.

Excellent property; well equipped and the welcome pack a real bonus.

Thank you

We enjoyed our stay at the Puccini Cottage, lots of great extras like the welcome pack of food etc, sky TV, Bath robes.

Owners were very welcoming and helpful, Nice garden and pet friendly, would go back. For a small village there are 2 good restaurants, a shop, and a small golf course and a great river location. There are some nice walks nearby and plenty of places to visit within a short driving distance.

We had a really lovely 3 days, the cottage was very comfortable, very dog friendly with a private garden - the family where also really delightful - would highly recommend

We loved it here the house was comfortable, the owners couldn't have been nicer or kinder.

The area is beautiful and really accessible to a lot of places. The free golf was a bonus lovely well kept greens. We felt quite sad leaving. Hope to come back again x

Amazing cottage, perfect for a dog as there is an enclosed garden.

Lovely owners who provided the best welcome pack we had ever been given. Perfectly warm and cosy in the winter!

The cottage was lovely and in a very nice setting.

We were disappointed in the lack of care taken with the cleaning. Cobwebs, dog biscuit on the floor, inside windows had dog smears, all the curtain poles need repairing and a few more problems. We spoke with the owner and he was very shocked so hopefully it will be sorted for the next visitors. This is a lovely cottage with a high specification and a very interesting owner who is nice to chat to about his life. We had to leave early due to ill health but hope to return to the area soon.

A perfect 4 night stay at Puccini Cottage!

So cosy and warm, especially with the fire blazing in the evening. The welcome pack was the best ever! Lovely walks straight from the door and up the hill. We’d love to come back again soon!

We enjoyed tremendous our stay at Puccini cottage, the cottage is very lovely and excellently equipped with everything you could need.

The gift basket that the Still family provide you with is excellent. The cottage is lovely and warm even in November and we didn't even have to use the burner. Thanks to all the Still family for making us feel so welcome and at home.

As a group of four retired adults we found the experience staying in Puccini cottage very relaxing, we had everything we could ever need for our 7 night stay.

The owner "Roxane" introduced herself on our arrival with a warm cheery smile and then, a wee welcoming blether which was nice. The accommodation is modern with that little country feel which we all adore. The garden at the property leading down to the river was beautiful and the surrounding area is to die for, with it`s walks and views. The mature trees surrounding the property are amazingly beautiful with their red berries and holly. How appropriate at this time of year. Thank you to Roxane and Atholl for making our stay so enjoyable. we will certainly consider coming back again. Mary and Jim Cunningham from Fife, and Mr Mrs Hughan from Glasgow.

A beautiful cottage with excellent hosts where nothing is too much trouble.

Highly recommended.

Puccini is one of the very best holiday cottages we have stayed in.

The cottage is in a superb location set in beautiful gardens, close to the river. We had many birds, rabbits and even red squirrels in the garden. The owners are extremely helpful, friendly but not intrusive, nothing is too much trouble. The cottage is really well equipped and the welcome pack exceeds all expectations. The area is beautiful and really convenient for sightseeing. The local shop and pub are just a short walk away.

We loved the place.

It was a brilliant location the local walk with the waterfall is fantastic and our dog Daisy loved the place completely. The Inn on the Tay was also excellent and I would recommend everyone tries it. But be prepared to book as it’s so popular. The Chocolatier is also worth a visit. Lovely cottage, well equipped in a beautiful location. The owners were very nice and helpful to us during our stay. The basket of treats are very good and appreciated. Sky TV was also a nice bonus. Will definitely return. Scott & Dawn Falconer.

We initially struggled to find the cottage but when we did it was delightful.

The kitchen was well equipped with everything you might need and the welcome hamper was epic, consisting of high quality local produce. The beds were comfortable and at night the only sound was the river running. The sky package was a bonus and the shower pressure was excellent. We loved the area and will be returning for sure. Many thanks to Roxanne, the owner, for all her suggestions about where to go, we loved the local area and didn't see any midges!

The cottage was perfect and in a central location for exploring the area.

The welcome pack was great and hosts were brilliant. We will consider booking again.

Cosy and clean with everything you could possibly need.

The welcome pack was fantastic and the hosts were friendly and welcoming. Cottage is situated in such a great area to explore from. Would definitely return.

The location of this cottage to start off is amazing, there is no shortage of walks, the nearby town was lovely.

We really wanted to love it here, but we really wouldn’t return in all honesty. To start with, upon booking the only request in regards to a dog is ‘well behaved’, I personally think this is really subjective, our dog is perfectly well behaved to our standards, but for this cottage upon arrival we realised it was quite extreme. Our dog usually sleeps with us in our room, is allowed on our couch as we treat her entirely as part of our family, I wouldn’t say that’s badly behaved at all, but the request for absolutely no dogs upstairs or on any furniture was found upon our arrival in the file you’re given detailing facilities in the house, our dog was expected to stay in the kitchen overnight which we found impossible given we’ve never made her do that before, we’ve been on several dog friendly holidays in the UK and we’ve never came across such ridiculous unrealistic rules, you may as well not have it be dog friendly, the only good aspect for our dog was a large private back garden. I’d recommend instead of something as subjective as ‘well behaved dogs’ advertised, perhaps list all your rules as many people will not be able to facilitate your requirements. The gift basket provided, while appreciated, was not at all good, our milk was completely off and had curdled before we’d even arrived, the bacon had its expiry date what looked like torn off, so we didn’t risk eating that. The jam, had green mold all over the top of it, so if that’s the standard, I really wouldn’t bother doing it in the future for guests, unless maybe we were unlucky and got that as a one off. No one had informed us, but our water and heating was all completely switches off, to my surprise when I went to shower in freezing cold water. My partner had to turn all of this back on by the mains switches, and it took a full day for it to take effect, not exactly what you want after a six hour commute. There were stains on carpets upstairs in various places in one of the bedrooms. Positive points however are the kitchen was the best equipped kitchen I’d encountered, the log burner was lovely on a night time, you have full access to all sky channels which is handy when winding down on the night time. this was a last minute booking, but for the money we paid we expected a little bit better, so we won’t return unfortunately.

A beautiful, comfortable and well equipped dog friendly cottage - the perfect base from which to explore this beautiful part of the UK!

Hosts we're friendly and helpful. Loads of things to do and places to explore. Will be returning for sure.

Comfortable well equipped cottage in great location.
