About this property

Dunkeld 6 miles. A shooting lodge of the Duke of Atholl, this marvellous property occupies a spectacular hillside position in Butterstone, with open views over rural Perthshire, and offers everything for the outdoor sports enthusiast. Built in the late 19th century, this Dunkeld holiday cottage combines the ideal location with a vast range of activities on offer locally. The area is a paradise for walkers, with fantastic scenery from the doorstep, and a rich variety of wildlife. This Dunkeld holiday home also provides easy access to 29 golf courses across Perthshire, often generally quiet even in summer, to challenge beginners and experts alike. Some of the most excellent shooting and stalking can be arranged via the owner, or spend time by the private loch on the moor. Boasting eight bedrooms, all either double or twin, this Dunkeld holiday home offers the ideal base for exploring this beautiful region. With a fully equipped kitchen allowing catering for 16 guests and a separate dining room which provides stylish entertaining, this Dunkeld holiday home also contains a spacious sitting room with an open fire looking out over glorious Perthshire scenery. There is a lawned garden at this Dunkeld shooting lodge, where you can sit and relax with a refreshing dram after a day in the spectacular countryside. For the thrill-seekers in the party, why not book an off road driving session at the Land Rover Scotland Experience, just 1.5 miles from the cottage? The towns of Dunkeld (6 miles), Blairgowrie (10 miles), Pitlochry (17 miles) and Perth (18 miles) are well worth a visit, as is the dramatic Loch Tay with excellent walking on the surrounding hills. A wonderful Scottish holiday home, with absolutely everything that you could wish for from an outdoor pursuits holiday.

Dunkeld dates from the 9th century and boasts a wealth of history from the Dark and Middle Ages as well as a range of shops and bars.
