Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Rattray

The house is in the most beautiful setting with fabulous walks literally outside the back door. The house itself is great, the pictures don't do it justice. Its very spacious, plenty of room, our daughter, partner and the grandchildren where with us as well as our two dogs. Both pubs at Scone (10 min drive) are good for food, Dundee and Perth are within a half hour drive. The surroundings are just exceptional with great walks close by.

Great house and great location. Everything we wanted and needed was there. lovely situation. And we got in earlier than the 5pm which made it easier since we were coming from different directions. if I was to make any criticism it would be that getting us all out by 10am was a bit tight, given we had the beds to strip.

The Shiel House was an absolutely stunning and massive property. We visited as a large group of 8 on a golf trip, and this was the perfect Airbnb. It was beyond spacious, with all the amenities a large group would need for a week long stay. The location was great for us with popular golfing destinations like St Andrews and Gleneagles within driving distance, as well as a litany of local courses. We also were within driving distance of Edinburgh with plenty of fine dining options. Tim was a very gracious and helpful host who provided clear instructions on locating the property, as well as a fun treasure hunt that takes you around the property and to local spots. Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the property and the host!!

We had the most amazing time at this house, we are four friends on a weekend break and this was absolutely perfect, house had everything we needed, plenty of space, we spent most of our time outside as weather was fantastic, lorna and moira were lovely , we will definitely be back, thank you for letting us share your amazing let.

I have no word that truly captures this place. It is centrally located for folks who want to explore the highlands, lowlands and anywhere in between. The home was SO cozy and Maggie welcomed us like family, sharing her local knowledge of the best places to visit, great scenic routes to get there, and absolutely THE best restaurants around. The home had comfy bedding, a cozy living room complete with wood burning stove for those chilly nights, and a oversized tub to soak away the day. Maggie even had milk and orange juice in the refrigerator waiting for our coffee and tea. The scenery is second to none, surrounded by picturesque hills and a view of the Loch. I could stay here forever.

We had a beautiful stay here. The house is perfect, had everything we needed. We loved the kitchen space and living space, felt so cosy and at home there. Our hosts were so generous with us, making our recent engagement even more special - thank you again! Lots of recommendations for walks and places to eat which was great. We were right in the countryside with nature at its finest…deer in the garden, horses trotting along the path, sheep and chickens nearby, it was so calming! Couldn’t have asked for anything more, 10/10 definitely recommend.

What stunning views and such a tranquil location. Loved our stay and hosts were so accommodating when we were a little late and they opened up for our grocery delivery driver! We are a family of four with a dog and loved using the enclosed garden, bbq and fire pit. Beds are comfortable and showers are super. Even the sofa bed is great! Would stay again. Many thanks to Jane!

Rock Cottage was a great ‘study camp’ for my daughter in the run-up to her exams. The house was immaculate and very much a home from home. The beds were very comfortable. The highlight, though, is outdoors - the wild garden is enchanting and full of bird life - we loved sitting in the sun room watching the swallows outside, followed by the bats at dusk. It’s in a very peaceful location but only a short drive to Kenmore or Aberfeldy for shops and restaurants. We’d love to be back!

We had another highly enjoyable weekend at Swallows Nest, our 2nd short stay at this very peaceful and comfortable property. A home from home, in very beautiful and special surroundings. Already arranging our 3rd visit … :) Highly recommend for a family or couple. Thank you both!

Liz was an excellent host! She was very responsive to every inquiry. The flat was beautifully decorated and matches the photos and description. It is well cared for and very clean. The location was perfect, easy to golf, to shops and restaurants. I honestly can't think of a complaint.

I've stayed here several times. the accommodation is spotlessly clean, has everything you need and is in a quiet residential street with parking outside. it is a 5 minute drive from the lovely town of Broughty Ferry or about 15 minutes from Dundee centre. Allan and Lucy are friendly, responsive hosts. Highly recommended.

We were very comfortable at Earl and Helen's apartment. It's a terrific space with a great bed, loads of room, and everything you would need. We especially appreciated the washer and dryer and well appointed kitchen. Situated close to several bus lines, it is easy to navigate around Dundee. Great value, clean, safe and quiet, it is everything you could hope for!

Very well located near to the Fife Coastal path. A little on the small side but we enjoyed our stay very much. Jackie and her partner were generous and kind and made us feel very welcome. The road was quiet and we slept very well. A short drive away was a fabulous farm shop and there were 2 fishmongers at the end of the road…We enjoyed cooking local produce in the well equipped kitchen.

Second time we have stayed here. It's just perfect. Apart from being about 30 seconds from the beach, there was everything we needed. Despite being close to the beach and a play park it was really quiet when you were indoors Great walks up to Monifieth most days. Five minutes from the station and then seven minutes in to Dundee. Dawn was at the end of the phone or a text if we needed anything. We will definitely be back

We had an incredibly beautiful and relaxing time at Karen's place in the very idyllic place Burntisland. Actually, we wanted to stay directly in Edinburgh, which we couldn't afford. When we arrived in Burntisland, we were extremely positively surprised and quickly fell in love with the small place. In the end, we even found it better there than in Edinburgh. Not only is the city very convenient to reach by train within 40 minutes, the trains also run very regularly. The place itself is small but nice. All necessary shops, smaller food stalls, cafes or restaurants are available. However, we enjoyed the varied nature the most. You are right by the sea, behind you has the forest, a beautiful hillside, whose views are definitely worth climbing. The Fife Coastal Path runs through several such small places along the coast and the section around Burntisland is simply fantastic. Highly recommended!

We stayed the last four nights of our stay in Scotland at Lorne and Frank’s place and it was a great way to finish off our trip. Their home was absolutely gorgeous and they were great hosts. The one thing that my wife and I commented on over and over again was how comfy the bed was. We loved our stay in Stockbridge which is such a lovely and vibrant neighbourhood and this unit was such a great home base for all our adventurers. There are lots of pubs, restaurants and shopping nearby and city centre is very walkable from this location. There are also lots of bus stops you can walk to quickly to get you to just about anywhere you want to go.

Great location, was ideal for us climbing munros. Had great views from the house. Was also very spacious.

It was a wonderful place to stay with great scenic views and a peaceful atmosphere . The hosts Alexandra and David were such great people which made the stay even more pleasant. Would definitely stay here again.

Very comfortable house right in the heart of Newtonmore - was a perfect location for a family winter break. Lots of space with 2 lounges and generously sized bedrooms. Really well equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen in particular plus lots of games and books for the wet days (there were a few!). Off-street parking, nearby co-op shop and responsive hosts made for a stress free and enjoyable stay. We hope to be back!

What an amazing house and location. We have had a magical Christmas with everything we needed; walks, tennis, piano. The layout of the house and expansive living space suited us very well. The dog was as thrilled as her humans. The kitchen/dining room/glassware/crockery/cutlery are genuinely set up for a huge number which makes catering so much easier. As long as you don’t mind a short walk, Banchory is accessible by foot- you need a head torch in Winter! Definitely on the repeat list!

I can’t say enough about this place and how lovely Ian and Flo were in being such great hosts. Not only was the house fantastic but they were so kind and helpful… It was like staying with good friends.!

This is a lovely house with beautiful views in a fantastic location! We got very lucky with sunny weather during our stay meaning we could make the most of the gorgeous surroundings - we did white water rafting on the River Tay and enjoyed the Taymouth Marina spa, all of which were a short drive away from the house. The house was just as described and pictured and the hosts were great - they were very responsive and flexible, allowing us to have both an early checkin and late check out. There is a good amount of parking at the property and the kitchen was well stocked with all amenities you could need. The house is on a main road but it is not busy and traffic noise was not an issue. I would definitely recommend this house to a group.

Entering this well appointed, beautiful home, there is a feeling of warmth and relaxation. The skylights bring in the natural light to the bathrooms. The Kitchen is modern and sleek, with everything you need to make a first class meal. The visually stunning, spacious backyard has a wonderful garden. There is a park just behind the house. My daily jog would lead me down to the beach. Here i would do a quick cold plunge- rejuvenating my body. The area is surrounded by a world renowned collection of golf clubs. The Longniddry golf club is a short walk and is a fun track. Thank you for being great hosts.

Amazing time ! We loved this place , such nice people Derek and Suzanna I hope we see you again xx
