From the owner

Private access to apartment within family home but separate from main house, ideally situated within the heart of Perthshire. Comprises of double bedroom (king or twin beds), private sitting room with open fire, Freeview TV, DVD, kitchen and bathroom with bath and shower.

Kitchen comprises of microwave oven with in-built grill and conventional oven facilities with one counter top hob plate. There is toaster, kettle, fridge and dining space for two within the kitchen. There is NO DISH WASHING OR LAUNDRY FACILITIES (only hand washing facilities) and so would probably better suit shorter length stays.

Situated within the village of Birnam which sits beside the River Tay, half a mile off the A9, thirteen miles north of Perth and near the picturesque village of Dunkeld. It is five minutes walk from the train station servicing the main line north to Inverness (and trains do stop in the village), which gives ease of travel both north to Inverness and south to Perth and on to Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and the main route down to London. Trains from Inverness to London stop at Dunkeld & Birnam station. Citylink and Stagecoach buses stop nearby for services both locally and major cities.

Local attractions are many: the Birnam Arts Centre holds exhibitions, conferences and has many arts and crafts workshops, plus an excellent cafe and library, the famous Taybank Hotel which has live music, the Dunkeld Hilton with its health club and Dunkeld Cathedral and the Loch of the Lowes Visitor Centre and Wildlife Reserve, along with Blair Atholl Castle which holds the Blair Atholl horse trials, Pitlochry Theatre, Loch Tay and many more tourist attractions within a short driving distance. It is about three-quarters of an hour's drive to the famous Golf Open at Gleneagles too! Situated right in the centre of Scotland with the A9 motorway at hand and great public transport it couldn't be a better choice of location for a holiday.

The area is ideal for walkers, fishers, wildlife enthusiasts, art and music lovers, hill climbers and for those visitors just simply wanting a relaxing holiday in arguably the most beautiful part of Scotland.
