The perfect location for anyone wanting to get away from it all. The cottage which has everything you could need - log burner, roll top bath, 4 poster bed and TV all in the one room with separate kitchen/diner and utility. Enclosed gardens which kept it safe for our 2 dogs, leading straight out into the woods made for lovely early morning and late afternoon walks. Remote yet not too far away from a variety of places of interest - Glen Lyon, Aberfeldy, Pitlochry, Tummel - lots to see. Stunning scenery and the best of places to enjoy birds, squirrels and deer from the cottage window. Stunnin...more
The property is old and would benefit from some improvements. In particular, the windows and doors. This however, does not detract from the pure pleasure of the isolation and peacefulness this property delivered. We left on our final day feeling very sad that we wouldn't be awakening to the beautiful surroundings the following morning.
Cosy autumnal stay in beautiful location. The cottage is well equipped but could do with some updating. We had a speedy response when we lost some power during Storm Amy. Thank you to Rose for this.
It’s all about the location. Many holiday lets are now very high end specification, East Lodge is comfy and characterful. Spend the day by the river or out walking, with or without dogs, kick your boots and wellies off and curl up in front of of the fire. The kitchen has everything you need and a large dining table great for leisurely meals or card games.
The furnishings are simple but cosy. The kitchen is well equiped for prepairing meals. we enjoyed the wood-burning stove in the evenings and there was plenty of wood availabelto keep the fire going.
The usual high standards and attention to detail. We had a great relaxing week and are looking forward to our next visit in the new year.
This is the fourth time we have stayed in a Dunalistair cottage and this one didn’t disappoint. When we arrived storm Amy had taken out the power luckily we have an EV 9 and with the help of an extension lead we powered the cottage. Rose kindly loaned there family cottage for showers and cooking. The wood burning stove and a continuous supply of logs made the cottage very cosy. Stanley our English Setter enjoyed the freedom to roam in the very secure garden. We also loved waking up in the morning to the beautiful sunrises through the mist over Schiehallion
Absolutely loved staying here, so did my golden retriever, who made friends with the local young bulls over the fence! Garden is secure so I could relax which is a must for dog owners. Location is perfect for local exploration or going further afield. Very home from home feel and would definitely stay here again. Lovely and warm in the evening, kitchen has everything you need. Only niggle was the water pressure which was super low in the shower only, I could barely get the shower to wash off shampoo, but I’m sure that can be fixed easily enough. Water pressure was much better from the taps so ...more
A very lovely little house in the middle of no-where, surrounded by birds, bracken, wood and a beautiful view to the hills. We felt welcomed and loved the environment and the atmosphere. We would come back anytime.
