Customer Reviews of Osprey Cottage near Dunkeld - Sleeps 4

1st comment: This modern barn-conversion, accessed from the rear into the first floor, open-plan living area, provided for all possible needs, even binoculars for viewing the deer on the hill and other wildlife, reference books and files of information leaflets for sightseeing. My purpose was to see the Ospreys at Loch of the Lowes, but I found many other places of interest. The slow trip up the drive was well worth the effort each day,with roe deer often grazing in the surrounding area, and the owners were most helpful, without being intrusive. Yes, I will go back. May 2011.

2nd comment: The cottage had everything we could possibly require for a very comfortable stay. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Jan 2011.
