It was very comfortable and well equipped. Welcome pack from host was great. Hosts were on hand and offered help with our shopping on a very snowy day which was really nice. Looking forward to returning and would highly recommend.

"We have been coming to Scotland with our kids for the last 10 years since they were babies and The Lodge is by far the best equipped place we have ever stayed at."
It was clean, tidy and very comfortable with little things like towels being provided making life so much simpler, the treats on arrival were amazing and after a 400 mile trip to the Lodge a welcome surprise, Blairgowrie is a short drive away which gives you all the shops you will need along with some lovely restaurants, Dunkeld is 15 minutes in the opposite direction providing some lovely walks and further access to the highlands.
We would not hesitate to go back to The Lodge and cannot praise it highly enough.

"We had a lovely week exploring Perthshire from The Lodge."
Best cottage we have stayed in, very clean and comfortable, very well-equipped, lovely views and the welcome goodies (including fresh baked scones and local jam/strawberries) on arrival were much appreciated. Lots to do in the area and a nice quiet lane behind the Lodge which made a good evening dog walk. This wonderful accommodation helped make it a very relaxing and hassle free week - we will be back!!

"What a fabulous Lodge, in a superb location!"
The view from the veranda is breathtaking and the visiting wildlife provide the icing on the cake.
Spotted Woodpeckers taking food from the feeders and feeding it to their youngsters, in full view, plus a red squirrel putting on a 30 minute show of fun and dexterity.
The welcome gifts were fantastic - especially the local honey, bread and strawberries.
Lodge was very comfortable, had everything we needed and was a perfect base for exploring the area.
Thank you so very much.

"Whole hearted agreement with previous comments."
This is a lovely holiday home. No complaints . Any comment is therefore on a personal basis of what suits our needs, not the accomodtion. ie. lovely outlook as promised but did not know it was off a busy road A93 so always heard traffic, and also did not know it was on owners garden with large house being built beside it.Therefore more hemmed in than we would normally go for. Early morning dog walks an issue because of road. It would be good if Sykes said "off lead walks in area accesible by car only"
Owners lovely people and we hope all goes well for them..
The Lodge os off the A923,as stated in the directions given to find it. the A93 is a lot busier. Also it is stated that the garden is not enclosed. The Lodge is in the countryside with livestock surrounding it.

Spotlessly clean on arrival with both the log burner (plenty logs supplied to keep us going for weekend) and heating already on for us. Welcome pack was a nice touch and provided fresh scones, jam, honey, butter, eggs, milk, bread and prossecco....other lodge providers should take note! Spacious and very well equipped. Lovely views from the decking and we were blessed with red squirrels visiting the feeders each day. Thoroughly recommend this lodge.

"The Lodge was better than we hoped, not just the comfort and general high standards, the veranda and the views, but the wonderfully generous host who was helpful and relaxed but also respected our privacy."
We are experienced users of holiday accommodation but have never experienced such generosity. Endless logs, Prosecco, plentiful supply of all the basics and some. The only observation I would make and it is not a criticism, is that the kitchen and dining area in an otherwise spacious layout would feel a little cramped if 6 people were staying.

"We really enyoyed our stay at the Lodge, it was a lovely property an fully met our expectations."
The level access into the property was great for my father because he has problems negotiating steps. It was a great layout with the kitchen and adjacent living area in open plan. The kitchen had all the equipment we needed and more. All very comfortable and cosy. The view was splendid - we enjoyed watching the sunsets and distant hills. Bedrooms were also comfortable - me and my other half had the bedroom with the ensuite and he really appreciated the great shower. Blairgowrie is an ideal base for exploring the surrounding area - the road up to Dunkeld is very pretty. We appreciated the edible gifts left by the owner - scones, biscuits, butter, milk, honey, jam and even prosecco - very generous compared to other places we have stayed - it made the stay extra special. We usually look for a place with local shops and walks however the quality of the property and its beautiful view made up for that easily.

The lodge has been equipped with everything needed for a holiday. Sat out or in the views are stunning, very peaceful. We had red squirrels visiting the garden along with numerous birds.
A perfect location for a peaceful holiday but close enough to Perth, Dunkeld, Pitlochry etc for visits. We could quite easily move in and make this home!
The welcome items were very much appreciated.
We will definitely be returning next year. Thank you Gary and Kate for a super holiday.

"What an absolute gem of a place!"
Beautiful, spacious, high spec property. Everything you could need. Fabulous decked veranda leading onto a large open garden with the most spectacular views across the valley and amazing sunsets. We were so lucky with the weather and were able to access some great days out. Loch Clunie is great for paddle boarding and other water activities and only 5 mins from the lodge. Blairgowrie is a good base with easy to access amenities and we also had some great days out at Ballater Highland Games, Dunkeld and Braemar amongst others. We were welcomed by the owners with freshly made scones, butter, home made jam and a bottle of prosecco as well as milk, eggs, fresh bread and strawberries! Amazing to find these on arrival. Would highly recommend this holiday lodge to anyone thinking of holidaying in this part of Scotland!

"Beautiful lodge, fabulous condition with high quality furnishings and fittings."
Owners (live next door) provided a lovely array of goodies for our arrival which was very much appreciated. The lodge overlooks open fields and has a decking area with plenty of outdoor furniture. Shops are less than a five minute drive away. We found out the day before travelling that there was no Wi-Fi available. We wouldn’t have chosen to book any accommodation without Wi-Fi but managed to make do as we were out and about each day. Last thing to add is that whilst a dog is allowed to stay and a towel, water bowl and treats were kindly provided, there are (understandably) restrictions due to the pristine condition of the lodge. We watched our young Labrador like a hawk but we were nervous! Overall, beautiful accommodation with just about everything you’d need (Wi-Fi to come) and the owners are lovely.
