"Our stay at this house was simply amazing."
The owner and his family are absolutly lovely, they have a huge garden, which you can go in at any time, lots of land to explore and the old house is taken care of with love and passion. The location is in the heart of scotland and therefore perfect to explore the country, go for long walks with an amazing view over city and landscape or just hang out in the cozy flat and read a book with a cup of tea. Overall you get so much comfort for such a low prize, we will definitly come back. Thanks a lot for everything :)

"The location of the flat was excellent for the travelling North that we intended to do each day as everywhere that we wanted to visit was within 1 - 1."
5 hours drive away - Scone Palace virtually on your doorstep, The Hermitage at Dunkeld -30 mins, Glamis Castle just over an hour, Braemar Castle 1.5 hours and The Scottish Crannog Centre at Aberfeldy 1.5 hours
The flat was very clean and had all the facilities that we required - and then some The central heating and hot water system being very efficient although the week we were there in September was exceptionally warm with the temperatures in the 20s all week
Only extremely small gripe was that the mattresses were too soft for us initially but we soon got used to them and had a few unintentional "long lies"
The grounds were well kept and were perfect for our daughter's dog as they stayed with us for a couple of nights at the start
The town centre is easily accessible either by car in two directions or on foot via a beautiful path and woodland walk for about 1.5 miles and has a Co-op, pubs and a fish and chip shop
All in all we had a very pleasurable stay and we would certainly recommend this property

"Lovely gem of a place in beautiful surroundings."
A perfect base being so close to local amenities but set back in the countryside. Restful & great for relaxing. The owners were really helpful and the garden & tennis court a lovely bonus. We will be back!

"Just spent a lovely week at Stable flat."
Would highly recommend it. Dog friendly. The gardens are beautiful as was the Pinetum. Owners very accommodating.
Suggestion would be to have some paper information on local attractions. Also recommendation for places to eat. But we asked and got couple recommendations.
It was the best Sykes accommodation we have stayed at to date.
We wish the family all the best for their up coming care project.

"Lovely stable flat in wonderful grounds."
Owner was there if we needed anything. My only moan would be that it said there was a DVD player and there wasn’t. This would have been useful due to very poor tv reception. We did manage to get our own Google chrome set up to their Wi-Fi which was very good. The weather was particularly good. So managed to get out and sbout

"Absolutely perfect property."
Much nicer and bigger than the photos make out. The beds are comfy and pretty much everything you can think of is provided. Cleanliness was really good too.
The owners were lovely, not intrusive but there should you need them. They even provided sledges for our children when it snowed!
The WIFI worked well, handy for teenagers. Amazing surroundings with excellent walks. Great for wildlife. Super quiet at night. The flat was lovely and warm as well.
We are already planning on coming back.

"Comfortable, clean flat just on the outskirts of Perth."
Great base for exploring the area. Owner Stephen was on hand and very helpful. Lovely grounds. Access would be a little difficult for those not confident on stairs.
I agree the stairs could be a challenge if you are not steady on your feet. We try to keep them swept and in the winter we salt them to make sure they are not icy.

"I think the photos and description on Sykes' website don't do this place justice."
The apartment is set within the extensive grounds of a beautiful house and if you are a nature and animal lover it is the perfect place for a holiday. We absolutely loved visiting the horses in the stables right next to the apartment and the two gorgeous alpacas. We also had walks through the gardens up to the pinetum. The apartment itself was extremely clean, cosy and comfortable and very well equipped. If you are looking for a base to explore magnificent Perthshire I cannot recommend The Stables highly enough.

There is also a tennis court too if you like your sport . The owner was very nice & made sure we had everything & knew how everything worked , always very friendly . So close to Perth , Scone , Dundee , Tillicoultry & Stirling and loads of others too we just never had the time !! The only worry for me was my mum is 75 and still reasonably fit but the stairs up to the flat where for her a wee bit difficult . I’ll defiantly be returning would love to see it in summer .
