About this property

27 Strathtay Lodges is a wonderful two storey property with a magnificent view across the river and over to Strathtay, set just outside the popular tourist town of Aberfeldy. It is the perfect base for families soaking up the rural tranquillity and getting out and about amongst the great outdoors. Step inside the welcoming open-plan kitchen and living area, making it a real social hub of the property amidst comfortable living. Prepare supper in the well-equipped kitchen and when it's time to serve, bring the dinner party natter over to the dining table and toast to an unforgettable holiday. For those warmer summer evenings, step out onto the private front decking area and admire the views over a glass of wine, the perfect spot to relax and unwind. When the stars begin to appear overhead, retreat to one of three lovely bedrooms; a king, a twin and a single bedroom, offering flexible sleeping arrangements for the group, all boasting warm night lights and views to the infinite countryside, making it a real haven for catching your rest. In the morning, have a soak in the large family bathroom and complete your morning routine, before you discover the local area. Head out into the nearby town of Aberfeldy to discover all your nearest amenities, boasting an array of independent pubs, restaurants and coffee shops to cater to every pallet. Next door to the lodge park you will discover Dewars Distillery where you can see how the local whisky is made and sample a wee dram. The Birks Cinema in the town is a great evening out, showing blockbuster movies as well as local productions and often hosts live music events during the summer months. Walk the famous Birks of Aberfeldy, and take in the waterfalls and picture-postcard trails. Over the road from the lodge park is Beyond Adventure for the daring guest, where you can hire a bike, experience white water rafting, or hire a kayak to paddle down the River Tay. Explore the village of Kenmore, where you will find the head of Loch Tay with its pebble beach and opportunities to paddle, swim, hire a paddle board or motorboat and explore the wild open water for a sun-soaked day. Further afar, history lovers and photographers alike may discover Castle Menzies, a spectacular 16th century castle. If you wish to explore by car, take the Highland Safari and get up close to the Red Deer and other native species. If you are feeling energetic, bag a Munroe, Ben Lawers, Beinn Ghlas and Schiehallion are all close by. Allow yourself to be captivated by Aberfeldy, and the surrounding area with all its natural beauty. 27 Strathtay Lodges offers something for everyone, and you are sure of a holiday to remember.

The market town of Aberfeldy stands on the River Tay amidst beautiful scenery in rural Perthshire. Famous for its association with Burns and his poem The Birks Of Aberfeldy, the bridge built for General Wade in 1733 and, more recently, The Hills of Aberfeldy by Ed Sheeran, the town is just south of Glen Lyon, known as the longest, loneliest, and loveliest glen in Scotland. There is much to attract the visitor in addition to the spectacular scenery. For example, a 10 mile riverside walk for pedestrians and cyclists, as well as numerous paths through forest and countryside. Furthermore, Aberfeldy is on the Rob Roy Way and Cycle Route 7. Whitewater rafting on the River Tay is an exhilarating way to enjoy the scenery and zip wiring, quad biking and bungee jumping are available in nearby Killiekrankie. Castle Menzies is a wonderful 16th century castle, now fully restored and open to visitors. Take a distillery tour at Dewar’s World of Whisky on the edge of town. Sample the many bars, restaurants and cafes in the town and explore the galleries and craft shops. Visit The Highland Chocolatier in the nearby village of Grandtully to enjoy world class chocolate created by a local master. The Scottish Crannog Centre offers a glimpse into Iron Age life and Loch Tay offers a multitude of watersports, while Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park are on your doorstep. Within an easy hours drive there are over 30 Munros, just waiting to be 'bagged'!

    Really appreciated things like games and books for kids, helped entertain our 2-year old! It would have been nice to have salt and maybe cooking oil in the kitchen but these were easily purchased in Aberfeldy.

    Everything is very new and very clean. Beds comfortable. The washing machine always comes in dead handy. Very quiet location- above the main road, but there's not many cars travelling in and out of Aberfeldy in the dark. Ten minutes stroll to the village shops and ten minutes walk the other way to the start of a walk up to the forest (I never saw another soul when i took the dog for off lead walks in the forest). We had a great time going to dog friendly cafes and restaurants and a peaceful cycle along cycle route 7 too..
