It was our 2nd visit, but our first in Cow shed 2. And we loved it!! Warm, comfortable, welcoming, relaxing... everything we needed. The best bits - The warm welcome from Kirsty and Steve. The fact every detail is thought through. The peace and quiet- best sleep in months.

Very clean and comfortable house with an interesting history. . well equipped and nicely decorated. 2 bathrooms, one with an over- the- bath shower, the other with a walk-in shower. Dishwasher and washing machine. Nice outside space with picnic bench and a wee burn at the end of the garden. . 1 mile up the hill from Pitlochry town with easy parking just over the road in the local square. Food available in the pub next door.

The Denton family have enjoyed another holiday at Ruggles. The cottage is beautifully equipped. We enjoy the lovely garden and the walks from the cottage. I’m sure we will return next year. The family play golf at St Fillans We enjoy eating at Crieff Golf Club in the evenings. We made a visit to Cultybraggan Camp near Comrie.
