Hi Bea and team. We had a wonderful time in Blair Atholl, enjoying walks along the riverbanks and the surrounding countryside. The hospitality we received in the village was first class and The Bank was the perfect place to stay - comfortable, cosy and well equipped. Many thanks

We had a fabulous week at Auld Smiddy Cottage. It was in a lovely spot and was really comfortable.

Our 4th visit to this peaceful, private, picturesque cottage, loved every minute again. Enjoyed cosy burner at night. Will miss our haven. Until next time.
