Our group of 4 adults and 2 children had a great stay in The Auld Smiddy Cottage. The house had everything we needed and was very cozy and comfortable. Really close to the centre of Pitlochry and lots of lovely walks in the area. A perfect place to stay!

Perfection! The Cow Shed is definitely a five-star accommodation with a beautiful pastoral view of mountains and sheep. The cottage itself was immaculate and of very high quality. My husband and I are very picky about cleanliness and peace and quiet, and the Cow Shed was perfect in this regard plus extremely beautiful, comfortable, and cozy. It is a perfect base for spending time in the Perthshire area and for taking longer day trips with the perk of returning to the Cow Shed for a relaxing evening. We were a party of four and rented both Cow Shed and Cow Shed 2 and would return in a heartbeat!

Wonderful stay in this charming bothy. Feels very cosy and had everything you could wish for to make a welcoming comfortable stay. The setting is beautiful, we were surrounded by red deer in the evenings and had great views of the stars in the dark sky. Great location for day trips around the Cairngorms.
