Guest Reviews

Super house for exploring Pitlochry. clean and very well equipped. Great garden which is enclosed and has direct access to the forest and loch faskally. Short walk to the town centre and if you love the peace and quiet this location is just perfect. Would highly recommend.

It was very wet when we were in Pitlochry and we were glad to we in such a warm snug house! 22, Lagreach Brae was a great place to stay and we would happily recommend it to others. It is in an ideal location not just for Pitlochry but for the surrounding area. The house is well equipped and clean our only slightly negative comment was that the kitchen window couldn’t be opened. We also found the information in the house was very helpful with regard to how everything worked, better than any other place we stayed in. If we are back in the area we would definitely stay there again.

Lettoch Beag provides spacious accommodation with bespoke inclusions. The design is well thought out, with quality construction. The garden is very nicely landscaped and there is a beautiful view across the valley.
