One of the great joys of a cottage holiday is the freedom it offers — and that includes bringing your dog along too! There’s no need to leave your four-legged friend behind in kennels when they can join in the adventure.

Highland Perthshire is a dog’s paradise, with endless opportunities for walking, swimming, and exploring. From peaceful woodlands and scenic hill trails to open countryside and lochside strolls, there's something to get every tail wagging.

Many of our cottages are pet-friendly and perfectly located for dog lovers. After a day of outdoor fun, your pup can curl up beside a roaring fire — tired, happy, and dreaming of tomorrow’s rabbits.

What’s more, you’ll find plenty of dog-friendly cafés and restaurants throughout Perthshire, so no one gets left out at mealtimes.

Canine Health & Happiness

Enjoy a fun and safe holiday experience with your four legged friend in Perthshire.

When out and about, always make sure to pop them on a leash when another dog approaches or engage the owners to check what they and their dog are comfortable with.

Town centre parks and recreational grounds are the perfect spots - flat and wide - for your four-ledded friend to burn off breakfast, lunch or dinner.

They are also a great place to asks locals where to buy replacement collars or leashes, shampoo, brushes, water bowls or the best gravy bones! As they can be very social places at times, it's best to avoid these spaces if your dog prefers it's own company. 

If you forget to pack your dog's medication or your stock begins to run low, or in the rare case of an accident or medical emergency, we recommend contacting Heartland Veterinary Services, in Pitlochry.

Seek reassurance and your access rights from the Access Scotland website for a range of helpful and practical advice and guidance.

We know dog's aren't just pets, they are family. Holidays should be the perfect time to spend uninterrupted time with them. And when you're away from home, there is something very special about sharing your holiday experiences with your canine companion. 

Guest Reviews

We had a lovely 4 day holiday over new year again. We have used Yeomans House many times and its a great base for the Pitlochry new year celebrations. The new year dancing and music on the main street on New year’s day is always fun. Great restaurants and bars near at hand always have a wonderful atmosphere.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Roneval, comfortable and clean and with all of the associated comforts to help us. Access to local hills and walks and the proximity of the railway station and amenities meant we didn’t have to use the car.

We had a lovely stay in this well-maintained, peaceful home. The house is fairly new and offers a lot of convenience, from the ease of using the heating to the ample amenities, including a large fridge-freezer and plenty of towels for both the bathroom and kitchen. We especially appreciated the quiet location, with its close proximity to town and the shortcut through the woods via the back gate. Parking was hassle-free, and the garage was available for storing bikes, which was a nice touch once we located the keys. We would stay again!
