Bed and breakfast at a charming stone-built home in an idyllic secluded valley 5 minutes from Dunkeld

View of the glen from the garden Peacock

In one of the most idyllic settings you can imagine, Marjory Ann Anderson welcomes guests to stay for bed and breakfast at her home, a stone built house dating from the 17th century totally secluded at the top of a glen a couple of miles from Dunkeld.

The air is fresh with the scent of woodland and it is quiet and peaceful here. Ospreys fly overhead, a polecat sometimes visits, you will often see fallow deer feeding in the meadows around about, and Majorie-Ann has peacocks and fantail doves which live in the garden.

It is quite rare to find such accommodation: this is an incredibly central base for touring Scotland with easy access to roads North, South, East and West, and yet is quietly nestled in a secluded valley surrounded by the beauties of nature.
