Comfortable cottage in a central location

Situated in the centre of Blairgowrie, the Old Scout Hall was converted into residential accommodation 15 years ago. It's just a few minutes' walk to shops and eateries. And there is easy access to championship golf courses, top class salmon fishing and the Cateran Trail. Plus the ski-ing at Glenshee is 45 minutes away

Lovely get away

The property was perfect for our getaway with the dogs. Lovely little garden. Good sized rooms. All you could need with towels, soap, toilet rolls, kitchen fitted out with everything you needed, good cleaning essentials. The check in and out times worked well for us. The key safe to property was perfect. The only thing negative was that the patio doors didn't open and we left the front door open to let air in when it was warm and when sitting outside. The little table and chairs outside was also really lovely to sit and have breakfast first thing early morning. We really enjoyed the delicious scones and homemade jam, that was a lovely treat for our arrival. We are already thinking about coming back next month if we can get some time off work for a few days. Highly recommended.

Very Nice Accommodation

We enjoyed our stay at the Old Scout HQ. It was comfortable and nicely located with parking and there were shops nearby. The house was clean and standardly equipped. We enjoyed walking along the river and there were beautiful places to visit nearby.
