Award Winning Ideal Rural Escape in Earn Valley 5 min from Perth

This traditional cottage has been beautifully restored to a very high standard; bright & stylishly furnished with an open plan kitchen/living area with underfloor heating. The open plan area comprises a well equipped kitchen with integrated appliances, comfortable dining and additional seating in the glass extension to catch the morning sun with a coffee from the Nespresso machine. The living area has comfortable seating, a flat screen TV and a well-stocked wood burning stove.

The bedrooms are both ensuite; the master having a roll top bath in the bathroom. A door from the twin room leads onto a patio with a cafe style table & chairs perfect for morning coffee. A separate outhouse is provided as a perfect wet kit boot room. There is a stainless steel sink, washing machine, tumble drier and overhead pulley for drying clothes.

In addition to two laid lawn areas to the front of the cottage there are two separate decking areas for al fresco dining and BBQs. Deck chairs are also provided to relax and enjoy the outdoors.

At Dupplin Estate safety is our number one priority. We are taking all the steps possible to ensure your safety when you stay with us. Properties are left vacant for 72hrs between stays and we have invested in a fogging machine to safely disinfect the property in addition to our new Covid-19 cleaning protocols.
We are a member of the Scottish Association of Self Caterers who have been instrumental in producing the new strict 2-stage (Clean & Disinfect) cleaning protocols which we have adopted. During the height of the pandemic, we offered free Medical stays to support doctors and nurses who needed an emergency base. We had to abide by incredibly strict cleaning protocols and as a result we feel confident that we can provide you with a safe environment for you to relax in.
All of our cleaning and admin staff have undertaken the Landlord’s Little Helper Covid-19 Holiday Let Cleaning course. This together with our own COVID-19 cleaning checklists and risk assessments allow us to reassure you that safety is the number one priority for anyone staying at Dupplin Estate. We take this responsibility seriously both for you and also for our staff and community.
We have invested in additional PPE, hand sanitiser, disinfectants specifically for COVID-19 and a fogging machine for use between stays to ensure the property is fully disinfected. This uses a food safe chemical and poses no risk but allows us to ensure we can guarantee a thorough disinfection of the property.
We will continue to keep a close eye on government guidelines and changes to cleaning protocols as more research is done into Covid-19.
Some of the lovely soft furnishings which add to the atmosphere in our cottages have sadly had to be removed (until we have a vaccine) so please forgive us if it is not as ‘pretty’ as it looks in some of the photographs. We have some books in the property, but the pages have not been cleaned on every stay (our 72hr vacancy between stays should deal with this). The guest information folder is cleaned between stays. There is disinfectant and hand sanitiser under the sink if you need it at any stage during your stay.
We usually provide canisters of coffee, tea and sugar. We have now switched to sachets which are not reused for the next guest if you don’t use them.
As part of our commitment to the environment we used to use refillable products from Scottish Fine Soaps in the bathrooms. We have replaced these with smaller single use bottles (any not used are not recycled to the next guests).

Perfect cottage in a lovely setting
We had a wonderful stay here. The cottage was great, beautifully decorated, had everything we needed. Bright and in a lovely area. Loved watching the lambs in the field beside us. Short distance to pubs, farm shops etc. Can't wait to come back. Thank you.

One of the best!
A wonderful property to stay in for a holiday. Warm, welcoming, comfortable, spotless, quiet with a terrific outlook onto woods and fields. Lovely welcome pack on arrival, clear instructions for appliances and the well stocked wood burner. We loved listening to the many birds, spotted red squirrel and deer and all from the inspired front conservatory! We experienced sun hot enough to lie out in, rain, wind and even snow on the last day. Excellently positioned for visiting other towns and the local pub, 10 minutes away, was a delight. We will definitely book again, hopefully in a different season to witness the trees in leaf.

Just superb
We've previously stayed in their larger property a few miles away and had a fantastic time. This time didn't disappoint either. Their standards are impeccable, I defy anyone to stay there and say there was something the owners hadn't thought of because we couldn't think of anything. The treats there on arrival are a lovely touch, cleanliness 1st rate, fantastic open plan living, very comfortable beds and country living but with Perth only 10 minutes drive away. As my heading says, just superb and we will be booking again for next year!

Outstanding
There are not enough superlatives to describle this house - and it is a large 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom house - not a cottage. It is well laid out, fully-equipped and clearly fits in a "superior" category - no wonder it has won awards. It is in a private, peaceful location and there is a short bushland path to your own isolated picnic table on the banks of the Earn River. The property description and photos are accurate but cannot convey how nice this place is. In the country but close to Perth, with both a large Tesco and well equipped farm shop/cafe 10 minutes away. There is also a quaint country pub within a short drive. The beds are excellent. Donryn is a great host and responds promptly. Highly recommended.

Absolutely Perfect Cottage
We had such an amazing stay at Earn Cottage. The accommodations were just perfect and really enjoyed the claw tub for a soothing bath. The property is great and we took a few strolls. It was so nice to see the baby sheep as we drove into the property and even had a local pheasant pecking at the window to say hello. Did a lot of day trips so it was convenient. Would definitely come back for another stay. thanks again
