Laighwood Holiday Cottages, Butterstone, Dunkeld, Perthshire


Laighwood Holiday Cottages, Butterstone, Dunkeld, Perthshire

Nestled in the heart of stunning Perthshire and surrounded by some of the world's most breathtaking scenery, Laighwood offers a variety of self-catering holiday cottages for those who seek the freedom and relaxation of Scotland's unspoiled landscapes. Located near the historic town of Dunkeld, Laighwood features accommodations ranging from a charming hillside cottage to the magnificent former West Wing of a 19th-century shooting lodge, a premier 4-star luxury property with expansive views over the rolling Perthshire countryside.

Wester Riechip is a luxuriously appointed property, sympathetically modernised to provide superb facilities while retaining the charm and elegance of Victorian Highland country living. The bright and spacious rooms of this 19th-century shooting lodge comfortably accommodate eight people and offer spectacular views. By day, the lush green fields and majestic hills of Highland Perthshire unfold before you, and by night, the lights of the Fair City of Perth can be seen twinkling in the distance.

Leduckie Cottage is a small detached farmhouse surrounded by the peaceful and gently rolling hills of Highland Perthshire, with stunning views across the lochs of Butterstone, Craiglush, and the Lowes. Accessed by a private tarmac road, Leduckie provides the ideal base for a tranquil 'away from it all' holiday for up to six people. Due to its popularity, early booking is strongly advised.

Craigton Cottage, a listed building situated just off the main Dunkeld to Blairgowrie (A923) road at the east end of the village of Butterstone, offers fully modernised accommodation for two. Craigton Cottage makes an ideal base for touring, golfing, fishing, walking, and bird-watching holidays. Guests staying at Craigton Cottage can also enjoy private facilities at Laighwood, including a game of squash on the private court or fly fishing for wild brown trout on the private hill loch.

The local area is rich with natural wonders. The Scottish Wildlife Trust's reserve at Loch of the Lowes, just a couple of miles from Dunkeld, is perhaps best known for its ospreys. This reserve also boasts a wonderful array of native wildlife, flora, and fauna, all set in a truly magical location. Another notable spot is the Hermitage, where visitors can witness salmon leaping the falls of the River Braan, set among spectacular woods that feature one of the UK's highest trees. The ancient Birnam Oak, steeped in centuries of history, is another must-see landmark.

Laighwood provides an ideal getaway for those seeking to immerse themselves in the natural beauty and historic charm of Perthshire. With its luxurious accommodations and proximity to some of Scotland's most captivating sights, it offers a perfect blend of comfort and adventure.
