The Hirsel is a traditional stone cottage on a large private country estate close by a working farm high in the hills between Dunkeld (7 miles) and Blairgowrie (11 miles) in central Perthshire approximately one hour's drive north of Edinburgh. 
 
Easily accessible via the fast A9, A923 and 3 miles of private road to the door, it stands detached facing its own small fenced grass garden, with lovely countryside of heathery hills and Scots pines all around, offering an interesting and relaxed holiday to those who really want to be away from it all and would enjoy experiencing life on a true Scottish Highland Estate.

A shepherd, a gamekeeper and a laird will be your nearest neighbours - there are curlews, peewits, ospreys, larks and very many birds to watch; roe-deer, stoats and pinemartens to glimpse, and trout in two lochans - you can fish from the bank or a boat. In Dunkeld and Blairgowrie you will have plenty of shops to choose from, and there are excellent restaurants in the area. The nearby A9 links you easily to Inverness, Loch Ness and the west - while from Blairgowrie and the A93 you have access to the Angus Glens and Royal Deeside.
