Just moments from Loch Tay's shores, Falls Cottage sits next to the path leading to the picturesque Falls of Acharn — one of many beautiful spots in this spectacular corner of Scotland. Less than two miles away is the delightful loch-side village of Kenmore, with the bustling town of Aberfeldy just 8 miles away, the popular tourist destination of Pitlochry within 22 miles, and the cosmopolitan city of Perth only 34 miles distant, making it highly accessible.
The owners have taken great pride in refurbishing this single-storey, pet-friendly cottage, creating a stylish and welcoming home-from-home. The smart and spacious kitchen/diner is exceptionally well-equipped, featuring a large fridge-freezer, electric oven, ceramic hob, dishwasher, laundry facilities, and a comfortable dining area for four.
The chic sitting room offers two inviting sofas, a contemporary rocking chair, and a distinctive wooden coffee table. Two sets of glass doors fill the room with natural light and lead into a cosy conservatory, where guests can relax to the soothing sound of birdsong and the gentle rush of the burn.
The conservatory opens onto a spacious decking area overlooking the Acharn Burn, where sunlight filters through the trees. A wooden table and chairs provide a delightful spot to enjoy outdoor meals, plan countryside adventures, or watch wildlife — red squirrels leaping among branches, kingfishers gliding over the water, and roe deer wandering gracefully through the woods.
Falls Cottage features two beautifully presented bedrooms — a double and a twin — each furnished with luxurious linens and enjoying lovely woodland views. Completing the accommodation is an elegant shower room with a walk-in shower.
Falls Cottage enjoys a fantastic location close to Loch Tay, offering a genuine sense of escape while being within easy reach of popular attractions. Just two miles away, Kenmore is one of Scotland's prettiest villages, featuring charming shops, a welcoming hotel, and the delightful Mains of Taymouth Courtyard Restaurant — ideal for relaxing after a day of exploration.
Kenmore also hosts the thriving Taymouth Marina, highlighting Loch Tay’s reputation as a prime watersports destination. Just a mile from the cottage, the marina provides watersports hire including kayaks, paddleboards and pedalos, as well as the luxurious Hotbox Spa. Taymouth Marina is also home to The Ferryman Inn, Café & Bar. Visitors of all ages will enjoy the Scottish Crannog Centre (3 miles), a fascinating reconstructed Iron Age village offering hands-on experiences of ancient crafts.
This corner of Highland Perthshire is rich with wildlife. Listen out for the distinctive call of the Capercaillie, watch red deer roam the hillsides, or see salmon leaping in the River Tay. Nearby, the 4,000-year-old Fortingall Yew tree — reputedly already mature during Pontius Pilate's childhood — offers a unique historic encounter.
Scenic walks abound right from the cottage doorstep, such as the trail to the beautiful Falls of Acharn. For those seeking a more challenging hike, Schiehallion and Ben Lawers await. Mountain biking enthusiasts will appreciate the superb trails around Loch Tay.
The River Tay, flowing from the loch at Kenmore, is renowned for excellent fishing, kayaking, and white-water rafting, especially the stretch near Aberfeldy (8 miles). Aberfeldy itself is a charming town offering various amenities, an award-winning bookshop with café, independent cinema, and swimming pool. Just five miles further, Grandtully promises an unforgettable chocolate experience at The Highland Chocolatier.
Falls Cottage's proximity to the A9 makes exploring the wider region easy. Pitlochry (22 miles) with its 'Theatre in the Hills', Blair Castle (29 miles), Aviemore (62 miles), and the city of Perth (34 miles) are all conveniently accessible, ensuring guests have endless opportunities for adventure and relaxation.
