Perthshire

Perth and Kinross is a beautiful region of Scotland with a diverse landscape of mountains, lochs, rivers, woodlands, barren moors, fertile farmland and the river plains around Perth. Perth, known as the 'gateway to the Highlands', straddles the River Tay before it widens out into the Firth of Tay. It is an ancient town, having been inhabited by Romans, Picts and Celtic missionaries.

A Varied Landscape to Discover

The name Perth comes from the fact that the Romans christened their settlement here 'Bertha'. Through the middle ages and when it was the capital of Scotland it was known as St John's Toun of Perth and this association is retained in the name of the local football team, St Johnstone.

Perthshire is often referred to as 'The Big County' and aside from its own myriad charms its central position and excellent transport connections makes it an ideal base for exploring in all directions. Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stirling, Dundee and the Angus coast, the Cairngorms, Inverness, St Andrews and Fife in general are all perfectly feasible for enjoyable day trips.

Bridge over River Tay at Dunkeld

The wooded hills and valleys north of Perth provide a stunning setting for small towns and villages such as Crieff, Dunkeld and Aberfeldy. The area offers an abundance of leisure activities - salmon fishing, walking, climbing and watersports on the lochs, as well as lots of places of historical interest to explore.

The area north of Dunkeld is often referred to as 'Highland Perthshire' and it is easy to see why: heading north you see ahead of you how the hills begin to close in. Then it is goodbye to the rich, rolling countryside of the southern part of the county and hello to the mountains and moorlands, lochs and glens and the kind of scenery which most visitors would associate with the actual Highlands further north.

21-Sep-2019	Poldhu at Kentra Bay DE3 (overall)	Beautiful property, excellent location. First class service with Unique. Only downside is paying the housekeeping deposit when booking and not nearer the booked date. Poldhu Cottage at Kentra is just beautiful Clean and spotless and fully equipped with all household necessitates. Amazing views and lots of wildlife visiting the property including deer on the front lawn, Very quiet location and a little out of the way down an unmade track, which was flooded when we went. Large cosy front lounge with plenty of seating.

21-Sep-2019	South Mill CH2 (overall)	I would certainly recommend Unique Cottages and I plan to use them again ! They are helpful and efficient and their property descriptions are spot on.
20-Sep-2019	Cnocan Teen CC1 (overall)	There was an intense obnoxious smell in the bathroom and toilet spreading into the utility room for the whole duration of our stay. This was informed to Unique cottages and unfortunately nothing was done. The worst bit was that the smell was spreading into the kitchen. Our entire holiday was spoilt with a bad smell which was most probably known to the care taker. Will not use the services of Unique Cottages ever again. Instructions about electricity usage could have been more clear.

There has been some critisim of UC for repayment of the deposit we had non of these we we emailed to say that the cottage was left in a good condition and that the deposit would be refunded in 2 or 3 working days. The deposit landed in my account the same day which was four days after we left the property. Generally pleased with te complete process
