A nice pub a couple of minutes from the cottage, and a 15 minute walk into Aberfeldy.. A good location for local trips eg. Pitlochry. The downside was large lorries on the narrow roads, for nearby logging. So care is needed if cycling in the area.

We had a fantastic week staying in a beautiful area, walking every day up hills and along rivers.. Larch Cottage is a very comfortable and warm place to stay, ideal for two people, we hope to stay here again in the future.

Drying room was great to try wet equipment in.. The cottage was lovely and warm and perfect for outdoor people with a dog.

We had a wonderful week at Larch cottage.. We chose the cottage as the location was of near equal distance to all the attractions we wanted to visit (Edinburgh, Ben Nevis to name a couple). The cottage was well presented and clean, and was exactly what we were looking for. There was an abundance of cooking equipment in the kitchen and the shower pressure was fab. The cottage is a 5-10 minute walk from Alberfeldy, which housed shops and restaurants, as well as some lovely waterfalls. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly consider staying again when we're next in Scotland!

Had a wonderful few days relaxing at Larch Cottage, loved the upside down layout of the place.. It was cosy and warm in the Scottish winter. The shower is really good, warm and powerful. The bed is so comfortable giving a great nights sleep. The cottage has all the facilities you’ll need, we appreciated the milk and teabags. If I was to change one thing it would be the couch and chairs, they’re a bit dated but other than that I’d highly recommend.

Lets try and get this right and give an honest review. Both my wife and I and our big white German Shepherd arrived at 'The Larch' in the village of Weem the last week of July 2018. Parking was absolutely no problem and collecting the keys was made easy as per Mr Wagstaff's instructions. This is an up-side-down cottage with the bedroom on the lower floor with a large walk-in shower and loo next door. The linen and bedding were clean and fresh with 2 complete set of towels. There is the option to wash towels and clothing if required, so its up to you if you feel the need for more towels; what we had was ideal! Upstairs is the main living area with an area to eat at the table and a small kitchen, suitable for our purposes. This is not a luxury cottage but one that is used for the likes of walkers, anglers etc We enjoyed staying here. My only 'gripe' was not with the cottage but the local eating and drinking places nearby....they all allow dogs in somewhere in their pubs etc but they don't advertise the facts as 'Dog Friendly'.(Weem and Aberfeldy pubs etc take note) Anyway, we had a grand time staying at the lodge and would consider coming back as there is so much to do in the area....you might even see Ed Sheeran in the local pub if your lucky when he's up visiting his friend in Aberfeldy.

This cottage, within walking distance from Aberfeldy, is an excellent spot to explore the surrounding area.. The cottage is warm and the skylights allowed us to control the air flow. I would have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to other tourists.

A good place to enjoy climbing and walking in the Scottish Highlands, Aberfeldy is a lovely small town only a mile away and this accommodation was perfect for my Partner and the Dog , nice walk in Weem Woodlands at the rear of the Cottage which is on a main Road but we were not disturbed by the traffic..

Two of us stayed for a week and used the cottage as a base to visit sights in the area. It's a lovely cottage with awell equipped kitchen and a comfy spacious bedroom. The shower room is large and has excellent water pressure. It makes a great base to explore the highlands and surrounding area. There are also attractions nearby, Dewers distillery and the Scottish Crannog Centre to name just two. Our only complaint was the smell, we knew the cottage was pet friendly but there was a strong smell of dog throughout the cottage. We had to keep the windows upstairs open constantly, luckily for us it was warm and this wasn't a major problem, but had it been winter and cold we would have needed the heating on and windows closed. This would have made the smell unbearable. I think the building needs a deep clean and a good airing to solve the problem. (I've been a dog owner all my life and I understand they smell, however I don't expect it in a holiday rental). The cottage was however clean and their were very few traces of pet hair. I'd recommend it as a place to stay but bring an air freshener.

The country cottage is adequate for two people. The bathroom is spacious and the water pressure very good, making the shower excellent. The bedroom is comfortable and there is little night-time traffic. The lounge/kitchen is spacious enough and the kitchen, although basic, serves its purpose. The house is warm and there is good radiator heating if required. The only place summer heating may be required is the bathroom underfloor, as this faces north. However, even if the thermostat is left at 40 degrees, it doesn't come on. It is pleasant on the front patio on a sunny day as it faces south. There is a lovely view from the east lounge window over the church to the steep, wooded hill.

It was a home from home. Very comfortable and relaxing, kitchen easy to use and all necessary facilities available. Views from all the windows were amazing. Loads of wildlife and easy parking. Highly recommended.

Larch Cottage was a delightful holiday cottage in lovely surroundings. It definitely benefited from being upside-down.
Mr Bertram

Excellent cottage and a lovely location in Weem but close enough to walk into Aberfeldy. We would happily stay at Larch Cottage again.

Loved the Larch Cottage and location and we were lucky to have good weather. The cottage was near enough to walk in to Aberfeldy or 5 minutes in car if weather bad. We loved it would love to go again sometime lots of good walks nearby .

This lovely wee house suited all our needs and had everything in it that we needed. We used it as a base and travelled around the area. We had a problem with TV to start with but after a phone call to Mr Wagstaff it was quickly resolved and all was good.

This cottage was beautiful, even nicer than the pictures. Excellent location, well maintained, helpful information pack from owner. The owner was also nice enough to allow us to take two dogs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it.
Miss Beaumont

It was a very lovely little cottage. Had everything that we wanted to escape for the week with our puppy. We loved having the underfloor heating downstairs, and it was very easily heated upstairs. Beautiful scenery around and lovely walks from the cottage, plus some helpful leaflets for us to discover other walks a bit further afield. The upside down feature was quirky and different, overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Ideal location for waking and sightseeing. Cosy, warm accommodation 500 yards from an excellent pub and restaurant. Washing/drying room very useful - perhaps could do with some more cooking dishes ie casserole dish or slow cooker

Our stay at Larch Cottage was every bit as good as we had hoped it would be, the cottage itself is quirky, with nice décor, very comfortable beds, luxurious fixtures and fittings, and very clean. The area is beautiful and there is lots to do. It is perfect for a relaxing break.
