Architect-designed cabin for 2 in the heart of Scotland with alfresco bath and gorgeous bedside views; 1 hr from Edinburgh
Space & setting.
*Brand new*
As soon as you walk through the door of this delicious cabin in the heart of Perthshire, stow your devices in the lock box. This is a perfect place to disconnect and recharge (though there is WiFi if you simply can’t!). Soot-coloured and sustainably built, the cabin blends brilliantly into the landscape of a stunning 2500-acre estate. Inside, the thoughtfully designed interiors feature a wealth of local craftsmanship, including handmade woollen blankets by a local sheep farm and beautiful crockery by a local artisan. There’s a kingsized bed with luxe linens and stunning views; there’s a charming kitchen for simple meals, and a spacious shower to refresh after days spent outdoors.
Because it’s the outdoor that truly makes this cabin special. Footpaths carve through the Sidlaw countryside from the doorstep; friendly cows roam nearby (this is a working farm). Pheasants scurry about the hedgerows; birds swoop overhead. And if hiking sounds like too much effort, simply enjoy the peace of your plant-fringed private deck with a book. The firepit is ready for sausage grilling, marshmallow toasting and moonlit drinks later on, and there are endless views over the fields towards the Sidlaw Hills from the clawfooted outdoor tub. A-aaand relax.
