Customer Reviews of Cruck Cottage, Aberfeldy - Sleeps 2
"A Romantic Gem of a Cottage"
We were delighted to find that the online pictures of Cruck Cottage matched the reality. It's a little detached, whitewashed building with a contemporary interior. What a delightful holiday home---small, intimate, beautifully, tastefully fitted out. The bedroom looks luxe with deep red window drapes, a king size leather sleigh bed with a claret coloured thick satin throw, comfortable pillows and soft lighting. There's even a flat screen TV as well as the one in the living room/kitchen. The large bathroom, with underfloor heating, has a power shower as well as a double ended bath. The cottage is tucked away so you feel private. In better weather, there is a sunken barbeque area for use in warmer, drier weather. I was almost tempted not to give this place a write up as I'd like to return and it might get very busy!
