Customer Reviews of Lilac Cottage,Crieff, sleeps 4
1st comment: Lovely little cottage with enclosed garden. Well stocked with kitchen / household equipment. 2 minutes walk to Crieff centre where there were lots of nice restaurants and bars. (Great welcome in the Curly Coo!). The cottage is much bigger than it looks on the picture and is a credit to the owner. Lots of lovely walks nearby all in all a great week for myself, my partner and our black Lab. March 2012.
2nd comment: Enjoyed a lovely weekend break at Lilac Cottage with good facilities & easy access to the town. Plenty nice restaurants & walks nearby. Feb 2012.
3rd comment: A charming cottage with bags of character, well furnished and equipped. Felt homely and welcoming and is if you are stepping into a secret world, stepping back in time, yet within a 3 minute walk to the town centre. Mind your head entering the kitchen! Aug 2011.
4th comment: Character cottage right in the heart of the town but quietly tucked away with pretty garden and lovely views. March 2011.

10th comment: It was a charming cottage with lovely period detail throughout and beautiful ceramics and lamps everywhere. Really calming. Jan 2010.
11th Comment Property was full of character and very comfortably furnished (however we weren’t aware of the low ceilings upstairs until our arrival and the 6ft male in our party found not being able to stand upright very frustrating!). Sept 2009.

13th Comment Central location but quiet. July 2009.
