Cairns Holiday House

With beautiful scenery & wildlife, this traditional, charming house is perfect for friends & family wanting to relax in a majestic setting. Sleeps 6.

Cairns is an attractive, spacious, detached, single-storey holiday property situated in two acres including an orchard of plum and apple trees. There is a large private trout pond, which guests can catch their supper (rods provided) and fishing is also available at a private stretch of the River Isla. It lies in a quiet and rural location with panoramic views of the Vale of Strathmore and local countryside just outside of the village of Alyth in beautiful Perthshire.

The perfect location in which to relax, unwind and enjoy the views or stroll through the garden, where peacocks may wander. This is an ideal area for riding and hill walking, with the Cateran Trail close by. For the more adventurous, there is a selection of munro mountains including Ben Vrackie, Beinn a’Ghlo and Glas Tulaichean in the area.
