Large country Holiday Cottage sleeps twelve Aberfeldy Perthshire Scotland


Large, country Holiday Cottage, sleeps twelve, Aberfeldy, Perthshire, Scotland. Tullicro is a small group of traditional stone buildings on the south facing hills overlooking the beautiful wooded Tay Valley, offering Scottish crofting in real comfort.

The charming town of Aberfeldy is just 2½ miles away with a good selection of interesting shops and eating places.

Near the cottages, the 16th century Castle Menzies welcomes visitors between March and October, while the adjacent House of Menzies specialises in contemporary art and fine wines.
