Bakehouse Cottage

Bakehouse Cottage suits couples and small families after a quiet base in rural Perthshire. The former village bakery has retained character through original stone walls and pine beams, and sits at the heart of Kirkmichael with the village shop and pub within walking distance. A private enclosed courtyard provides outdoor space, and there's parking for one car on site.

The cottage contains two bedrooms—a double and a single—and one bathroom on the ground floor. Downstairs also has an open-plan living and dining space with a kitchen equipped to cook proper meals. Essentials like heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wi-fi are included. One dog can stay free of charge. The property is yours alone; you're not sharing with other guests.

The location works well for exploring central Scotland without constant driving. Kirkmichael sits on several walking routes, and the village is close to Perthshire's lochs, glens, and forests. Longer days out can reach the Cairngorms, Loch Ness, the Trossachs, or the east and west coasts. The high-street shops of Perth are an easy drive, as are castles like Blair and Glamis, and outdoor pursuits from golf to mountain biking are nearby. Non-smokers only.
