Sheeoch

Comrie sits on the banks of the River Earn in countryside that draws walkers, cyclists and those after a break from city life. The village itself has restaurants, pubs, shops and a nine-hole golf course among its amenities, plus events through the year including Comrie Fortnight in August. Stirling, Perth, Glasgow and Edinburgh are all within an hour's drive, while Loch Earn lies six miles away for water sports and sailing.

Sheeoch is a detached bungalow set back from the village centre, a ten-minute walk away. The accommodation is arranged on one level and sleeps four: a master bedroom with an ensuite, a second bedroom with twin beds, and a family bathroom. The open-plan kitchen and dining space overlooks the enclosed rear garden, which has a patio and furniture; the living room is bright and spacious. Essentials like heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wifi are covered. One dog can stay free of charge. The property sits on private parking for three cars and has a bike store.

This suits couples or families wanting a base for exploring Perthshire's cycle routes, walking trails and 43 munros within an hour's drive, or those interested in castles, gardens and whisky distilleries. No smoking please.
