3-bedroom log house set in woodland in the heart of Highland Perthshire

This is a three-bedroom log-built house set in woodland on the outskirts of the historic village of Kirkmichael, in the vale of Strathardle in the hills between Pitlochry and Blairgowrie.

It has a large kitchen/dining/living area with a well-stocked kitchen with oven/hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge & freezer and washing machine (plus a tumble dryer in the en-suite bathroom).

The living room includes ample seating around an open log fire, a TV with Free-sat channels and DVD/Blu-Ray player, plus CD player. There are books, games & DVDs on the shelves, so help yourself, and pictures and other personal touches to give it a sense of home. And the whole looks out through large french windows onto a paved patio, the fire pit with its log stools, and the open woodland beyond.

There are three bedrooms: a spacious master bedroom with a super-king bed (which can be detached to make two singles), a living flame fire for extra mood, and an en-suite bathroom (with under floor heating for your comfort); a twin room; and a bunk-bed room with additional pull-out bed (all full single-sized), plus further games & toys for the children. All have generous cupboard/hanging space.

There is an additional shower-bathroom off the main corridor.

Outside there is a large gravel driveway and car port with ample parking space (and more nearby). There is a paved patio area with a large picnic table, an outdoor fire pit, and also a small children's play house.

It's set in a 4.4 acre site with a mix of grass, rocks, trees and shrubs running down to a stream, shading over into a large area of open woods and moorland around.

Amazing hide away

What an absolutely perfect place! The lodge had everything we needed for the big and little kids. It was warm and cozy. The kids playhouse in the garden and the burn at the bottom of the garden made their weekend. There were toys and DVDs. We will definitely come back!

A lovely, cozy, quaint cabin stay

This was exactly what we were looking for. Such a lovley cabin in a wonderful quiet place in the woods. Richard the host was very helpful and responsive. The place was clean and cosy with a lovely wood fireplace. Not far either from the town of pitlochry which was a great place to see and explore. Cant reccomend this stay enough and we would be very keen to return!

Wee get away

The cabin was easy to get to, with the directions. Cabin was clean and tidy. Bed was comfortable And the sitting room. It took a bit of time to get the cooker and oven to work, but once you did it was easy. It was a nice relaxing time. The weather was wet but we managed to get some walking done with Winston the dog

Nice, but auld

The shack itself is lovely and is located in a beautiful area. Unfortunately, it was very dark inside and not very clean. Tiles in the bathroom are loose, wood which was prepared for a log fire was not dry enough and also we didn't have any warm water in there although we followed all the instructions as good as possible. There is no WiFi and very weak internet, but that's fine - you just should know about it. all in all, we enjoyed our stay, but things were different from what we expected.

peaceful place

I stayed here with my mum, dad ,partner and two children. The cabin has the wow factor for sure, thats the first word my partner said when he walked in, its got everything you need, plenty of space (although just that little bit more food storage space would be good), i love the smell you get as you walk in of the woodburner although we never needed to use it , the surroundings are beautiful and peaceful just what we wanted, for once i could actually let the kids run around without worrying too much about them because hardly any traffic maybe the odd car, there are nice walks up the hill ,there is a nice walk down to the village and nice friendly people at the village shop, it stocks quite alot of things that you wouldn't expect, there is a walk alongside the river from the village and paths that take you on the cateran trail. Good places to walk are the hermitage, killiecrankie and craigvinean forest, beautiful scenery, overall we had a lovely holiday at the cabin and would do it again .

Stench in house

Not a great place to stay apart from location. On arrival we entered and a stench of dampness came through the whole cabin. We never slept in any of the bedrooms because it was that bad. We even opened the windows for a whole day and it was still stinking. We spent 3 days sleeping on sofas which were not that great either. We had to keep the door closed between kitchen and the rest of the cabin to keep stench from the rest of the place.. definitely not worth over £200 a night. Was really looking forward to the place and was really disappointed. .. .

Fantastic cabin for a Scottish stag do

9 of us had a fantastic time at Richard's cabin. It's a beautiful, cosy and spacious home in an unbelievably beautiful place. Richard was very helpful and made the whole thing very easy. Will definitely stay here again.

Beautiful cabin located in an amazing location!

I wasn’t sure about Richard’s cabin when I read some of the reviews here, but the moment I saw the place, I realised it was perhaps one of the best cabins I’ve ever picked! We stayed there for two nights, and none of us wanted to leave! In fact, I am going to book it again. Cosy and warm cabin with unique surroundings, the only things we could hear were birds tweeting and deer walking around. A fireplace outside the cabin and a log burner inside, well-equipped kitchen, good size bedrooms,…. I’ve also had no problem with phone signals (I am on EE).

Not to be recommended despite its lovely location.

Rather tired and poorly managed. A misunderstanding with the owner and cleaners meant we had to wait until 6 for our turnaround. The hob only had 2 functioning rings. The dishwasher had lost its lower runner wheel. One of the cupboard door hinges was broken. The curtain hook in the master bedroom was broken. Two of the dining chairs had very wobbly legs. An electric socket at floor level was broken and unsafe.

Lovely place

We hebben genoten van het mooie ruime onderkomen. In de omgeving heerlijk gewandeld en genoten van het dorpse inclusief de pub. We schrokken van de laatste review, maar wees gerust, die informatie klopt echt niet. Mochten wij weer in Schotland komen, dan willen echt terug komen.
