We are located in Perthshire, about ten miles from Dunblane, which makes us perfectly located should you wish to explore more of Scotland.

Our five-star luxury Muckle Howf is a traditional stone built house that boasts stunning views over the rolling Perthshire hills. It has three bathrooms, all with ensuite, and has everything you will ever need to enjoy a luxurious and relaxing holiday -including a whisky lounge, sauna and outdoor hot tub!

Our two glamping cabins are perfect for a romantic getaway. They are both completely secluded which really adds to the experience.

The Wee Howf is located next to our lochan and is built on stilts amongst the trees with a burn running right underneath! While our charming Summer Howf is at the top end of Craighead garden and is surrounded by stunning flowers and our family ducks!

Craighead Howf is a wonderful place to come and put your feet up and enjot everything Scotland has to offer. Should you wish to stay put and enjoy your surrounding we have two friendly highland cows who would love to say hello, a couple of miniature donkey's and a collection of soay sheep!

Come and relax surrounded by peace, tranquility, wildlife and our variety of animals. Our free range hens will provide you with your breakfast, their eggs can be found in the honesty box at the bottom of the lane!

We are open! Just posted our first blog of the season on our website! Our first visitors left this morning and left a fabulous message, they loved it. Work hopefully starting on the Hobbit houses next week. The Wee Howf is having a freshen up and Lewis of Keir Joinery is working on some alterations to the Wash Howf as I type.

The end of a huge effort. A dream of Ians turned in to a reality. A major craftsmen achievement for Ian and Lewis. The Tree Howf opened with 5 minutes to spare before its first guests but we managed a quick glass of bubbly just before they arrived. Then with our three children, their partners and our lovely grandson we officially opened it this evening.
