Outfield - Pretty steading with outstanding countryside views
House with 3 Bedrooms, Sleeps 6, Garden
This sandstone steading which sleeps 4-6 has been recently converted to a very high standard. It enjoys an elevated position with commanding views of the surrounding rolling counrtyside. Located in rural Perthshire but within 20 minutes of Perth or Dundee city centres.
The steading building is in an L shape and the long part of the "L" houses the 3 bedroom property. (The shorter part of the "L" houses a 2 bedroom property). This 3 bedroom property has a large east facing patio and private parking beside the house. Guests are able to have shared use of the tennis court. The surrounding garden area (with croquet in the summer) is shared. The property is on a very small farm.
The accommodation is on 2 levels, the upper level was once a hay loft and therefore has low level windows as well as velux windows. This level houses the large master bedroom with its en suite bathroom with shower over the bath. The beds can be a superking (6 foot wide) or the beds can be seperated to form 2 singles.
On the ground level of the accommodation you have the open plan kitchen/dining/sitting area. The sitting area has huge tall windows and patio doors effectively bringing the outside views in. There is an open fire place and luxurious leather seating. The kitchen area is large and a counter seperates it from the sitting area. The dining table is just to the side of the kitchen.
The large main bathroom has a separate shower, bath and toilet. 3 stairs take you onto a landing where the 2 further bedrooms are located side by side. These bedrooms have twin zip and link beds which can convert to superking size just like the master bedroom.
The accommodation in this house is flexible, it can be a 3 bedroom house in its own right or with the aid of the inter connecting door it can become a 5 bedroom house with another kitchen/dining/sitting room, a west facing patio and another 2 bathrooms. Obviously a different price structure applies.
On site there is also a 1 bedroom cosy cottage for rent with its own large patio and then there is our own farmhouse and various farm buildings. Acess from the main road is a farm road/track.

Local activities in and around Dundee, Central Scotland
On site you may walk through the fields and woods or play tennis on our court which we believe has one of the best views of any tennis court.
5 minutes away (by car) in our local village of Abernyte there is The Scottish Antiques and Arts Centre providing a fantastic selection of antiques, paintings, jewellery, gifts, furniture and fine Scottish foods etc. There is also Cafe Circa located in the Centre providing delicious home baking and lunches. Enjoy a stroll down to the Centre and earn your glass/bottle of wine!
Locally there is a golf driving range and in the area there are many golf courses and lots of public walks.
There is also the celebrated Glendoick Garden Centre nearby, it also boasts a restaurant and food hall.
The nearest castles/palaces to visit would be Glamis Castle and Scone Palace - there are plenty of outside play areas and extensive grounds for the children to run around in.
There are shopping opportunities in Perth and Dundee. St. Andrews is well worth a visit, it is only 40 minutes away - a must for the avid golfer and lots of shops and bars/cafes for those not of that persuasion. On the golf theme we are only about 40 minutes from the famous Carnoustie golf links.
Drive over the hill and you are in the vale of Strathmore close to the Angus glens. In winter we are just over an hour away from the Glenshee ski slopes.

Rental Notes: Change over day is a Friday or Monday in summer, properties can be accessed after 4.00 pm and must be vacated by 10.00 am. We are delighted to recommend a local company the Nutmeg Cooking Company for any catering requirements you might have - they can do special occassions or normal evening meals/lunches. Menus can be provided and we would put you in direct touch with the company as arrangements would need to be made well in advance with them.
On a more ad hoc basis we would be happy to recommend other local cooks for your meal requirements. It makes it more of a holiday if you don't have to cook!
We also have a mobile beauty therapist who can come to the houses.
Maid service at an additional charge can be organised.
Bed linen, bath towels and dishcloths are all provided in the rental charge as in end of stay cleaning. We would however ask you to leave the houses as tidy as you can.
