Pitfield - Pretty steading with outstanding countryside views
House with 5 Bedrooms, Sleeps 10, Garden
This house is Pitmiddle cottage and Outfield house joined by an internal interconnecting door to create one large house. This sandstone steading has been recently converted to a very high standard. It enjoys an elevated position with commanding views of the surrounding rolling counrtyside. It has great outside entertaining areas in the form of a west patio and a large east patio. The house is located in rural Perthshire but is within 20 minutes of Perth or Dundee city centres. There are shared gardens and a shared tennis court. The property is on a very small farm.
The steading building is in an L shape and can sleep up to 10 in 5 twin or double bedrooms. The house is made up of 2 units linked by an interconnecting door through one of the sitting rooms. There are 2 patios for eating and entertaining, one is on the west side and the larger one is on the east side. Both have glorious views of the surrounding countryside.
The main sitting/dining/kitchen area is open plan and is on the east side of the house with double doors leading onto the larger patio. 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 in this sitting area with a double height ceiling. 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. There is a second open plan sitting/dining/kitchen area which is effectively in the middle of the 2 houses just as you go through the inter connecting door. It is furnished to the same high standard as the other living area and its patio doors face west.
The accommodation is only on 2 levels at the eastern end of the house. Here you will find one of the 2 master bedrooms with its en suite bathroom with. The beds can be a superking (6 foot wide) or they can be seperated to form 2 singles. The second master bedroom is right at the other end of the house facing south towards the river Tay. The beds can be a superking (6 foot wide) or they can be seperated to form 2 singles. This bedroom has its own en suite shower room.
The 3 further bedrooms have twin zip and link beds which can convert to superking size just like the master bedrooms. There are also 2 further bathrooms well equipped with separate showers, baths and toilet.

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.

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 meal requirements. It makes it more of a holiday if you don't have to cook!

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.
