It has four bedrooms, a generous kitchen and dining room, a cosy sitting room with wood stove and a large garden – ideal for two families or gatherings of friends. It’s also a house of books and music with well-stocked bookshelves for all ages, a piano and other instruments for you to enjoy. THE VILLAGE For such a small community, Birnam & Dunkeld has incredible amenities. Birnam has a shop, post office/café, a pub and Birnam Arts, a full-blown community arts centre with its own café - all within a five-minute walk of the house. Take a 15-minute stroll across the bridge, and Dunkeld has great little shops and galleries, cafés, restaurants and live music pubs. Close behind the house, the majestic oak of Shakespeare’s Birnam Wood stands on the banks of the River Tay, where you may easily see a red squirrel or even a beaver! Across the river you can enjoy the tranquil grounds of Dunkeld's ancient cathedral. THE AREA Together, Birnam & Dunkeld are a favourite Scottish holiday destination. Castles, distilleries, outdoor activities of all kinds, and the spectacular landscape and history of Highland Perthshire are right on the doorstep. Walk out of the house and lose yourself up the river or in the surrounding woods and hills. Drive for half an hour and you’re deep into the mountains, glens and lochs of the Highlands. Yet city life is within easy reach, both by rail (the station’s only a 7-minute walk from the house) by car (we're just off the A9 - an hour to Edinburgh, just over an hour to Glasgow) and by bus. ACTIVITIES Easily accessible activities include golf, tennis, fishing, swimming, pony-trekking and riding, bird-watching (we have a resident osprey at the Loch of the Lowes), mountain-biking (Dunkeld is famous for its superb trails), hillwalking, climbing, canoeing, kayaking, canyoning. Most of these are more or less on the doorstep, for others it's a drive of no more than half an hour. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Wheelchair-accessible parking available ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Piano - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Fenced yard - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Accessible parking space - In-room accessibility - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Wheelchair-accessible parking - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a village - In the mountains - Near a health/beauty spa - On a river ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/76000000/75690000/75681300/75681202/6bc3836d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Peaceful bungalow, super close to birnam oak and hiking trails.
