4 Bedroom House in Birnam, Dunkeld

This comfortable, spacious and much-loved family home in Birnam & Dunkeld ('Best Place to Live in Scotland' - The Times, March 2023) is a perfect base for exploring Highland Perthshire and further afield. It has four bedrooms, a generous kitchen and dining room, a cosy sitting room with wood stove and a large garden โ€“ ideal for two families or gatherings of friends. Itโ€™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/cafรฉ, a pub and Birnam Arts, a full-blown community arts centre with its own cafรฉ - 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, cafรฉs, restaurants and live music pubs. Close behind the house, the majestic oak of Shakespeareโ€™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 youโ€™re deep into the mountains, glens and lochs of the Highlands. Yet city life is within easy reach, both by rail (the stationโ€™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.

Summary: What a great stay! Walking through the house, we just kept saying โ€œwow!โ€ Beautiful, spacious, clean home with character, great showers, comfortable beds, lovely back yard/patio, gracious and welcoming hosts, plenty to do in walking/short drive distances. Our three kids (6, 4, and 4) loved the kids room and allllll the books on the shelves, along with the charming Beatrix Potter Experience at the Arts Center just down the street and the sand pit at the playground across the river in Dunkeld. We took longer outings to Pitlochry (saw a show at the festival theatre), Aberdeen, St. Andrewโ€™s, and meant to go to Perth, but also enjoyed the bakeries, parks, and walks closer to Birnam and Dunkeld.
