We had a great time in Aberfeldy. Completely exceeded our expectations. We would definitely return again. Everything from the checking in process to the accommodation to the surroundings was splendid. Thank you Colin!
This house has a great location within the heart of the town making it very accessible for all the local amenities. As it is tucked away from the main road it was very quiet and relaxing. It’s a great family house to stay in with everything provided. Would highly recommend.
The Coach House is a very spacious and well equipped holiday house which makes a great base for exploring the local area. We particulrly like the relatively large kitchen/diner which allowed our family to socialise and to eat together. The small private garden and covered area was great for the children to play in.
Colin was so helpful, from an early check in after a long overseas journey to helping us find a garage mid week for our car . He was very prompt in replying and we all had the feeling that it was really important to Colin that we all felt at home, had everything we needed and would have a restful, fun time. The location in the village centre is very quiet , we enjoyed the ozpig and the bottle of wine in the fridge. Thank you Colin, we hope to return and wish you the very best. Only request - a lock on the downstairs bathroom door 😆
Stayed with niece and my cousins kids and the owner met us and gave us such a warm welcome and a tour of the property which was a lovely touch. Great location and short walk into the town of Aberfeldy. Lovely property and great space inside. Plenty of room for 3 children and 2 adults. Ideal location for travelling anywhere and good local amenities. Would definitely recommend and would lobe to stay again
Wonderfully helpful host and fabulous cottage. The location is central but very private. The cottage has a lovely warm, welcoming feel and the amenities are truly excellent. A lot of thought and consideration has obviously been given. I really couldn’t recommend more.
Beautiful, comfortable and extremely well-equipped cottage. Centrally located in the pretty , small town of Aberfeldy with many local amenities and a fantastic array of easily accessible walks. The covered area in the sheltered garden, complete with wood-burning ‘Ozpig’ was perfect for chilled evenings. Highly recommend for a relaxing and recuperative, family holiday.
Beautiful cottage in a perfect location. Fantastic home from home, so well equipped and spacious. Garden space lovely too, with covered area to sit in, whatever the weather. Aberfeldy itself also lovely for a quiet relaxing break. Would recommend.
We highly recommend this lovely cottage. Spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable and warm. Colin the host was very helpful and the outside seating area he has created is a perfect oasis. Hard to believe it is so central. We had a lovely break and the house is well located for exploring the wider area too. We would definitely visit again.
I stayed at the Coach House for almost 2 months. During this time, my mother and sister visited, three girlfriends visited, and my husband stayed with me most of the visit. It worked perfectly for all of us. The Garden is truly delightful and the cottage is charming, comfortable, with modern amenities. Colin was a delight and went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. Aberfeldy is a lovely Highland town, great base for exploring. The best VRBO property I’ve encountered.
We enjoyed our stay in Aberfeldy immensely. The property was beautiful, clean, modern, and in the heart of the village. We could walk to everything, including the Co-Op for a few groceries. Excellent, friendly host met us upon arrival and gave us the grand tour. This was by far the best of the VRBOs we stayed in. Would definitely return.
Excellent stay in the Coach House. Colin personally greeted us and was great to work with during our stay. House was conveniently located and very comfortable. We would love to return to Aberfeldy in the future and would definitely book with Colin again.

About the host
Hosted by Colin Clark
I am a retired veterinary surgeon and spent much of my youth in and around Aberfeldy. When my parents were ailing, I bought the cottage, the better to be able to keep an eye on them as they neared the end of their lives. After they died, I kept the cottage and have used it as a holiday home for my family and friends and have occasionally let it out. Now I want other visitors to enjoy the area and since I have retired, I am better able to run it as a HOMEAWAY project.
Why they chose this property
The cottage is stone built with thick walls which help to keep it cool in the summer and warm in the winter. It dates back to the late nineteenth century. The property is in a quiet location in the centre of the town with easy access to all shops and local amenities. Having a gaited garden, it is very safe for young children and suitable for family holidays. There is a local recreation centre with swimming pool and gymnasium as well as a local cinema. There is also a park with a play area for small children.
What makes this property unique
Peace and quiet whilst being in the centre of town. As soon as you step out to the Main Street there are views of the near and distant hills. The surrounding countryside is stunningly beautiful and a short walk will take you to the banks of the mighty river Tay and the famous General Wade’s bridge, built in the early 18th century.
