The mill owner who built Laurelbank was obviously a family man not out to flaunt his wealth as he succeeded in building a cottage of a homely domestic scale but with ample accommodation to sleep eight people comfortably. He positioned Laurelbank at the centre of a large mature garden and used local stone from the nearby hills. The house has a specimen copper beach that must be more than 200 years old in the centre of the garden, surrounded by a manicured lawn and made totally secure by perimeter dry-stone walling. The well-stocked garden is a permanent blaze of colour during the summer and provides a ready haven for a multitude of songbirds.

This house is Ideal for groups or large families wishing to get together for a self catering holiday. The views from the house are of the surrounding mountains and countryside yet this tranquil idyll is only 150 yards from the shops, pubs and amenities of the delightful Scottish Highland market town of Aberfeldy.  This very spacious, comfortable and charming house is capable of providing accommodation for a total of 8 people, often sleeping 3 generations at once and providing the perfect garden for children to play in safely.

On the ground floor there is a cosy lounge with a traditional pine mantle and a gas flame effect fire, wide screen TV and DVD (with library) and a large separate dining room to accommodate all guests. To the rear of the house there is a large modern ceramic floor tiled designer kitchen, with oven, fridge, freezer, and microwave and a breakfast area whilst the utility room adjacent boasts a washer/drier, dishwasher, iron and board. On the ground floor there is also a single bedroom.

On the first floor of Laurelbank, there is a large king size double bed room, two generous twin rooms and a further single bedrooms. There are two white-tiled bathrooms/WCs both with showers. The house has full double-glazing and full gas fired central heating. There is secure parking for four cars in the driveway but room elsewhere for more. On the sunny patio there is garden furniture, a barbeque and secure shed for bicycles. Payment for fuel is calculated by meter reading based on the actual amount used and at normal domestic rates.  A cot and high chair are provided and baby-sitting can be arranged. Duvets with linen and towels for all eight guests are provided free of charge. There is barrier free access for wheelchairs. One well behaved pet welcome but a second may be allowed after discussion with the owner.
