''From start to finish Jane was attentive and determined to make our stay on our honeymoon a relaxing and enjoyable experience. The cottage is on a quiet lane off the main road with a tight entrance, but a large drive area and beautiful front garden. The cottage's appearance is exactly as the advertisement. A real chocolate box of a cottage! All the necessary utensils and supplies are there including a spa bath which is a must after walking the nearby hills and mountains. At 6'6" tall I found the shower a little low for me but I am used to that!! The bed was amazingly comfortable and the range cooker easy to use. All in all I would recommend the cottage for any couple looking for a quiet retreat, close to many eateries and 2 supermarkets and many local independent stores.''

‘’A comfortable and well equipped base for a week's walking in the Perthshire hills. Well located for a variety of walking and good to return to a warm and cosy cottage after a day in a variety of Scottish weather.’’

‘’We recently spent a lovely chilled out week at Ivy Cottage, the first guests back in after 2nd lockdown. What can we say, Crieff and surrounding area was lovely with great places to visit. The cottage was quaint and very comfortable with underfloor heating in the downstairs bathroom which was good given we were there in the cold and wet May snow. Most comfy bed and all we needed for cooking and relaxing. Jane was a kind and thoughtful host who ensured our stay was comfortable. Lovely gardens and the wee conservatory great for watching the birds. X’’

‘’We had a brilliant stay at Ivy Cottage in January 2020. It was relaxing and quiet; just what we needed. We used it as an ideal base for exploring the nearby mountains. Our dogs had a great time and settled in immediately. Jane is very thoughtful and provides all sorts of little extras which really help make the stay lovely. We would certainly stay again. Thank you Jane!’’
