About this property

Ivy Cottage, Aberfeldy, Scotland Scottish STL Licence: PK11697F

Ivy Cottage is a centrally-located, traditional Grade II listed cottage with pool table room, free off and on street parking and garden.
It is ideally located within minutes walk to Aberfeldy town centre with all its coffee shops, bars, restaurants and Art Deco cinema.

Home to The Birks of Aberfeldy, favourite of Robert Burns the Scottish National bard. You can visit him on his bench at lower Birks, then follow the footpath for 2 miles up to the Falls of Moness to discover spectacular views.
The river bank of the longest river in Scotland-The River Tay, large play park, tennis courts and a 9 hole golf course are also a short stroll away.

Dewar’s Aberfeldy Distillery with its award winning Visitor Centre is a must to see and experience and is within 20 minutes walking distance from the cottage. We are proud to have secured a special discount just for our guests which can be used when booking all tours, including Whisky Connoisseurs and Whisky and Chocolate. Details of this will be messaged to you after booking.

Kenmore on Loch Tay is just a short drive straight to the left from Ivy Cottage. Absolute must for the beautiful scenery and lovely places to enjoy wonderful food and drinks in Taymouth Marina, The Courtyard and the Kenmore Hotel.
Drive all the way overlooking the stunning Loch Tay, and you’ll arrive at Killin - famous for its Falls of Dochart.

Go over the historical Wade’s bridge towards the villages of Weem and Dull, to see Castle Menzies, visit Highland Safaris and continue to the beautiful village of Fortingall in Glen Lyon, the longest glen in Scotland. The Keltneyburn Smiddy is also on the way, well known for their metal sculpture artistry.

There are plenty of local activity providers to experience white water rafting, abseiling, gorge walking, canyoning and mountain biking.

We truly are spoilt for choices over here, and all contact information is in Ivy Cottage’s welcome pack for your convenience.

The space:
Newly renovated traditional B listed end terraced cottage with private driveway garden and free on street parking.

Ivy Cottage is lovely! Aberfeldy is a fantastic town with good restaurants; it was great to be able to walk to dinner after a day of sightseeing. The cottage is extremely comfortable and Anna was very easy to contact and a wonderful host.

Beautiful house in great location. Very clean with good facilities. Owner/manager was very helpful and responsive. I can see why it’s a highly rated property. I did think it was expensive at nearly 1400 for 5 nights but it was hard to gauge from pictures alone when booking. This is not to be negative as it was a lovely home with good facilities and nice touches but at nearly 300 a night in mid May I do think the price is a little high, I can understand that cost in peak summer. Overall we would stay again as we enjoyed it.

Thank you for your kind words Donna, so happy you have loved Ivy and your well deserved break. We do have settings on to offer Member, Mobile and Last minute discounts on this booking platform however there’s nothing I can do about the extra service fees charged to both, us - hosts and our guests. Very much hope to welcome you back again, Anna :)

Lovely quiet cottage in Aberfeldy

This cottage was great - comfortable kitchen/dining room which was well equipped, plenty of seating in the living room, a very welcome pool table in the conservatory and lovely garden with decking and outdoor seating. Upstairs there is space for 5 in 3 rooms, one with a nice ensuite. Great location for exploring the delight of the highlands.

Wonderful stay in Aberfeldy!

When a huge storm in the area forced our original plan to change, the Ivy Cottage and host Anna were there for us! This home has it all. We cooked two delicious full meals in the well equipped kitchen. The washing machine was handy as well. The bedrooms were so comfortable and everything was so tidy and neat. The walk to “town” is only 10 minutes and I can safely recommend the shopping and Three Lemons restaurant. What a great find!

Ivy Cottage is absolutely perfect!

Absolutely fantastic experience at Ivy Cottage. Anna has the cottage full of personal touches and thoughtful treats and amenities for guests. It’s even better than advertised. Easy walking to Dewars Distillery (worth the visit even if you’re not a Scotch whisky drinker - take advantage of the discount she offers), the Birks o’ Aberfeldy and all of the cafes and shops. She is very responsive to questions or concerns which made the overall experience even better. One of the best VRBO stays we’ve ever had…I highly recommend Ivy Cottage and can’t wait for my next trip to Aberfeldy - I already know where we’re staying. Thank you Anna!

This quaint and cozy cottage was an excellent place to explore Aberfeldy and surrounding areas! Not far from St Andrews, Pitlochry, Dunkeld, the Cairngorms National Park and the House of Bruar- all of which we visited. So nice to come back to Ivy Cottage at night to shoot a few games of pool and watch movies as a family. Plenty of room for 4 adults and we had everything we needed (except shampoo and conditioner.) One caution - the stairs in the house are steep and narrow so take it slow going up and down. They had automatic stair lights which helped navigate at night. The treats supplied (Scotch Whiskey too) as a welcoming gift were appreciated! Communication with Anna was excellent!
