We rented a holiday cottage for our week in Scotland. It was the first time we've ever done such a thing and we're anxious to do it again. It was the perfect way to spend a vacation - with our own private space, a well-stocked kitchen (we saved a lot of money by eating meals in), and plenty of activities.
The highlight of the cottage - at least for the little girls - was Percy, the peacock, who visited us early each morning on the patio. The girls fed him breadcrumbs and he subsequently took a liking to them - following them around the farm whenever we were at "home."
Fochy Cottage is located 2 miles from Kinross, Northern Perthshire, Scotland: deep in the heart of an attractive rural area. We thoroughly enjoyed its peacefully idyllic setting by the tumbling Fochy burn (stream) on the Waulkmill Farm. The cottage itself is a conversion of an old mill and retains original beams; it's beautifully furnished and with a private patio, use of large woodland and grounds (complete with a hard tennis court and a games room), it offered us a tranquil home-away-from home.
Enjoy the tour!
It looks like a fabulous place to stay. Hope you had a wonderful time!!!

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful thing you are doing for your girls. We have a neice that went on her mission to Scotland and of course fell in love with the place.
Loved the tour. We just watched it as a family. We also showed the boys AmY telling her Christmas story again. Mathieu said, "Amy has a really good British accent!" He was quite impressed - coming from one who is working on his French accent, we'd say it was quite the compliment.
