Close to the Loch of the Lowes where I am a guide and I was on duty both the afternoon and following morning. Also it was a good price and I was even upgraded to another room because it was a quiet night.

The farmhouse is practically in the middle of nowhere, which made our stay very quiet for a great night sleep.
The host is welcoming and friendly and she made us feel at ease around the farmhouse.
The property is as Scottish as can be and you may even help yourself to a dram of single malt in the library room.

We stayed here for a Landrover Experience day in Butterstone, which was just a few miles up the road.
It was 50 years since my last visit to Birnam...when i was Youth Hosteling as a 15 year old.
We ate our evening meal in the Inn right next door to the Hotel.
Next time we'd like to stay a bit longer.

Beautiful historical town.
Beautiful historical town. It is very quaint, but it is still so pleasant to walk around. There are a few small shops, bakeries, and restaurants with great food. Everyone there was so friendly. There are a few pubs with affordable prices and great atmospheres. A train station is close by so it is easy to get to bigger towns and cities as well. The town is extremely safe, even at night. I never felt uncomfortable walking around.

Scenery outstanding; village charming.
Scenery outstanding; village charming. The only downside was the lack of pubs/restaurants, as this was over the Xmas period; consequently, on Xmas Eve we booked an over-priced [and not very good] meal at the Tay Bank Hotel -o.k. for a seat if having a meal upstairs [no signs or directions, but a local told us] but small bar downstairs dangerously over-packed with people [getting near the bar to order drinks impossible]. Apart from this local monopoly, Dunkeld is a great place, especially for The Great Outdoors. A walk up nearby Birnam Hill gives wonderful views of the rich surrounding countryside and its cute villages.

Rooms and public spaces were excellent.
Rooms and public spaces were excellent. When we checked in we were told swimming pool closed, this was one of the main reasons we stayed. When I complained to Kenny the duty manager he told me everyone was advised when it was reopened. I told him we were not advised. He insisted we were and walked away. The rest of the staff excellent. Drinks way to expensive £46 for a £12 bottle of wine, £15.50 for a 250 ml glass of sauvingnon

Our stay was relaxing and we liked going on the various walks that were various options. We especially liked the walk along the river past Macbeth’s tree. The Cathedral is well worth a visit and the trees are part of the history too.
Amazing apartment, beautifully presented and very stylish. Bedding, towels etc all of good quality and there was everything you could possibly have needed to make your stay enjoyable. Situated in the centre of Dunkeld, lots of lovely shops and great places to eat. We were attending a wedding on the Murthly Estate which was just 15 minutes away and there was plenty of room for us all to get ready in comfort. Suited us better than staying in a hotel.
Hotel in dire need of refurbishment. I didn't see another guest at all in the time I was there and the place was silent. As it is very old fashioned and has beautiful old furniture and big high ceilings felt a bit like a castle but was a bit creepy...however I enjoyed seeing the lovely furniture and imagining what it could be like. Restaurant next door was very nice and staff there were lovely. I slept well and bed was comfy enough.
A slightly quaint and quirky, very people and dog friendly hotel set in the wonderful location of Dunkeld.
The restaurant and bistro offer a good selection of well prepared dishes, with the Sunday roast beef dinner our favourite.
Our recently refurbished junior suite provided excellent accommodation for our 3 night stay.
We would love to return to this gorgeous apt. All the Charles Rennie Mackintosh touches were lovely. Plenty of space - the smaller bedroom was great for an extra guest. Very handy location opposite the Birnam Arts Centre and about 15 min stroll into Dunkeld. Delicious pizzas at Birnam Inn. A really enjoyable stay.
Clean, bright and airy room. Hotel beautifully decorated.
Breakfast had many choices and all were good with fresh coffee, what more could you want!
The owner was a friendly, helpful lady and made us feel very welcome.
Nice area with easy riverside walk to Dunkeld and lots of interesting walks nearby.
The Taybank has an awesome location right on the River Tay, with an outdoor dining area right on the bank. The staff went out of their way to be helpful and the breakfast "hamper" was charming. Breakfast was do-it-yourself and perfect for people on the go. All in all, a great experience.
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Dunkeld. i wished had more time to spend there and have chat with people were already staying in.
My stay at the Farmhouse B&B was too brief, but Theresa was a wonderful hostess. The house is beautiful, and next time, I will stay longer just totake in the scenery and relax.
The breakfast was fantastic and the fresh baked bread and jams were wonderful!
First time staying in this lovely,clean and cosy b and b. Trevor was very welcoming and an excellent host. Breakfast was delicious! Have stayed in a couple places in Dunkeld and this was the best. Would definitely stay here again.

The location is excellent for exploring Perthshire. Located in the countryside, very quiet and peaceful. It has everything you may need. Very spacious for 2 people, which is great for a change.
Loved everything about our accomodations in this charming place. The location is very convenient on a quiet side street, which is only a short walk to the Dunkeld & Birnam railway station.
