Nice house terrible gardens
House was excellent but description of garden and surroundings including the “spectacular views” was totally misrepresented. The garden and surroundings would be better described as an “overgrown wilderness.” The main website page showing the views of the garden and immediate surroundings are extremely misleading and bear no resemblance to the reality,

Perfect private cottage
For ourselves, this was a perfect place to get away, totally private and extremely quiet. It's about 200m up a single track lane so you have to hope nobody is coming in the opposite when arriving or leaving. The garden in front of the cottage is totally enclosed so you cannot see the lane. The cottage is not large, but is very cosy and is ideally equipped. The Aga takes a bit of getting used to but there is also a small 2 ring electric hob if you do struggle. The Jacuzzi bath is a luxury, especially after a long walk. One thing to be aware of is that at night the area is in total darkness, so unless you put a light on you cannot see anything so a middle of the night toilet visit means feeling your way around trying not to bump into anything. The nearest town of Aberfeldy about 5-10 minutes drive, has everything you require including a nice café serving coffee and cakes. If you enjoy walking there are plenty of walks in the area, including Dull Forrest which you can do from the cottage door. For a more challenging walk Schiehallion is about 20-25 minutes drive away. Will deninitely try to return again next year.

We really enjoyed our stay at Smithy cottage. We had very hot weather and found the cottage quite warm because we couldn’t turn the aga off-I’m sure most of the year this isn’t a problem!! It’s a perfect spot for exploring the local area, few minutes drive from Aberfeldy but in a very quiet spot. The garden was quite overgrown meaning our kids aged 9 and 4 couldn’t really explore as there were lots of nettles/thistles. The cottage is well equipped with everything you need making it a real home from home. Would happily return for another stay.

A very peaceful break
Extremely well equipped property in a beautiful location. Little tricky to locate the key safe and property itself (as no sign on gate etc). Nice change to use the AGA! Overal very relaxing stay.

There was a brass sign on the gate. I will look into this and replace if now missing. The pixie face has fallen from its usual place with the recent gales - so glad overall you enjoyed your stay at Smithy cottage. Elizabeth

Fabulous holiday
We had a wonderful time, the cottage was rustic but had all mod cons. It was very well equipped and we loved cooking with the aga. We enjoyed sitting in the garden and saw some deer come through. We did some lovely walks from the cottage including walking to Dull a few times. Scenery was beautiful. We also enjoyed white water rafting with ‘Splash’ in Aberfeldy and managed to see the beavers. We would love to go back and highly recommend the cottage for a holiday.

Heerlijk verblijf in sfeervolle cottage
De cottage is prachtig gerenoveerd, met prima voorzieningen (zoals een jacuzzi, heerlijke opgemaakt bedden en handdoeken). Fijn dat er in de keuken veel aanwezig is, waar gebruik van kan worden gemaakt (zout, specerijen, etc.).De tuin is prachtig en fijn beschut, zodat je er al snel kunt zitten. Aberfeldy is een leuke plaats op een paar kilometer afstand. Boodschappen doen gaat prima op de fiets!~ Het inchecken ging niet helemaal goed, omdat wij de instructies niet hadden ontvangen; maar dat werd door Elizabeth (telefonisch) gelukkig snel opgelost. Kortom, een aanrader.

Absolutely idyllic!
Smithy's cottage is the most delightful little cottage imaginable and everything about it is absolutely perfect. It is very cute and pretty, in a lovely setting, very nicely furnished and maintained, and totally comfortable in every way. (Even the wifi works perfectly!). It feels beautifully quiet and remote, but is near everything. Only 10 mn drive from the lovely little town of Aberfeldy and in the middle of a beautiful and interesting part of Scotland with much to see and do. We saw lots of beautiful butterflies in the garden, many red squirrels, dears, pheasants and even a couple of hares while walking or driving around. We visited castles and gardens, lovely little towns, saw spectacular landscapes and the oldest tree in Britain! We could have played golf or gone canoeing or fishing or even gone to the iconic cinema of Aberfeldy... But most of all, we loved returning to the cottage everyday and were sad to leave. Thoroughly recommend it!

Dear Marie -Chantal, I am so glad you enjoyed the tranquility of Smithy cottage. We have just returned from there and enjoyed ourselves enormously. My son, Jolyon went canoeing and swimming in a wet suit, of course, from Kenmore beach, Loch Tay and loved it and just 5 miles from the cottage. Every time we go we find different things to do, including the cinema and thrift shop! We went to Stirling castle which is not far away but often overlooked as it is well worth a visit. Hoping you may come back again to enjoy the activities that you missed out on this time. Best wishes Elizabeth

Sehr schönes Cottage!!
Dieses Cottage ist absolut reizvoll. Es ist liebevoll eingerichtet und hat alles, was man braucht. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Wir haben nichts vermisst. Da es sich ein klein wenig außerhalb von Aberfeldy befindet, kann man wirklich Ruhe und Erholung finden. Es bietet sich aber auch gut an, um von hieraus zu vielen Ausflügen zu starten.

keurig, net en compleet ingerichte cottage
Met zijn vieren 1 week in deze unieke cottage verbleven met veel genoegen. Zeer compleet ingericht (met zelfs div keukenkruiden en folie). Netjes, schoon. Leuke ligging. Helaas niet direct zicht op de bergen door de begroeide tuin en een wat kleine woonkamer. Zeer goede prijs/kwaliteitsverhouding

Gemütliches, warmes, liebevoll eingerichtetes Haus
Das Haus hat einen sehr natürlichen Charme und wir haben uns sehr sehr wohl darin gefühlt. Es ist sehr gut ausgestattet, wir haben nichts vermisst. Für wirklich kalte Tage gibt es Heizdecken und der AGA Herd hält das kuschelig warm. Man kann in der Umgebung gut wandern und es liegt so zentral, dass man in zwei einhalb Stunden Glasgow, Inverness und die Ostküste erreichen kann. Optimal!

Schönes Cottage mitten in der Natur
Wie sind zu 6 nach Schottland aufgebrochen (Alter zwischen 13-47) und haben dieses gemütliche Cottage gemietet. Wir kamen mitten in der Nacht an und konnten uns gleich in saubere, frisch gemachte, gemütliche Betten legen. Und als wir den Morgen darauf gefrühstückt haben, stand ungefähr 4 Meter vom Haus entfernt im Garten ein Reh und schaute uns an. Man fühlte sich sofort wohl. Haus: Besteht aus 3 Schlafzimmer mit 2x Doppelbetten und 1x 2 Einzelbetten, einer Küche mit Esstisch, einem kleinen Wohnzimmer mit einem Zweisitzer, einem Toiletteraum mit Waschbecken in dem einen Schlafzimmer und einem tollen Badezimmer. Alles sehr klein und für ein Pärchen mit Kind sicher auch perfekt, aber für 5 Erwachsene mit Teenager viel zu eng und klein. Es war alles sauber und wirkte mit viel Liebe hergerichtet. Auch der Garten war schön und gepflegt. Umgebung: Die Natur dort haut einen einfach um. Es ist alles wunderschön. Die Straßen sind etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig und nicht unbedingt etwas für Leute, denen beim Autofahren leicht schlecht wird. Aktivitäten: Wir haben den höchsten Berg Schottlands Ben Nevis bestiegen, das war auch für "Nicht-bergsteiger" machbar, haben eine Bootstour auf dem Loch Ness gemacht und haben Edingburgh und Glasgow besucht. Leider hatten wir nicht so gutes Wetter, aber der Urlaub war trotzdem klasse und sehr beeindruckend. Einen großen Anteil daran hatte auch das Smithy Cottage in dem man sich einfach wohl fühlte.

Perfect place to stay!
We stayed for 10 days in this very nice cottage. Wonderful place, very clean, confortable and decorated with lots of taste. A lot to see in the area (and beyond of course): Cairngorms, Stirling, Edinburgh to name a few... Aberfeldy, the town nearby, is very nice with all we need (as well as good restaurants with very good recommandations from Elizabeth). Last but not least we had the chance to see deers passing by near the house almost every night! We were sad to leave the place... Would recommend 100%!

Thanks Olivier that was a very nice review. I am so glad you enjoyed your stay. My son and I love visiting the cottage ourselves.: Its his favourite place too. Aberfeldy is a charming town - not too big and not too small to have on your doorstep. The deer do visit the garden because I have seen their hoof marks on various occasions. Best wishes Elizabeth

Charming, cozy and comfortable
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful, charming and cozy cottage. We were also impressed with the location near Aberfeldy and Pitlochry. There were many good restaurants nearby and plenty of things to do, even on a couple of rainy days, which we suppose are unavoidable on trips to Scotland. But we also had really nice weather and enjoyed a number of hikes. The cottage is very well appointed, with everything one could possibly need. We like the fact that cottage is not near any main streets, cuddled away in a quiet litte village up a hill with a great view of the valley.

Didn't want to leave - perfect stay.
Everything about this cottage was perfect for a few days over Christmas. The kitchen is over-equipped with everything you need and of very good quality. We were very comfortable. This place has a lot of character and I would highly recommend to other travellers. There's beautiful walks and Castle Menzies very close by.

Thanks so much for giving this lovely review. I have been in charge of all the renovations and it was very hard work so a good review really does mean something to me. Of course the area around the cottage, Weem. Aberfeldy, Glen Lyon, Kenmore and many surrounding gardens, castles and sites to visit does add to the enchantment of the cottage. The re-conditioned Aga means the cottage is always warm and welcoming whatever time you arrive for your stay.

Lovely in every way. Quaint, but clean in a very quiet location
We stayed for a week touring the area around Camserney. Our sty was delightful in every way, and the location was central to our Scotland visit's including Fort William, Inverness, Edinburgh & Pitlochry. As a runner I loved my runs up into the hills, the scenery was breathtaking. Scotland is beautiful, and the Smithy Cottage was a perfect fir for 2 couples to enjoy.

Un petit havre de paix
Une location typique comme on en voit presque plus en Ecosse. L'extérieur est tout simplement charmant avec ses espaces verts bien entretenus, sa façade en pierre et son toit de chaume superbe. L'intérieur est soignée et décorée avec goût. L'équipement est parfait (ustensiles de cuisine, lave-vaisselle, lave-linge...). La salle de bain répond à tous les goûts (bains, balnéo, douche). Les literies sont très confortables. Bref, on se sent rapidement comme à la maison et on en redemande. A louer sans réfléchir !!

A Delightful Cottage in an Idyllic Setting
We enjoyed tremendously our stay in Camserney. The cottage is a charming mix of traditional and modern. The kitchen was equipped with all the amenities , making it easy to create a either a simple or elaborate meal. It was not too cold during our stay, but the mornings were chilly- the kitchen has an Aga cooker, which kept the space toasty. I was amazed at how easy it was to cook on. The living room is cozy with lots of books and interesting reads about the history of the village and area. My husband and I were traveling with another couple, and we all found the bedrooms to be comfortable. The main bathroom is equipped with all the modern conveniences including a heated floor and towel rack. Owner Elizabeth provided lots of information and was available by phone or email if we had any questions or problems. Another great feature of the cottage was it's location. It tucked away on a street off the main road, and a walk up the hill led us to amazing views and even a hidden lake. It is about a ten minute drive to the town of Aberfeldy, where we able to choose from a great mix of restaurants and pubs. My husband is an avid golfer and spent one afternoon playing at the Aberfeldy golf course. We made day trips into Edinburgh and Saint Andrews- both less than 2 hours away.
