In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, Burnside Cottage has implemented several health and safety measures to ensure the well-being of its guests. While the cottage may not always have a day or more free between bookings, it guarantees that pillows and duvets have been quarantined for at least 72 hours and are treated with a UV sterilization lamp between guests. Additionally, all laundry is cleaned using a Dettol laundry cleanser, and mattress protectors are changed after each visit, following the guidelines set by UK and Scottish government authorities.
Beyond the comforts of the cottage, guests can immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the surrounding area, with opportunities for skiing and sledding in the nearby mountains. Cultural highlights include the Temple Gallery and Pitlochry Festival Theatre, while landmarks such as Castle Menzies and Wade's Bridge offer a glimpse into the region's rich history.
