Situated in the picturesque Highland region of Scotland, this luxurious vacation home near Perth offers a serene escape for up to six guests. Nestled in a secluded conservation area at the Dupplin Lochs, the property boasts three beautifully renovated double bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities, ensuring comfort and privacy for all visitors. Guests can enjoy a lovely glass sunroom and an outdoor hot tub, both providing stunning views over the expansive moors. The lochs, designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), are completely private, teeming with Scottish bird and wildlife, and are just a short ten-minute drive from Perth city center.
The property’s location allows for direct access to the lochs, where guests can picnic by the water's edge, surrounded by swans and a variety of birdlife.

Additionally, a separate games room equipped with table tennis and other activities provides entertainment options, while the inviting living area encourages relaxation with its open double doors and breathtaking views.
Safety is a paramount concern at Dupplin Estate, especially in light of the ongoing pandemic. The property is left vacant for 72 hours between stays, and enhanced cleaning protocols have been implemented, including the use of a fogging machine for thorough disinfection. The estate follows strict two-stage cleaning protocols developed by the Scottish Association of Self Caterers, ensuring a safe environment for guests. Staff members have completed specialized training in COVID-19 cleaning procedures, reinforcing the commitment to guest safety and community health.
In adherence to environmental considerations, some soft furnishings have been temporarily removed, and single-use toiletries have replaced refillable products in the bathrooms. While the property may appear less 'pretty' due to these changes, the focus remains on providing a clean and safe space. Guests will find basic amenities like hand sanitizers and disinfectants readily available during their stay. For those seeking outdoor activities, the surrounding area offers opportunities for golfing, cycling, and family-friendly attractions, such as Perth Ice Rink and Phoenix Falconry, making it an ideal getaway for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike.
