The Steading, Aberfeldy, Perthshire


The Steading in Aberfeldy, Perthshire, offers an exceptional guesthouse experience in a home designed by an award-winning architect. Inspired by Scandinavian design, this unique property combines contemporary style with modern comforts, set against a tranquil and secluded backdrop in the heart of Scotland. It is a destination that promises both relaxation and a strong sense of place, surrounded by unspoilt hills and the charm of a listed hamlet of thatched cottages.

Accommodation is provided in three individually designed en suite rooms, each with its own character. Steading 1 is an upstairs king-size room with stunning views across to the wooded Weem Hill and a large walk-in shower. Steading 2 is a super king-size room on the ground floor, also available as a twin, with rustic garden views and direct access to the loggia. It too has a large walk-in shower. The Loft is a self-contained king-size en suite built among rowan trees, offering breathtaking views to Ben Lawers and westward.

The Loft also features an en suite with a bath and handheld shower.

Every room is thoughtfully prepared with details that enhance the guest experience. White Company towels, Anta textiles and stoneware, Glen Lyon coffee, homemade lemon shortbread and useful touches such as corkscrews, wineglasses and cafetières create a sense of comfort and care.

Breakfast at The Steading is a highlight, with a menu that reflects the best of locally sourced and organic produce. Guests can enjoy home-grown rhubarb infused with orange, organic yoghurt, freshly laid eggs, locally milled oatmeal porridge, Blair Athol Watermill breads and Glenlyon roasted coffee. It is an indulgent and wholesome start to the day, prepared with attention to both quality and sustainability.

The location makes The Steading ideal for exploring Highland Perthshire and beyond. Just three miles west of the market town of Aberfeldy in the Upper Tay Valley, it provides easy access to a wide range of activities. Hill walking, cycling, mountain biking, golf, salmon and trout fishing, clay pigeon shooting and water sports such as kayaking, gorge walking and white water rafting are all available nearby. Visitors can also explore cultural and historic sites, including Castle Menzies and Aberfeldy’s selection of art galleries.

The Steading is a rare combination of architectural elegance, modern comfort and a superb location. Whether for a short break or a longer stay, it offers a peaceful retreat that captures the essence of Highland Perthshire.
