Balnearn House

Overview

Built in late 1900, Balnearn House is the home of Claire and Mark Dimmock. Balnearn House offers bed and breakfast where comfort and a friendly atmosphere are top priority and this comes across in the high quality service offered to all guests.

Aberfeldy is situated amid some of Scotland's most breathtaking scenery. Balnearn House can be found close to 'The Birks of Aberfeldy' where there are wonderful walks through the Moness Glen, surrounded by cascading waterfalls. On the edge of the town, the silvery River Tay flows under General Wade's bridge built in 1733. At one point in history it was the only bridge fording the River Tay which contributed to the town's importance.

Aberfeldy is an excellent area for a variety of outdoor activities including touring the countryside, cycling, walking, kayaking, white water rafting, climbing, golfing, fishing, or just taking time out to relax, which makes Balnearn House an ideal base. The picturesque town of Pitlochry with its popular Festival Theatre is only a 20 minute drive away. Blair Castle, which is well worth a visit, and the House of Bruar for an ultimate shopping experience are approximately 45 minutes drive away. For whisky enthusiasts, the area is well-endowed with distilleries, starting at our own Aberfeldy Distillery.

This delightful guest house has 10 bedrooms with attractive gardens to the front and rear of the property. Ample private parking is also available. Wireless Broadband is also available throughout the house for those who need to stay in touch with the world they left behind.
