Bluestone Church On Loch Earn

Bluestone Church is a unique, warm and welcoming cottage – your own home-from-home in the lovely loch-side village of St. Fillans, Perthshire.    The joy of the location is a perfect central highland setting, yet so easily accessible, from the major cities of Stirling, Glasgow, Perth & Edinburgh, and the scenery is just wonderful at any time of the year.

The house is warm and cosy, with a wood burning fire  being a feature of the kitchen and dining room, and raised sun-room area.   A comfortable lounge with doors opening out to the front garden and view across the river to the trees and the hill beyond.  Upstairs there are two bedrooms.  It is a clever conversion, and offers modern, comfortable and stylish accommodation, with private gardens and parking.   The house is ideally suited to 2 to 4 guests.   (No smoking/no pets).

Great care and attention is paid to ensuring our guests have a comfortable stay.   You may choose your preference from our range of quality bed linens.  All beds will be made up for especially for you – sheets are Egyptian percale cotton, for pillows and duvets choose luxury goose-down/ hypoallergenic or cotton cellular blankets.  White towels, top covers, throw-over rugs, hot water bottles, all provided.  The beds are slightly longer than usual, and can be arranged as twins, or zipped together to make a super king-size.  There are two upstairs bedrooms.   The front bedroom has an en-suite bath, basin & toilet.   The rear bedroom has a power shower (on the landing, and toilet and basin, just downstairs).

The house is very well equipped with everything you might need.  There is a 40 “ plasma screen Sky TV, MP3 player, TV's and DVD's in all rooms.  W-Fi Internet access, and ex directory telephone.
