Such a friendly welcome from Dot and Brenda. Sitting room is spacious and comfortable so after supper I settled for an evening in by the fire and was given a pot of tea and home-made muffins! My bedroom was warm, beds comfortable. Breakfast was delicious with more home baking and a doggy bag to take home with me. I stayed... More

We couldn't fault our recent stay at the Waterbury Guest House, the location was close to the station and a short walk to all the bars and restaurants in Dunkeld. The breakfasts were amazing and had the extra added touch of great home baking which, too full from the delicious breakfasts, we usually took with us as sustenance on our... More

Despite it being their first week, Brenda and Dot coped amazingly well when my family descended upon them. No small feat! They were extremely welcoming and friendly and would always be ready to help out with any request. I was wide awake at 5am attempting to write a speech for my wedding when Dot discovered me in the lounge. She... More

This friendly, family run guest house in an attractive stone terrace affords very clean and comfortable accommodation. The location is central in Birnam, allowing very easy access to the tourist attractions. The well-furnished rooms are cosy, the service is friendly but professional, and the menu for their cooked breakfast was excellent. There are some pleasant personal touches thoughout: Tunnock's caramel... More

This B&B had everything I was looking for - warm reception from Shannon (including a glass of sherry), comfortable bedroom, and a very tasty breakfast (I recommend the scrambled eggs with smoked salmon). Location is great for access to a number of sights (Birnam Oak, Beatrix Potter Gardens) and Birnam is a cute little town. There is a communal living... More

We only stayed at Waterbury for one night, which was a shame because it was lovely and we could happily have spent more time in Birnam and Dunkeld. Shannon was a lovely host, the room was very comfortable, great shower and the B&B has a lovely communal lounge. Fantastic choice of home cooked breakfasts and the food is delicious and... More

Having made an error in booking a room for the previous night (our fault!) Shannon called us and sorted everything out before our arrival. Upon arrival we were offered sherry and whiskey, a really nice touch. The rooms were homely, clean and very comfortable. The honesty bar was a unique touch, and welcomed whilst waiting for the Missus to get... More

We knew we had picked a good B & B when we walked through the door and were made welcome with a glass of very good sherry. Our hosts couldn't have been more accommodating, and breakfast next morning was superb. The hotel is in a lovely, historic building with fine features like long windows and high ceilings. And such a... More
