We built The Roost on our 14 acre smallholding just south of Blairgowrie in Perthshire. The first cabin arrived in 2021, and now there are three. Each one was designed from scratch, each one has its own character, but they’re all built to do one thing, help you switch off properly.

We’re past a thousand five star reviews now. We’ve got guests who have stayed with us eight times or more, and a couple who travelled all the way from Sydney, Australia to visit us. That probably tells you something before you even book.

The cabins are for two. They’re warm in winter, bright in summer and properly kitted out whatever the season. You’ll share your stay with a flock of sheep in the neighbouring fields, including the Hungarian Racka, easy to spot with their curly horns.

Then there are the pigs. Dave is black and white and every bit the ring master. Ginger has a touch of blond, he’s been caught on the wrong side of the fence more than once. Then there’s Rusty, the cheeky wee red one of the three.

There’s also a flock of turkeys who will make their presence known, and then there are the views: the surrounding fields and the Sidlaw Hills, which never get old.
