The Clock tower is a beautiful house with large windows, where we had a very pleasant stay. It is very quiet and not far from the town Perth and its commodities. The access to the A9 is direct and two a few minutes away.
The house is very comfortable and well equiped to cook, wash and dry your clothes. The upstairs room is very luminous and you can easily ventilate if the sun has warmed it during the day with its three big windows. You can also relax after a long walk in the confortable armchairs and footrest or on the sofa, enjoying a book or watching TV or You Tube.
Our neighbours Winniefred and Derek were very friendly and gave us many advices on places to visit, local events or provided help if necessary.

We had a wonderful week at the Clocktower and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend staying here. It’s in a beautiful setting with views of Kinnoul Hill which makes it a perfect spot to relax in and feel close to nature yet very close to the lovely city of Perth.
The accommodation is spotlessly clean, very comfortable and well equipped.
Communication with Susan was excellent and we really appreciate the thought and hard work that makes the Clocktower a great place to stay.

All too short a time away on our first break since lock-down. As always we came to place that we would want to be in as it is always clean, tidy and welcoming. The facilities are first class and everything is kept up to date. To be honest, staying in the Clock Tower means we can get to anywhere we want to go in Scotland easily as the location is brilliant! We will be back as soon as we can as we can't think of a better place to stay when visiting Scotland!

This was our second stay in the Clocktower. We enjoyed it even more than last year. A superb location, with great walks in the immediate vicinity, and all of Central Scotland and most of the Southern Highlands in reach for a day trip. The Clocktower is a lovely building, and we enjoyed the friendliness of being on a courtyard shared by others (may not be to everyone's liking). We could see what everyone was up to through the big picture windows (they could see us too!).
We'll be back I'm sure.

Our stay in Scotland.
Upon arrival we were impressed with the location very quit, with lovely surroundings. We were given instruction for the key. When we entered the clock tower it was clean and tidy, well equipped for all our needs. Additional cleaning and sanitising products we're made available, which reassured us during these uncertain times.
We used the clock tower as our base to explore Scotland, ideal really as there is so much to see.
Customer service was excellent, Susan popping over to check we were happy and if we needed anything. Very friendly making us feel very welcome. Susan had a good knowledge of the area and was able to suggest places to visit.
We will be recommending this property to family and friends should they visit Scotland. We would definitely use this property again should we visit the area.

We loved our stay at Kinfauns. Such a wonderful place and yet so close to Perth and the southern highlands. There was lovely walking and some fabulous mountain biking right on the doorstep. We’ll definitely be back.

Wonderful Accommodation
Wonderful Accommodation
We recently spent 5 nights at this lovely courtyard development which is perfectly placed to explore Perth and the surrounding area .
Our accommodation was in the Clocktower which was very well equipped with everything you need to cook meals. The beds were very comfortable and the lounge spacious and bright. Everything was spotless and because of the situation with Covid, additional specialised cleaning products had been left for us.
The owners uncle, Derek, and his wife, Winnie, live in one of the cottages and are on hand should you need anything and are happy to advise on places to visit .
We had a lovely time and hope to return for another visit soon .

The Clocktower is fantastic self catering accommodation situated in a secluded location just outside Perth. The surrounding countryside has some nice walks and it was the perfect base for us for the Scottish Six Day orienteering event.

As a frequent visitor to the Coach Houses and the Clock Tower in particular, we are always delighted to be there. The facilities remain excellent and there is everything there that you want want for a self-catering holiday. It is is an ideal location for anywhere of interest in Scotland except for the far north west. The visitor attractions in Perth and the surrounding area are also excellent, so there is always plenty to do as well as be able to relax in very comfortable surroundings in the Clock Tower. We would recommend the Clock Tower to anyone.

We stayed for a week in The Clocktower and had a lovely time.
It is an extremely well fitted property, very comfortable, with all the desired amenities.
Being right next to the horse riding school was delightful.
We thoroughly recommend it.
Only two comments:
- the kitchen could do with some oven gloves :-)
- beware the speedbumps on the road going up the hill by the property!

A truly lovely place to stay and a great base for a holiday- the house was clean, fresh and a real delight. The hosts were extremely pleasant and a small welcome kit of basic groceries was a nice touch. Highly recommend.

We are multiple users of the Coach Houses over a number of years now and have always been totally satisfied by the excellent facilities and service provided during our stays. For anyone wanting a central self-catering location to visit Scotland, the Coach Houses are absolutely ideal. I am sure that we won't be going anywhere else for some time to come.

Quiet picturesque location just a few miles out of Perth. Accommodation was comfortable but could have been cleaner and was cold overnight despite it being Summer.
That being said we enjoyed our stay and would consider staying there again in the future.

We stayed here the week after Christmas and were very impressed with the house, the beautiful surroundings and the area in general. There is so much to do - Perth is a beautiful town and very centrally located for trips to Edinburgh, St Andrews, Loch Tay and the beautiful Scottish countryside.

As a regular client we would not go anywhere else to stay when visiting the Perth area for family or recreational reasons. The accommodation is always excellently presented, comfortable, well equipped and the location perfect for our needs. Who could ask for anything more?

We always enjoy staying at Towerview in any of the available apartments. This time we were in the Clocktower again and we continue to be more than satisfied with the accommodation, services and location.
We have no hesitation in recommending Towerview as the best self-catering place to stay when visiting the Perth area that we have experienced on our many visits north of the border.

Our stay at the clock tower was both relaxing and comfortable it's situated at the rear of a castle but close to all to amenities so your never far away from beautiful scenery and if you like the hustle and bustle of the town it's close enough so our stay at the clock tower was great and recommend it to anyone who likes a bit of peace and quiet but not to far away from the town

This was our second stay at the clocktower, convenient for visiting family in Perth. As previously everything we could have needed was included and the property was warm, clean, comfortable, and plenty of room for 4 of us. We'll return again.

Stayed here back in June for a family week long break and when we found out we needed to visit Perthshire for an event we didn’t hesitate to book again for the short stay we needed. Due to their being only 4 of us this time we chose the clocktower (stayed at coach house 5 last time). Standard of accommodation very high and first class service from Susan from the booking procedure to check out. Spacious and well furnished with everything you need for home from home experience. Location ideal for relaxing but also very central if you need to travel to any of the nearby Scottish cities. Great walks nearby for our dog as well. Highly recommend to anyone looking for very friendly, helpful family run accommodation. We will certainly be returning again.

We had an excellent holiday at The Clocktower, in a spacious, comfortable well fitted conversion. Looking out over the courtyard,which includes eight other properties,there is ample room for car parking. From the kitchen window there are stables and fields for horses. A very quiet, relaxing stay in a very secluded area yet close enough to roads to explore the county and beyond.
We intended to visit sixteen months earlier, but were unable to, in the meantime our communications with Susan were dealt with in a very friendly, efficient and professional manner.

We are a family of four, including two children. We stayed at the Clock Tower in mid August 2021. We loved the house and the surrounding area. The house was very comfortable, it had everything we needed, from kitchen appliances -except a dishwasher and everything was in perfect working order. We liked how light and airy it was and how much character it has. We particularly enjoyed speaking to the residents Derek and lovely Wendy and playing with their dog Ben. This was a wonderful addition to the holiday! We went to relax and didn't feel we had to move around much to find lovely things to do. We loved walking every morning to the pond located on the grounds of the property. My daughter rode horses from the riding school, again on the grounds of the property. We also did longer walks to the nearby forest where we enjoyed fabulous views. From the house you can drive to Perth and shop for groceries. Wendy recommended we visit Pitlochery which we really enjoyed. It's a great place to stay if you want to wake up and enjoy the countryside. We woke up to the sound of cows mooing and saw horses daily. So if you love nature, peace and relaxation, this would be the place for you.
