This fascinating small castle is close to the River Tummel, where you can fish for trout in season, and is full of character with a view over the river to Schiehallion mountain. Down by the riverbank there is a bonfire site where you can gather fallen branches and sit around the camp fire of an evening with family and friends. The garden is unenclosed so, being close to the river, small children should be supervised at all times. Dogs should be supervised when outside. There is a lovely walk along the river to the first hydro electric dam built in Scotland in the 1930s.
The space
The house sleeps 8 in four bedrooms. On the ground floor, which is up some steps, there is a sitting room with sofas and easy chairs, TV and DVD player. Off this is the kitchen/dining room with all modern equipment. There is a twin bedroom with a shower/wet room adjacent with heated floor. On the first floor there is a small twin bedroom, a family bathroom with bath with shower over, basin and WC, and there is the master bedroom in the tower, overlooking the river, with four-poster bed. Off this is a steep, narrow stairs (curtained off from the main room) to the top tower room which has twin beds and wonderful views from the windows.
Guest access
Whole house in private location but the garden is not fenced off. There is mown grass around the house and extending to the riverbank.
Other things to note
This is a wonderful area for walking, birdwatching, visiting historic sites, theatre, shopping and so much more.

The house has all the amenities we could have asked for: kitchen, fireplace, WiFi, washer and dryer, dishwasher, and everything in working order. There is plenty to do in the area, whether it be hiking, sightseeing or eating out.
BarbaraNewtown, Pennsylvaniahttps://a0.muscache.com/im/pictures/user/User/original/29876b45-ae45-493f-ba05-0c3e52b4e703.jpeg?im_w=24052 weeks agoEast Gate Lodge was the perfect choice for us. The grounds of Dunalastair Estate were perfect for this group of birders. If you don't plan on cooking dinners, you may want to plan your meals carefully. We were out and about many days and had a bit of scrambling to figure out what to do for dinner. The property was just as described with anything you could need.

It was easy to find, the directions are spot on and Rose was very easy to communicate with. Early access was granted which was amazing. Every amenity listed was available and there was a lovely welcome tray with tea, coffee and biscuits waiting for us. We would love to book again, we loved the place. Thank you!

Lots of walking, hiking, swimming and paddleboarding. Host was very helpful recommending safe and wind free spots on the water. Stunning location, loved the look of and view from the house. Children loved using the fire pit for roasting marshmallows and sausages.
Edmund9 years on AirbnbNone5January 2024There once was a man called Ed
‘I’d like to go to Scotland’ he said
For good value for money
It’s snowy AND sunny
And a very comfortable bed!
Thanks for a lovely stay!
ErinColumbus, OhioNone5November 2023This castle cottage was exactly what we were looking for in Scotland. We wanted a home base where we could take day trips from and only 30 minute drive to the train. It was a very cozy place and easy to cook meals in the kitchen! Rose was very responsive and helpful with any questions.
Penny7 years on AirbnbNone5November 2023The cottage is spacious, cosy and full of character. We settled in quickly and found everything had been prepared for our arrival.
We really enjoyed exploring the area- there were lots of great walks nearby.
We also took the train from Rannoch to Mallaig which had stunning views.
We’d love to return to the area and to this cottage.
Rose was quick to respond to our messages.
Tracy6 years on AirbnbNone5April 2023Enjoyed a great week with my family, including my grandchildren and my granddog. Loved being here, didn’t want to leave.

Deer and rabbits and red squirrels around the house
It was very cost and warm despite it getting to negative 17 one night. Had snow falling which we loved being from Australia
Bird feeder outside kitchen was cool and we did archery with Jerry which was great fun
Would love to come back
