1 Bedroom Cottage in Dunning

Thimblewynd holiday rental has been described as one of the "best in Scotland with hot tub" (The Scotsman Newspaper).
Born in 1860, Thimblewynd is a C-Listed period cottage found in the historic village of Dunning, Perthshire. Thimblewynd has grown into a luxury romantic hideaway with plenty of benefits.
Secluded Hot tub experience? Yes. Log Burner? Yes. Gastropub on the corner? Yes. Village shop at the bottom of the street? Yes that as well.
We are chuffed to have Thimblewynd in our lives and are delighted to share it with you.
It's a place that just feels right and a huge investment has been taken to ensure it has everything a couple may need to enjoy a special time together (hot tub, log fire, smart tv, wifi, record player, board games...)
Reviews show that while guests enjoy a real sense of seclusion and getting away from it all, they also enjoy all the amenities of our village location. The local shop is incredibly well stocked and perfectly situated should you have forgotten to bring an everyday (or romantic) essential.
What is particularly unique is our secluded walled garden. In the sunshine you can enjoy the hammock and bbq. In Scotland we all know you can't guarantee the weather, so we have installed covered areas to let you enjoy the space no matter what. The funky Dutch Tub remains uncovered to let you star gaze together. It's pretty special. Hot water straight from an outdoor tap for an easy fill, then light the fire to keep the water warm. Toast marshmallows, sausages from the luxury of the tub......
Inside, it continues to be about luxury and being together. The kitchen is fully equipped. The living space is cosy and full of stuff to do. Wifi (obviously), board games, books, a vinyl record player with LPs (or bring your own) and Smart TV (easily link to your netflix or amazon prime account). The log burner is always a hit. Upstairs you find the large bedroom, with king-size brass bed, shuttered windows and a beautiful view. The ensuite bathroom includes a drench shower, towels, robes and organic bath products.

Summary: Working over Christmas we booked this break to get away from all the madness. Just us and the dog. Thimblewynd was just perfect and we loved it. Peaceful and comfy throughout we chilled out in front of thr log burner or in the hot tub, the tv wasn't on once! We eat at the Kirkstyle Inn which was lovely but made ourselves breakfast and snacks in the well equipped kitchen. There was not a single thing we could fault and we loved every minute. Thanks to Maggie for hosting us.

Summary: Such a peaceful and lovely break, loved the wood burning stove, the shower was delightful, despite not such good weather we managed to enjoy the lovely secluded garden, even if we nearly turned ourselves into soup in the Dutch tub, think we were a bit enthusiastic with the fire!We had everything we wanted, loved the selection of games and books and only wished we’d booked for longer!

Summary: I want to firstly say that this property was as advertised, in a nice village and really pleasant to stay in and did have a hot tub (although it was old and in need of updating, a part of the filter was broken and kept floating about the tub for the 2hrs we spent in it). What let it down for us was that the hot tub stopped working on the first night of our 2 day stay. We had specifically booked Thimblewynd because it advertised a "secluded hot tub" so to have it break on the first night and have no hot tub for the next couple of days was really disappointing. Whilst these things happen, it appeared that the tub was at risk of breaking down after speaking with a source close to the host who came to check it for us on the second day. The host did not contact us after this to acknowledge the tub being broken and almost a week later have still had no contact from her even after going through the site and then directly messaging her. We both came home feeling really deflated and upset after spending around £500 for a break that we ultimately ended up not receiving. I would not recommend Thimblewynd due to the lack of communication from the host after a massive issue which abruptly ended our "secluded hot tub" break. A partial refund would be the correct thing to do here but again, the host has decided to ignore this situation.

Summary: Everything you need on your doorstep (pub + shop). Hot tub is wonderful. Cottage although modernised still retained it's aged and quaint feel. Great relaxing stay

Summary: Lovely charming cottage in good location, with country pub a few steps away and great beer garden. People in the area very welcoming. Cottage was very clean and check in straightforward and helpful. Lovely big bedroom and great en-suite. Garden was secure as advertised which was great for our dog but if I am being picky the garden was a bit tired looking which impacted on the time we wanted to spend in the garden. Hot tub in the garden was fab though.
