Forillon 3-bed house with great access to outdoors

My wife and I spent a week at Forillon, a welcome respite from the bustling city life. It was particularly meaningful for my wife, as she celebrated her birthday during our stay. The spacious, comfortable, and tranquil house provided the perfect setting for relaxation and rejuvenation.

The house is equipped with all the modern amenities, making our stay convenient and hassle-free. Additionally, its commitment to sustainability, with easy recycling options, was commendable.

As an avid cyclist, I was delighted to find secure bike storage in the shed, complete with hooks for three bikes and basic tools. While bike washing facilities were not available on the premises, Alyth Cyclery kindly allowed me to use their hose and cleaning equipment. The owner's friendliness and helpfulness epitomized the warm and welcoming attitude we encountered throughout Alyth.

Our host, Markus, ensured our comfort and provided invaluable suggestions for activities and attractions. His recommendation of blueberry picking on my wife's birthday turned out to be a delightful experience. She thoroughly enjoyed the meditative act of berry picking, and we had the added satisfaction of supporting local charities through our efforts.

Exploring the surrounding area on my bike was a personal highlight. The Cateran Gran Fondo Road adventure, with its 100 km of cycling bliss, was truly exceptional. The scenic roads and minimal traffic made for an unforgettable journey. While it's surprising that this area isn't overrun with cyclists, I appreciate its tranquility. I explored some of the gravel routes, which left me eager to return for more.

Beyond cycling, we also enjoyed walking in the beautiful Den O' Alyth, the Hill of Alyth, and the Bamff wildlands.

In summary, Forillon served as the perfect base for exploring this extraordinary part of Scotland. Our week-long stay left us relaxed, refreshed, and energized. I highly recommend this property and would happily give it a 5/5 rating, with the intention of returning in the future.

A great base for exploring an true gem of a location.

We had an excellent stay at The Forillion. The house is centrally located in Alyth and is equipped with everything you could need. We came as a group of three, and all the rooms were spacious, with two full-size bathrooms being a bonus. It truly felt like a home away from home.

The location is ideal for cycling or walking, with an abundance of trails and cycle routes in the stunning countryside surrounding Alyth. Markus was quick to respond to any questions I had and provided helpful advice on cycling routes, which was much appreciated.

We discovered a little gem nearby: The Alyth Hotel, just a short walk from the property. It offers excellent food, a good range of beers, and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. There are plenty of shops in the area, so you won't run short on supplies

Excellent stay

Forillion is a fabulous location! Close to necessities. Quiet back street. Great surrounding area for biking &amp; hill walking.
And a wonderful bike shop close by as well.
