The Steading is one of those special places to create a memorable holiday with family and friends. Located in the heart of Highland Perthshire and surrounded by the incredible scenery which inspired Robert Burns to write his 'Birks of Aberfeldy', this contemporary retreat offers guests the ideal blend of modern luxury living, fused with the history and landscape right outside your door to explore. The interior combines traditional Scottish Wool with the finest linen, and a fusion between Scottish heritage and Scandinavian hints creates a luxurious and modern environment in which to relax after a day's excursions. The area has a rich variety of things to do, with walks and cycle paths in every direction, whiskey distilleries to visit and country pursuits to enjoy.
