The Townhouse Aberfeldy

Aberfeldy

Built in 1895, The Townhouse Aberfeldy sits on the edge of Aberfeldy’s town centre, a rural town in Highland Pethshire. It is only 5 minutes' walk from the cafés, shops, bars and restaurants, as well as a cinema. Loved everything! We were in the Studio Apt at ground level. It was very convenient and super easy on the knees. Autos passing by could be heard but nothing to complain about. The full and extra large kitchen was our interest since we wanted a few nights to simply relax and prepare our own dinners. A very large and easy entry parking lot directly behind the building was just perfect. A Co-Op super market is only a block opposite the hotel-very convenient! Breakfast was delicious and the staff very helpful and kind. When in Aberfeldy again, we will definitely return and can highly recommend it without any hesitation.
