Situated on an elevated site overlooking the town of Aberfeldy and the sweeping River Tay, Dun Aluinn enjoys 5.5 acres of private grounds with an extensive terrace with stunning views down the Tay Valley to Schiehallion.

Originally built in 1909, the house had been extensively refurbished throughout to the highest of standards and is now available to rent as a luxury large holiday home.

For special dinners, sit around the bronze and oak table, 5.5m long, the table is a single piece of casted bronze – it’s the longest bronze table in the world!

Dun Aluinn frames a superb setting, but also offers all the key facilities for a successful business / corporate event, product launch or strategic retreat for your executive team. Thanks to the stylish layout of the house, you have the opportunity to run several breakout sessions both within the house and on the terrace.

You say...

Simplicity isn’t simple. I select these words carefully to best describe Dun Aluinn House. The attention to detail, the care, the many hours of thought, of pre planning, the selection process, every item in place, nothing forgotten… results in a superb homely environment above all expectations. A place to escape leaving memories that last forever. When you stay there albeit for a short period everything fits in place, it just works, the way you’d expect. Yet to achieve this the effort is immense. And because of such effort our stay was amazing, just easy, simple…. Thx to John and his amazing helpers. A great week with family & friends to bring in the new year in a beautiful location in 1st class style, Aberfeldy and the surrounding area is Scotland at its greatest. We highly recommend Dun Aluinn. Simply the best.
