Little Briar is a charming pet friendly, two bedroom stone cottage that faces south offering breathtaking and romantic views over Loch Earn to Glenample and Stuc A Chroin from its elevated position. Little Briar is surrounded by a wooden deck within landscaped gardens featuring ornamental furniture and barbecue facilities. There are two fence panels that can be attached to secure dogs immediately outside the cottage door.
Pets adore the run around space in the sloping paddock to the rear of Little Briar. The grounds lead up to the old disbanded railway path and you can climb through the wire fence on to it. There is a stream that runs from the top of the garden. Dogs love to splash in the flat pool area that Fraser has landscaped. Sit at the picnic table in the top corner of the garden. The last place that the sun hits before it disappears. Don't forget to take your camera!
We usually don't see snow at ground level for long though the hills and Munro tops can be covered until Spring. When the snow comes the scene is majestic. It is fun to sledge down this hill and you can follow the deer hoof marks all the way from the top of the paddock down to the loch garden as per this You Tube video.

 Guest Jax about to swim and fetch in Loch Earn
A short driveway leads to the cottage from the main gates (near the double garage) with parking for 2 cars. Guests can fish from the garden (March 15th to October 6th) without a permit.
Visit our summer house, use the garden furniture and the petanque court (bocce ball) and play 4 flag lawn putting in our 250ft private garden area on the banks of Loch Earn where we have a jetty, slipway and mooring buoys. Some owners let their dogs swim and fetch balls in the loch. Some guests love to swim in summer. You are welcome, however , stay near the shore as the loch is cold and deep - unless you are a hardy open water swimmer or training for Iron Man like some of our guests. 
Loch View, Little Briar Lounge
