Easter 2005
We couldn’t find
the guest book so F......drew a picture and we all want to say what
a fabulous spot this is! The house is perfect and we are all looking
forward to two weeks in July.
The fresh flowers,
spices, tea and shortbread on arrival, warm duvets, and electric
blankets were very welcome; as was the log fire. You have a very
special home here and thank you for letting us stay.

The views, the
light and soft air are so lovely at Drumnkyle you could simply soak
in Scotland from this one idyllic spot.

Actually sitting
still in the conservatory for the first few days,(with an injury) I
was able to enjoy watching a wealth of wild life with my binoculars
-- 2 nests of Ospreys, a family of Buzzards, the occasional Red Deer,
Owls at night, and the wonderful array of small birds that come to
the bird table including Gt.Spotted Woodpeckers.

We have done the 'self-catering thing' all over Scotland from Shetland to Edinburgh and
Harris to St.Andrews and have found Drumnakyle one of our very best experiences.
The house is in a wonderful location and the immediate surrounding fields were delightful
in themselves.
These
were some the highlights of our holiday:
1. Two carriage -driving lessons at the
Mark Phillips Equestrian Centre at Gleneagles. Great
fun.
2. S. enjoyed a half day 'hawkin' experience
at Gleneagles.
3 . At Pitlochry Theatre we were amazed at
the quality of the music in 'Masters of the
House'.
5. A long 5 mile walk through the Blackwood
of Rannoch.
6. A short walk through the Hermitage.
7. A magnificent drive through Glen
Lyon.(next to Glencoe our favourite glen in all of Scotland) and back along the old forest
track to Glen Lochay and Killin.
8. The absolutely fantastic Game Conservancy
Fair at Scone Palace

I enjoyed the local flora and also
the richness of the birdlife......the family of Woodpeckers visited the nuts
regularly. Your Garden Warbler excelled itself and Redstsrt,Tree Pippit, and Wood
Warbler were enjoyable extras.
Things we really appreciated in the
house :- empty clean cupboards in the kitchen.(many s/c. houses have no space for
food!).
Good pots and pans of all sizes.
Cling film etc.etc.
Baking tins
Sharp Knives
Kitchen scales.
In fact there was nothing we looked for that you did not have!

Drumnakyle is not quite what I
expected; its better! It is less exposed than I thought it would be and in a more
attractive situation than most photographs of it would suggest.............and
besides that it is very well equipped.
We enjoyed the conservatory--particularly when it rained!

Drumnakyle was more of a home than a holiday cottage.
We had lots of fun with the Forsyth's canoe. It is an easy paddle to the Loch Tummel Inn
on the North shore for lunch. We look forward to our next visit.

Having mastered the art of fire-making and with the new double-glazing,
we were warm and cosy every evening.

The house is very suitable for three year olds, and it has lots of good hiding places for
"Hide and Seek".

Our first time at Drumnakyle but our 5th time in the area. Without doubt, this has been
the most comfortable and welcoming house we have stayed in!

Thanks once again to Allan and Birgitta for allowing us to share in their idyllic
retreat.

We both can think of no other place which gives so much beauty and peace.

This is a pretty cool place you have here.
There is so much to see and do. We have been walking, pony-trekking, canoeing and
cycling.
15 August 1997 J W
This house and the environs are perfect. There is everything you need for an excellent and
comfortable holiday.
All in all Drumnakyle feels like "home from home" with Dr and Mrs Forsyth making
their guests most Welcome.
