Sometimes when you are on holiday you stumble on something exceptional, ad truly memorable. Jo and Terry at Fairburns B&B offer a wonderful experience. The whole package is one delight after another. The accomodation is outstanding - gorgeous decor, bedding, bathroom and lounge areas with great books and magazines. The food for breakfast was homemade, with eggs from the chooks and relishes made by Jo - Yum.
However the best thing about this place is the warm welcome from Jo and Terry. They made us feel like friends, not paying guests. Jo even offered to take us (and pick us up at the end of the evening) to our restaurant booking at The Royal Mail at Dunkeld. Initially we were reluctant to accept as it was a 50 minute round trip, but we did, and it meant that we could both enjoy wine with the exceptional meal we had there.
In the morning we toured the garden and farm with Jo and Terry and I came away with bags full of cuttings from the gorgeous array of plants that Jo has nurtured and loved, and so generously shared. I'm planning on a return visit for at least 3 nights with friends to see more of the area and enjoy more of that really wonderful country hospitality.
Thanks Jo and Terry. Hope you are really successful with this venture - but not so successful that we can't get a booking:)
