SERVICE OVERVIEW
We guide Blairgowrie landlords through every step. After a property visit we prepare the home, photograph it and write a listing that speaks to outdoor guests, then run pricing, enquiries, guest communication and changeovers. You get monthly reporting, so there is no guesswork about how the property is doing.
WHAT IS MANAGED
Our service covers professional photography, listing text, calendar syncing, rate management, guest messaging, arrival instructions, welcome guides including local walks and places to eat, laundry, cleaning, restocking, safety checks and arranging repairs. We can also advise on practical extras such as boot storage, drying space and secure bike storage, which suit outdoor guests.
WHY CHOOSE US
Blairgowrie guests often stay several nights and expect a home that works for muddy boots, groups and early starts. Orion tailors the setup and wording to that expectation, and prices around the town's seasons instead of leaving a flat rate in place. Our work across Perth and Tayside lets us compare Blairgowrie with the towns around it when setting rates.
LOCATION DEMAND
Blairgowrie is a gateway to Glenshee and the southern Cairngorms, drawing walkers and cyclists in summer and skiers in winter. The town's golf courses and the River Ericht add to the leisure offer, while the surrounding glens attract anglers and wildlife watchers. The area has long been known for soft fruit, so seasonal workers also form part of the local demand picture.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What does Orion charge?
Our current terms are a setup fee from £500 + VAT, depending on property size, then 15% + VAT commission on bookings. We confirm the figures after visiting your property.
Do you manage rural or detached properties?
Yes. We manage town flats, cottages and larger detached homes, and plan the cleaning and access arrangements to suit the location.
Do winter bookings matter here?
Yes. Snow and ski trips toward Glenshee can create short, intense periods of demand, and we adjust pricing and minimum stays to match.
Do I need a licence for a Blairgowrie rental?
Yes, from Perth and Kinross Council. We guide you through the application and the fire and electrical safety requirements.
Is Blairgowrie suited to short lets?
Yes, particularly for outdoor and leisure guests. Properties that welcome groups, pets or active guests tend to do especially well.
