Cluny House is Category B listed building in Aberfeldy, Perth and Kinross, Scotland.[1] It dates to around 1825. Its tower was added about fifty years later.[2]

In the mid-19th century, it was the home of Thomas Cockburn-Hood (1820–1889).[3] [4]

The house's gardens were started in the 1950s by Bobby and Betty Masterton.[5] The former also planted the tree trail at the Birks of Aberfeldy.[6]
