Pitlochry has shops and restaurants to meet all tastes, from supermarket for self-catering to stocking up on hand crafted winter woollies and from traditional highland fayre to hiring a bike. Golfers can enjoy the local 18-hole golf course (par 69).
There are excellent walks to suit a variety of abilities, either hillside or along a fascinating stretch of the River Tummel. Visit the salmon ladder, hydraulic dam and the Recreation Ground where weekly summer cultural events are held including pipe bands and Highland and Scottish dancing.
The Festival Theatre boasts a busy summer season of 6 plays performed in repertoire arranged in such a way that any or all can be attended within the same week.
The winter season at the theatre includes the Winter Words literary festival and visiting Ballet, Opera and Orchestra.
There are also award winning workshops (visual, Performance and Creative Arts) and many foyer events, Sunday concerts, a cafe, restaurant and art gallery.
There are also plenty of activities geared specifically towards children including a large play ground and putting green. There is a swing park within 5 minutes walk of the cottage.
A well furnished & quiet cosy cottage with information for everyones interests. Despite hurricane katie being forecast. Pitlochry only had very heavy rain & wind. Nice and quiet here. Red squirrels came for their hazelnuts everyday and came and took them from your carpet floor at patio door. Golden Eagle seen at Rannoch Station. Enjoyed the peace & friendly welcome, will recommend to friends. Thank you
C & A SmithThank you so much Gill for your kindness & Janice for maintaining a beautiful, homely cottage. So much to see & do in such a short space of time. We have loved the much needed rest. So peaceful and comfortable. We would definitely recommend Scone Palace, but we were highly disappointed with Crieff. ' The plaice to be' is great for fish and chips. Thank you thank you thank you.
