Heritage:
The Atholl Palace Hotel, a short walk away, is set on magnificent grounds and has a small but fascinating museum; Blair Castle provides an excellent day out.-the ancient seat of the Dukes and Earls of Atholl houses a great display of arms and armour, as well as extensive collections of porcelain, paintings and period furniture.

Nearby Loch Faskally and Killiecrankie offer a wide variety of outdoor activities including walking, sailing, fishing, canoeing and a number of adventure sports.

Salmon Ladder: Pitlochry is famous for its hydroelectric dam and salmon ladder. The ladder was specially constructed to enable salmon to by-pass the dam and make their way upstream to Loch Faskally above. Approximately half a million visitors go to the dam and fish ladder every year, making it one of the top attractions in Scotland. The ladder is 310 metres long and consists of 34 chambers. It enables around 5,000 salmon to return to their spawning grounds each year - a journey of some 6,000 miles!

Whisky Galore: Enjoy a complimentary 'wee dram' when you book a tour with Edradour, a short walk from the house. Edradour is the smallest distillery in Scotland and is the last original 'farm' distillery in Perthshire.
