Argaty Red Kites

Argaty Red Kites is a bird watching centre that gives you a unique chance to get close to these exciting birds and learn more about them.

The aim of the project is to increase the number of Red Kites in the wild, so feeding is minimal but there is always a good view of them whether they are perching, flying or feeding.

It is very rare for visitors not to see any birds, although you normally see larger numbers of them during the winter. Visitors have the chance to observe the birds feeding from the hide.

Situated just a mile outside the picturesque village of Comrie, Cultybraggan Camp is the only WW2 Prisoner of War camp open to the public in Scotland.

Good afternoon Bea, Just to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay last week at Vrackie View. After all the delays due to covid we really appreciated the peace and quiet and lovely weather too! The addition of WiFi and new double glazing has certainly made the property more comfortable. It certainly is a home from home, so we'll equipped, clean and spacious. We will be coming back again!
