This famous lightshow in the woods, listed in the Lonely Planet's compilation of unmissable experiences attracts 80,000 visitors over it's 5 week run each year. It takes place each Autumn in Pitlochry's Faskally Woods around Dunmore Loch, a former curling pond.

This is an ideal time to stay in Perthshire, with endless walks through autumn woods and misty mountains. 

Why not stay in a holiday home with a warm stove to curl up next to after a day in the Autumn air?

Guest Reviews

We had another fantastic break at The Cow Shed. Steve and Kirsty were perfect hosts and the cottage was just how we remembered it, with everything we needed for a short break. Definitely no complaints and looking to book our next visit.

This was a new destination for us, and what a find! We absolutely loved our stay and were really able to do some much-needed relaxing. The property is very well furnished, and the views are amazing - especially as the sun sets in the evening. Steve and Kirstie were fantastic hosts, re-assuringly available to answer any questions but not in any way intrusive. There are lots of beautiful walks both within easy driving distance and literally from the front door - ranging from quick evening strolls to big climbs and all really well detailed in the information pack. Would definitely recommend this property and definitely hope to return soon!
