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

Re our recent stay at The Cow Shed our feedback for future guests is wholly positive - the property was clean and super cosy, the owners helpful and friendly but not intrusive. So lovely to have an unlimited supply of logs for the wood burner. Plenty of useful information about the area and further afield available in the cottage. Highly recommend and thank you for a lovely stay.

“Lovely cottage in a great area in Pitlochry. We loved it. Spotlessly clean too.”

Perfect break away. It really is home from home. Peaceful surroundings, beautiful scenery. Visits to Blair Castle and Crannog centre were excellent. Keep doing what you do . Thank you
