This famous lightshow, 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 October in Pitlochry's Faskally Woods around Dunmore Loch, a former curling pond.

The Enchanted Forest has taken many accolades over its 20+ year history, including Best Cultural Event and Best Outdoor Festival. It is a breathtakingly magical and spectacular nighttime event.

This award-winning sound and light experience makes Autumn the ideal time to visit.

Pepper your short break or long vacation with daytime walks through autumn amber-red woods and mist shroudded mountains and come home from home to a hot whisky and a warm stove to curl up next to, after a day and night in the Autumn air? 

Guest Reviews

We thought Faskally Cottage was superb and suited our requirements perfectly. The location was great, the standard of the accommodation excellent and very clean. We would definitely stay again if we were visiting the area.

We had an absolutely amazing time in Perthshire. The accommodation was superb and every need had been thought of and provided. Steve and Kirsty were brilliant hosts even to point of driving us down to the local restaurant for our 1st anniversary dinner. To be perfectly honest I can not think of how our stay at the Cow Shed 2 could have been improved. We certainly hope to return in the future.

We loved the garden and sun room, perfect for relaxing in. Location ideal too with a 10mins walk into Pitlochry. We went to Heartland Festival on Saturday, great day.
