This famous lightshow in the woods, listed in the Lonely Planet's compilation of unmissable experiences Ultimate United Kingdom Travelist, 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?
A lovely cosy cottage with a perfect setting. We really enjoyed walking 10 mins into Dunkeld for dinner at The Atholl Arms and discovering all the local walks, like the Hermitage and the banks of the Tay to Birnam Oak. We saw ospreys at Loch of the Lowes and visited the Crannog centre. Loved coming back to the cottage and relaxing in front of the wood burner! Great wee escape!
Hollyhock Cottage
"A great cottage for us as keen cyclists & walkers with plenty of space for our group of 4 adults. The garage was perfect for bike storage, overall this cottage had absolutely everything we could need for our stay. We'd love to stay again. Thank you." Laura & Ben
Schiehallion Cottage
Clara was a fantastic host and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The accommodation was much bigger than we expected, the photos don’t do it justice! It is large, airy and very modern. Amazing kitchen and huge bed. There were lots of thoughtful touches throughout which we appreciated. It is set in a great spot to explore - close enough to amenities but far enough out that you feel secluded. Would recommend to anyone!
