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?
This was a fantastic place , Auld Smiddy Cottage! The five of us all give it very high marks. The location was super, walking distance to Pitlochry. However, quieter than being closer to town. All the rooms are very well appointed. We did not lack for anything, in the public rooms as well as the bedrooms. Had we stayed longer we would have taken advantage of the lovely back garden area. All in all I highly recommend this wonderful cottage.

“This was a great break for 2 adults & 2 grown up children in a relaxing, warm & extremely comfortable cottage. Tasteful decor, spacious, wonderfully clean, & beautiful surrounding area. Garden by the river was gorgeous! A much needed escape. Thank you so much!”
