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?

Dear Bea, Well yet again we had a lovely two weeks in North Shore the sun shone The whole two weeks we were there as it did last year. The cottage was very comfortable and it was so good looking out on to the forest and Loch. We just love it here every thing is just on your door step. We certainly will be back next year. Kind Regards June.

A wonderful week spent at The Stables! The accommodation was everything we had hoped for and more! Spacious, spotless and well furnished with everything we required. Beautiful fresh flowers were a lovely touch! The location was perfect for us - peaceful and quiet, with lots of wildlife to see, and with nearby walks and wild swimming spots within easy reach by car. Pitlochry and Blair Atholl within 5 mile radius for supplies and nearby attractions. Close enough to the A9 (new) to travel further afield if we wanted and to the old A9 for shorter, more picturesque routes, but not so close that they caused any disruption to our stay. Lovely property and hosts, peaceful, and stunning views and countryside on the doorstep.

We had a great stay. The house is perfectly placed with a good pub next door and easy access to walks in the mountains or into the town. Overall, highly recommended and we will definitely want to come back again.
