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?

We really enjoyed our stay. The Cow Shed was fab. We also had a tour of Cow Shed 2 which looked equally lovely. No issues at all and nothing really to improve. We will definitely be back. Just wish there were more high quality places like it for couples in Scotland!

Hi Bea & the team. As you know we stayed in Cowshed in August and we're coming back in October. I've been fortunate enough to visit and stay.in some wonderful places in the world. But I genuinely love going back to Lettoch, The Cowshed being our favourite.. It's just beautiful it has everything you need. It's perfect without being "Perfect" meaning sometimes you can go to some places and it's to perfect that you don't feel like you can relax, everything looks to precious. The Cowshed is like a big warm hug, you walk in and you don't want to walk out. Steve is such a genuine guy, making sure everything is okay but giving you your privacy... Perfect. I can't imagine not going back. Regards, Margaret ?
