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?

Guest Reviews

We had a wonderful three-night stay at the Bothy over the New Year period. The location is utterly stunning, with wide-ranging views across the valley, and it’s perfectly placed for exploring the Cairngorms and their beautiful landscapes. The home itself is thoughtfully decorated — we felt very at home from the moment we arrived. We experienced a minor weather-related issue due to the sub-zero temperatures, but Bea and Stuart were extremely helpful and responsive, with great communication throughout. A truly beautiful home in a beautiful part of the country. We would thoroughly recommend staying here.

We contacted Bea at Home from Home Perthshire to book our third family visit (6 adults) for our annual golfing holiday at Ruggles Cottage on the Dunira Estate Comrie. The Cottage is superbly furnished - the kitchen is wonderfully equipped. There are two summer houses in the garden, barbecue area and a babbling brook running by. The wildlife is plentiful - deer, red squirrels and red kites. Parking facilities are available. It is close to Crieff and Loch Earn together with Comrie and St Fillans Golf clubs. We can strongly recommend Ruggles Cottage. From the Denton Family
