The new driving route around the Heart of Scotland - 200 miles of roads with history, myth and adventure through majestic landscape.
The Heart200 route is from Stirling in the South to Blair Atholl in the North. About 60% of the route is in Perthshire so all our holiday cottages are perfect for starting to enjoy small bites of the route.
Highpoints of the route include Loch Leven Castle where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned on an island, Scone Palace where Scottish kings were crowned, Dunkeld where Macbeth's Birnam Oak still stands and the ancient Yew at Fortingall, near Aberfeldy, Europe's oldest tree
The whole route would take more than a week to enjoy. Full route guide and merchandise will be available this Summer.
We stayed in Sinclair lodge in late July 2021 for a wedding at Blair Castle during a long weekend. The lodge is spacious, well-equipped and furnished, scrupulously clean and easily accommodates six adults. The village of Blair Atholl and castle are within walking distance and Pitlochry only a 15 minutes drive via Killiecrankie, with its visitor attractions. The readily available Pitlochry guide features local amenities and places to visit. D Dodman

We had a great stay at Kasinga. The house had a lovely homely feel to it. It was clean and very well kitted out with everything a family would need. My wee 7yr old boy especially loved all the outside equipment and games. We taught him how to play badminton that week. We hope to book again in the future.

Wonderful cottage. Location is quite and the back yard is a wonderful space. The cottage was cool during the heatwave. Easy to walk or get the bus into Pitlochry. Inn next door has good pub food. Parking was always available. We enjoyed our stay and would go back.
