Route Heart 200

May

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.

 

Guest Review

We have enjoyed our four days here, the house was spotlessly clean when we arrived. The house is nice and compact with a great view of the river and hills. Plenty of wildlife to watch. We had a nice walk up Glen Tilt and also sent to Killiecrankie, both we visited 49 years ago. A nice relaxing break. Ann, Oliver and Ailsa the westie.

Thank you very much for allowing us to stay at your lovely home. We had a great walk up Schiehallion and a restful time. House was very clean and well provisioned.

We really enjoyed our break at Gardeners cottage. It was so warm and cosy and just perfect for us. The wood burner was an added bonus as we don't have one at home! The cottage was in a great location for all walks and restaurants. Pitlochry is beautiful all year round but especially in Autumn. Kenny and Rita were lovely hosts and on hand for any queries but not at all intrusive. We would definitely return!
