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.
Perfect base to explore the area. Well kitted out kitchen. Lovely fireplace and lounge area after our long days out exploring!

“Weavers Cottage was clean and spacious and in a fantastic location for exploring Aberfeldy / Kenmore / Glen Lyon. Great walks nearby with plenty of wildlife. Activities for the family not too far away with Scottish Quads and Splash rafting recommended.”
We had a wonderful stay here. 5 of us had tons of room and space to do things together or get time alone. The place was clearly remodeled lately and an exceptional job was done. It's a fantastic location too - two places to eat across the way, an art gallery between them, the candy store around the corner (we had teens with us) and the various places we walked to for eating were great. Will absolutely recommend to anyone headed to the area. Thank you!
