Our stay with Pauline and Lindsay is a most memorable highlight on our trip through Scotland. Very close to Blair Castle and of course the Blair Athol and Pitlochry areas. Makes for a great location for easy day-trips exploring the area. Room was comfy and cozy. Food was EXCELLENT! Breakfast was hearty and a great way to start the day in their sunny and cheery dining area. This place felt like home the moment we walked through the door. Our hosts were a delight and always prepared with great advice or a story to share. We LOVED our time here. Highly recommend. Trust their tips on dining and places to visit.
