The Central Scotland/Edinburgh region

At the heart of the Central/Edinburgh is Scotland's beautfiul and inspiring capital , Edinburgh. The " Fair City of Perth " is situated some 16 miles South of Blairgowrie, on the A93. This popular route leads to the glories of Royal Deeside and Balmoral [ 33 miles ] . Many periods of Scottish history are represented in the locality, from the Romans, and Picts to the Crowning of Scottish Kings, at Scone Palace, within 15 minutes drive. The rolling arable countryside around Blairgowrie has allowed the cultivation of superb soft fruits and the development of farm shops, selling a range of local produce.
Blairgowrie is also at the foothills of the heather clad Grampian mountains and the ski resort of Glenshee is readily accessible from the apartment.
