The Central Scotland/Edinburgh region
Perthshire is a gem among Scotland's counties and perfectly situated in Scotland for a self-catering holiday. Visiting historic castles, museums, gardens, superb golf, walking and beaches; with such diversity of scenery, activities and things to do and see, visitors cannot fail to find entertainment and interest to suit.
Edinburgh has been a capital of Scotland since 1437 and once it has been the centre of the Enlightenment led by the University of Edinburgh which made it know as the Athens of the North. This beautiful and remarkable city has thousands of its buildings listed on the World Heritage site and you can visit them once in Edinburgh on the annual Edinburgh Festival.
This collection of many independent shows and spectacles is well know all around the world and is held from the beginning of August for at least four weeks.
Edinburgh has not only rich history and architecture but also culture and the locals will happily share the stories and tales over the pint in their favourite local pub.
Perthshire / Glenfarg area
Visit the magnificent highland Perthshire Blair Castle, home to the Dukes of Atholl, not to mention the nearby centre of excellence for Scottish produce at House of Bruar. Walk at Bruar Falls, visit the nearby highland town of Pitlochry with its famous fish ladder and Festival Theatre and shops selling quality Scottish tartans and crafts. Wonder at the underwater archaeology (still on-going) that’s produced the replica stone-age settlement and visitor centre, The Crannog with nearby Kenmore and Aberfeldy.
Travel by the Sma’ Glen to Crieff, a typical highland town with the nearby distillery the Famous Grouse Experience. The glorious gardens in this area are known worldwide by planstmen - at their best in May or June, but well worth a visit at any time of year, such as Branklyn, Kellie and Drummond Castles.
Scone Palace is close to Perth and the fairy-tale Glamis Castle, birthplace of the Queen Mother, is in Angus. Falkland Palace, Kellie Castle and others await your visit. If family history is your passion, there’s ample opportunity to research your roots via the Tay Valley Family History Society and other centres.
