At this working farm in the heart of Highland Perthshire, you can immerse yourself in the rhythms of rural life. Their cookery school offers hands-on experiences from foraging to fermentation, all set in a charming farmhouse kitchen. After cooking up a storm, visit their farm shop in Aberfeldy to pick up fresh produce, artisanal goods, and seasonal treats, bringing a taste of the Highlands home with you. And when it’s time to unwind, you can stay overnight in the smartly renovated Farmhouse, which sleeps up to 14 guests, or The Steading and nearby East End Cottage for a more intimate escape.

Amble from Pitlochry to the idyllic Loch Faskally. Grab the kayak, your dryrobe,  your hiking boots and a good, old-fashioned picnic for the perfect day-out. 

This sprawling 145,000-acre playground in Highland Perthshire skirts the Cairngorms National Park. Curl up in a charming Highland lodge or a cosy shepherd’s hut, and wake up to misty hills, deer grazing nearby, and the gentle sound of the River Tilt. By day, explore over 50 miles of waymarked trails, try your hand at fly-fishing, or join a ranger-led foraging walk. When hunger strikes, head to the Tullibardine Restaurant at Blair Castle for seasonal, locally sourced dishes with a view of the private gardens. 

Wander away those city worries in the nine-acre walled garden and wild forests of Blair Castle. The perfect spot to romanticise those countryside ambles, and pop in to the castle for a dose of history.
