On the leafy edge of Pitlochry, with views to the Perthshire hills, Struan and Louise Lothian’s hotel has the feel of a Victorian country house in town.

Spectacular views across Loch Tummel to the iconic peak of Schiehallion can be seen from this ‘characterful and quirky old coaching inn’ ten miles from Pitlochry in Perthshire’s big-tree country.

Pheasants wander the enclosed gardens and woodland of this stone-built Victorian house, within easy walking distance of the town.

A private drive winds through wooded grounds to this stately Victorian mansion which feels deep in the country, yet Pitlochry town centre is only a 10-minute walk.

A thoughtful take on modern hospitality, the McLaren-Stewart family’s vegan hotel and restaurant bring together a deeply considered environmental ethos with contemporary style.
