Perthshire Cottages
Please find below a selection of self catering holiday cottages
to rent near Perthshire, Scotland.
Welcome to Perthshire, bang in the centre of Scotland and home
to some gorgeous Perthshire holiday cottages.
The contrasting landscapes of Perthshire create a playground for
all kinds of adventure, with traditional activities like cycling,
walking, fishing and golf being further enhanced by a wide variety
of more unusual pursuits, on land, on water and in the air.
Do something new! Don a wetsuit and try a spot of canyoning.
Take to the skies with a micro-light flight. Or enjoy close
encounters of the natural kind with an off-road safari.
Whether it's via some form of activity or touring the region
by car, discovering Perthshire promises a memorable experience.
Far-reaching forests sit alongside sweeping moorlands, a sanctuary
for flora and fauna - osprey, red deer, red squirrel, the
capercaillie. A gentle climate and fertile soils bring the
countryside ablaze with colour, with fields of soft berries and
gardens showcasing glorious floral displays. If your fingers have
the slightest tinge of green, Perthshire is a paradise!
The area also features a treasure trove of historic delights,
from grand ancestral homes and medieval castles, to Roman
encampments and intricate Pictish stones. Past visitors include
Queen Victoria, Bonnie Prince Charlie and Robert the Bruce.
The regional capital of Perth is worth a visit, especially if
your Perthshire cottage holiday happens to fall over the first
Saturday of the month when Perth's Farmers' Market presents
a dazzling display of local produce.
Add traditional crafts, from whisky to pottery, along with a
whole calendar of annual events and festivals, from music to
literary - the list goes on...
