The greeting on arrival from the owners was warm and welcoming. We were then shown our room and all amenities to which we would need throughout our two night stay. Absolutely beautiful accommodation and very 'grand' - lovingly restored by Kerry and William (the owners) to a magnificent property in the most picturesque location. The property has a peaceful, relaxed and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel very special and welcome and to be honest, it was difficult to leave and go 'sightseeing'! So easy to stay and enjoy the view. Our room was so comfortable - every need thoughtfully provided. The bed extremely comfortable and again easy to have a sleepin! Breakfast was also included, and it too lived up to all expectations. Perfect location and highly recommend to everyone.

Arrandale House is a beautiful Victorian villa within in the charming town of Pitlochry in the heart of Highland Perthshire. Built circa 1868 the house retains many period features reflecting the original detail and fine craftsmanship of the era. Situated in a unique elevated position the house has wonderful uninterrupted views over the Tummel Valley and surrounding hills. Our tranquil garden attracts many species of birds and wildlife including Red Squirrel, Woodpecker and Pheasant, you may even see Roe Deer resting at the bottom of the garden. The Black Spout Wood which leads to many of the Pitlochry way-marked walking trails is on our doorstep. The spectacular Black Spout Waterfall is a popular destination for visitors and keen photographers. We have five luxurious en-suite bedrooms, all of which have beautiful scenic views of the surrounding hills and woodland. Each room has been lovingly decorated to create a relaxing, homely environment where guests can sit comfortably at the windows looking out over the garden and beyond whilst relaxing with a cup of tea or coffee.
The centre of Pitlochry is a leisurely ten minute walk from the house where you will find an array of restaurants, coffee shops, gift shops and live music venues for you to enjoy. The Pitlochry Festival Theatre provides exceptional entertainment throughout the year and is situated next to the famous Dam and Fish Ladder. Edradour and Blair Athol Distilleries and the Pitlochry Golf Course are also within walking distance of the house. Pitlochry Railway Station is situated in the heart of the town with Loch Faskally and Faskally Woods further beyond at towards the west side. There are numerous scenic places of interest within a short drive of Pitlochry such as The Queen's View & Loch Tummel, The Pass of Killiecrankie & Visitor Centre (the site of a Jacobite battle) and the picturesque Blair Castle & Gardens, situated the beginning of The Cairngorms National Park in Highland Perthshire. The House of Bruar (a unique shopping experience) and the Falls of Bruar are only a 20 minutes drive on the nearby A9. You can travel to Perth by car within 30 minutes and the journey to both Edinburgh & Glasgow are around 90 minutes, dependant on traffic.
