This famous lightshow, listed in the Lonely Planet's compilation of unmissable experiences, attracts over 80,000 visitors over it's 5 week run each year.

It takes place in October and November in Pitlochry's Faskally Woods and around Dunmore Loch, a former curling pond.

The Enchanted Forest has taken many accolades over its 25+ year history, including Best Cultural Event and Best Outdoor Festival. It is a breathtakingly magical and spectacular nighttime event.

This award-winning sound and light experience makes Autumn the ideal time to visit.

Pepper your short break or long vacation with daytime walks through autumn amber-red woods and mist shroudded mountains and come home from home to a hot whisky and a warm stove to curl up next to, after a day and night in the Autumn air.

What a beautiful cottage. Everything was as described. About a 12 minute walk into the centre of Pitlochry which was absolutely fine, uphill on the way back though! Would definitely recommend and would stay here again if available when needed. Thanks for letting us stay.

Second time we have stayed here. Lovely location and the bungalow is very clean and modern with everything you need. Highlights - Shopping and eating out in pitlochry and other nearby towns; visiting Balmoral and Ballater and Atholl Castle.
