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

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

The Enchanted Forest has taken many accolades over its 20+ 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? 

Guest Reviews

We had another fantastic break at The Cow Shed. Steve and Kirsty were perfect hosts and the cottage was just how we remembered it, with everything we needed for a short break. Definitely no complaints and looking to book our next visit.
