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.

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?

Wonderful stay at schiehallion cottage last week. Brilliant big garden for the dogs so peaceful and quiet. Will definitely be back.

The property was so peaceful and relaxing. Our stay was 5 minutes from Blair horse trails which was our main reason for going to the area but once there we found so much more to do, cycling, local amenities and very friendly people in the area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here in beautiful Pitlochry! The home is right in town so you can just walk out the door to shops and eateries. Also walkable to a grocery store. The space is very comfortable and clean. Thanks for a great stay! P.S. we loved that the building used to be a bank and they kept the vault door into the (now) utility room.
