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 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.

Thank you for a wonderful stay in a great location. Well stocked kitchen and characterful main room with a fantastic wood stove.

Another most enjoyable stay at one of our favourite places to take a holiday. The Cow Shed was, once again, perfect for our needs. We love the quiet peaceful environment & the amazing views along the valley. A great base to explore Perthshire from. We enjoyed ascending Cairngorm on the mountain funicular railway (near Aviemore) for the spectacular views, followed by a journey on Strathspey Heritage railway from Aviemore to Broomhill.
