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 a lovely 5 day stay at Northshore, great little house, well equipped, clean and bright with a super garden (enclosed) with direct access to the forest and loch. The town centre is a short walk from the house, we didn’t use the car once as everything we wanted was within walking distance. Thanks again

Hi Bea Just to thank you (and the owners) re our recent stay (9/8/22). My family and I had a lovely time and really enjoyed the comfort of the bungalow including the beautiful, secluded garden… so tranquil. It really did feel like home from home and the weather was amazing which was an added bonus! We look forward to visiting again. Many thanks for all your help. Claire & family

We hope the fact this was our fourth stay at the Cow Shed speaks for itself ? We simply love everything about it, not only the location and stunning views but also the homely welcome that always awaits due to the hosts thoughtful preparations. We hope to return! Best wishes, Victoria and David
