Perthshire, Scotland
View Map

While Perthshire is has many small towns that are well known tourist destinations there are many more less known villages with wonderful stories and landscapes, ideal for the visitor looking for the less beaten track. 

Stanley was built in the 1780's to house the workers at Stanley Mills, now a museum to the industrial revolution. 

Places to eat 

In the heart of stanley itself is modern restaurant Blasta, restaurant owner and head chef David Barnett has a wealth of experience and before opening his own restaurant and take away in Stanley, he was once the executive chef of Fonab Castle Hotel. 

A short distance away from stanley is Usiage bar and restaurant, with a cosy, relaxed atmosphere and offering both indoor and outdoor seating for dining or cocktails.  

Don't Miss; Fortingall

Fortingall is home to the Fortingall Yew, thoe oldest tree in Europe, and a tragic story of a villagle that died to save others fromthe Plague. It is also home the the annual Fortingall Art Exhibition which we highly recommend if you are visiting at the end of July.

Guest Reviews

We returned from our stay at Lettoch having had another wonderful stay. Everything about our visit was first rate, from the pre-holiday information to the warm welcome from Steve and Kirstie to the extensive cleaning carried out prior to our arrival. Everything had been well thought through and there was nothing we found that could be improved. Anyone that has booked should have absolutely no concerns at all about their visit or the welcome they will receive from the local community. We have already booked for another return visit!

Perfect cottage with fabulous views. Steve and Kirsty are great hosts and we hope to return in the spring. A beautiful place to sit quietly and enjoy the birds and red Squirrels, we really enjoyed watching the family of barn owls each evening.

The cottage is very comfortable and well appointed. We felt at home right away. It was just right for us and our dogs who loved the garden. Fridge and laundry facilities in the garage were great.
