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

The cottage was perfect well equipped and spotlessly clean. It was so peaceful but yet only a very short walk into Pitlochry or in the other direction to the enchanted forest. The owners Rita and Kenny were very friendly and extremely helpful the fresh flowers ,wine and shortbread were a welcome touch. It was just perfect for me, my husband and Dexter the dog and we would definitely return and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the cottage to anyone.

Nice house, in a fantastic location for taking advantage of all that Moulin, Pitlochry, and the surrounding area has to offer

Hi Bea, we had a wonderful 2 weeks at Roneval again this year. Already booked for 2024. Such a warm & comfortable house & Beautiful gardens, plenty of parking. Enjoyed watching the Red Squirrel coming and burying his nuts in the garden. 2 Pheasants visited as well & a ginger cat. Lovely walks from the door upwards or level. Good food at the Golf Club, Escape Route café (both very dog friendly) The Boathouse (dogs outside only) but lovely view down the Loch. Nice walks from the main car park in Dunkeld and good food at The Athol Arms Hotel (also dog friendly). Lovely walk to Loch Dunmore (Charged parking now) and also around Loch Faskally to the Salmon Ladder & The Festival Theatre.
