Crieff lies on the Southern edge of the Scottish Highlands and is the second largest town to Perth in Perthsire. Access is good to surrounding attractions; from the nearby Crieff Visitor Centre to the Wallace Monument and Stirling Castle slightly further afield. We took one of the guided tours and our guide really brought the castle and its long history to life.
From here, it's not too far to Pitlochry with its Salmon fish ladder or Scone Palace where Macbeth, Robert the Bruce and Charles II were crowned. A lot of events are held in the grounds throughout the year, including falconry displays and the opportunity to meet characters from history. Check out the Scone Palace website for details.
