Activity Breaks & Holidays in Pitlochry

The physical situation and instinctive style of the hotel in Pitlochry makes it attractive to couples or small groups who wish to take a restful and relaxing short break of, say, three or four nights. They spend the days taking advantage of the many delightful walks through the rich woods, along the streams and lochs or out onto the open hills and mountains.

Others prefer to drive along the quiet roads through the glens of Perthshire and the near Highlands.

In the late autumn and winter months, as the days grow shorter and the attractions of warmth and indoor pursuits beckon, the hotel offers:-

Bridge Meetings organised and supervised by tutors of international experience. There are meetings for players of competitive standard and meetings for those who are in the earliest stages of learning the game.

   Painting courses where aspiring artists and 'dabblers' can receive tuition and close supervision in watercolours.

Curling weekends during which the facilities of the local curling rink are made available to clubs or groups of people who are drawn to "the roaring game".

Crossword Weekends where you will learn to recognise the various types of clues and how they lead to those elusive answers. This weekend course will help you get the most out of this popular past time.

Scrabble breaks, run by well known Scottish Internationalists, are both social and competitive. Morning tutorial sessions are followed by an opportunity to try out newly acquired skills, in competitive play in the evenings.

Details about all of our activity breaks are readily available - either ask for them during you stay, or just telephone the hotel and ask us to forward a programme for whatever activity you are interested in.
