Luxury holidays in Perthshire

When to go

There’s something to do all year round, but in the autumn the woodland becomes spectacular as the leaves change. Winter is for the skiers and snowboarders especially, whereas spring and summer are for admiring the wildlife.

Getting there

• Planes

  Dundee airport is half an hour’s drive east of Perth and flies to domestic locations including London, Birmingham, Belfast and Jersey (www.hial.co.uk/dundee-airport).

• Trains

  Perthshire has seven train stations with connections to Glasgow and Edinburgh, as well as direct trains to London (www.scotrail.co.uk).

• Automobiles

  The M90 connects Perth to southerly regions. A roads also link Perth to locations such as Gleneagles, Crieff and Dunkeld. It's worth having a car so you can explore; drivers are spoiled when it comes to scenery.
