Scenic & serene
Three miles from the inn is the historic Queen's View, one of Scotland's most famous viewing spots, offering glorious views down Loch Tummel to Schiehallion 'the fairy mountain', with the mountains of Glen Coe on Scotland's west coast in the distance.
Rooms
From the cosy snug furnished with comfy sofas and warmed by a log fire, a small staircase leads to six rustic-chic bedrooms furnished in exquisite good taste and all recently refurbished.
Here, you'll find rugs on polished wood floors, big comfortable beds toped with the best linen and down and thick throws, comfortable chairs by the window to soak up the view, Nespresso coffee machines, period features, modern local artwork, and homemade shortbread and complimentary whisky on arrival.
Equally impressive refurbished bathrooms feature tubs and walk-in power showers, fluffy towels and bathrobes, and soaps from the local Scottish Fine Soaps company. A good night's sleep is guaranteed - wake up to those stunning views and a hearty breakfast - Gloagburn porridge with honey and compote; smoked salmon and scrambled eggs or the full Scottish will set you for a memorable day exploring the magnificent local landscape.
Restaurant & bar
Against a backdrop of magnificent views of the loch, enticing lunch and dinner menus are built around local lines of supply, with quality meat from Mcdonald Butchers in Pitlochry, game from local estates, and fish and seafood from George Campbell in Perth.
Expect good country cooking with a typical set dinner menu offering quail's egg and haggis Scotch egg, followed by rack of Perthshire lamb, salsa verde and crushed new potatoes with anchovy butter. Leave room for the seasonal crumble with vanilla custard or a plate of Scottish artisan cheeses.
All the jams, marmalades, chutneys, bread, oatcakes and afternoon treats are made fresh in the kitchen. Interesting vegan dishes and delicious Sunday roasts complete the foodie picture. The drinks menu takes in local ales from Strathraan brewery in Amulree, a good choice of malt whiskies, and a short, well-chosen list of wines (10 by the glass).
