Lodges in Pitlochry 

Spread over an area in the middle of Highland Perthshire and just south of the Cairngorms National Park, our lodges in Pitlochry are superb spaces to base yourself on a holiday to Scotland. As well as being a gateway for adventures – think everything from hill walking to whitewater rafting – the Victorian-era town isn't short on amenities, with distilleries, pubs and tearooms serving up local treats. The scenery is also spectacular: you’ll be surrounded by lush woodlands, green hills and glittering lochs here. 

Choose from lodges in Pitlochry with mountain views or select a spot right by the River Tay for wild swimming. You can also pick out your accommodation based on facilities. Perhaps a self-catering shepherd’s hut with a kitchenette? Or a cabin with wifi so you can easily plan your itinerary? 

Either way, our suggestions on where to stay and what to do once you’ve arrived will get your break off to a flying start. 

Where you should stay in Pitlochry 

  • Pitlochry developed as a tourist destination ​​after a visit from Queen Victoria in 1842, when she bought the Balmoral estate. Stay at a lodge near the centre to soak up the grandeur of the town. This way you’ll also be in close proximity to key attractions like the 310-metre salmon ladder, which 5,000 fish swim through on a yearly basis. 

  • Whether you’re more interested in leisurely pursuits such as golf and cycling or are keen to try high-octane activities like bungee jumping and quad biking, you’ll want a comfy lodge in Pitlochry to return to after your adventures. Look out for a space with a living area and heating to unwind on your sofa in the warmth. 

  • If you're planning to hike, perhaps up to the 841-metre summit of Ben Vrackie, opt for a lodge in Pitlochry with a private shower for freshening up. From the top of the mountain, the views of the distant Beinn a Ghlo range are just stunning. 

  • Avid angler? Line up a session on the banks of Loch Tummel and attempt to reel in brown trout, perch and pike. Alternatively, go for a glamping site with a stream, lake or river for fishing close to home. 

  • If you’re bringing the kids to a Pitlochry lodge, it’s worth finding a family-friendly option with a play area. For memorable days out, take the whole gang to an outdoor activity centre in nearby Aberfeldy for canyoning, paintballing or abseiling. 

What you can do in Pitlochry

  • The town’s Blair Athol Distillery, set in the foothills of the Grampian Mountains, is one of the oldest remaining whisky makers in Scotland. We recommend booking an informative tour of the centre, then buying a bottle to bring back to your lodge in Pitlochry for nightcaps during your holiday. 

  • Road tripping around Perthshire? Schedule a stop at ​​Queen's View, where you can park at the visitor centre to see a perfectly framed panorama of glittering Loch Tummel, then get lost in the area’s ancient forests. 

  • Speaking of tree-lined destinations, Faskally Wood inside Tay Forest Park is well worth a wander from your lodge in Pitlochry. Follow one of the trails through the leafy greenery to check out the boathouse and timber footbridge at placid Loch Dunmore. 

  • More walks are to be had at Black Spout Wood, just south of this selection of lodges in Pitlochry, towards the rushing Black Spout waterfall. It’s easy to access from the centre of town on waymarked paths through lush woods.
