Fortingall Hotel

Highland Perthshire


A peaceful, old-fashioned country hotel furnished with good taste. The bedrooms are spotless, with huge beds, modern bathrooms, and little extras such as bathrobes, whisky and DVD players. Rooms look out over green meadows; in all a perfect spot for doing very little except enjoying the clean air and excellent dinners.
