Killin: a place to relax
The main street in Killin is flanked by attractive stone-built cottages and larger Victorian houses. With the backdrop of the Tarmachan Hills, this is a popular and photogenic village in all seasons and all weathers.
 
There are several shops, Tourist Information Centre, a bank (with Autoteller), a post office, hotels with public bars, public houses and more. There are lots of places to visit, including National Trust areas, standing stones and historical sites; the disbanded railway track is open for walkers and cyclists.
Our guest house is situated right in the centre of the village looking out towards the Loch.

 

The winter snow delights the hardy mountaineers; springtime brings a variety of unusual flowers especially on nearby Ben Lawers; summertime is for folk festivals and Highland Games; in autumn there's the blazing colours, game hunting and whisky tasting to savour.
 
At any time of year you can go walking.
 The Rob Roy Way
The Rob Roy Way is a walk from north Glasgow to Pitlochry, by way of Killin and Loch Tay. For information on the local section, check out their website.

Killin: a base for activities and touring Scotland.
The Falls of Dochart by the bridge in Killin is a pleasant spot to sit when the rock slabs run dry, and a spectacular white water torrent in wet weather. These waters flow into Loch Tay and both the river and the loch attract fishermen.
 
The hills and woods attract a great variety of wildlife and birds. Look for red squirrels on Inchbuie, the sacred island of the MacNabs, accessible from Killin bridge; or walk beside the River Lochay to Loch Tay to see water-birds and more.
