Very, very impressed. They couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating. Attractive, warm, comfortable room with all the facilities I could need. An excellent breakfast, with suitable choices. Helpful staff, who made time to see all was well for the day and our onward journey. Cannot praise too highly. Will certainly visit again, and recommend to others.

My husband, sister and I spent 4 nights at The Firs while touring the nearby countryside. Kristie is a friendly, helpful host and made sure that we visited the most interesting places and ate in pubs and restaurants that we enjoyed. Blair Atholl is a tiny charming town, close to Pitlochry, but away from the busy tourist route. Our rooms were lovely, as was breakfast. We highly recommend the First.

Truly one of the finest places I've stayed at during my time in Scotland. I arrived with soaking shoes, and a soaking tent (it had rained the night before). After I had decided to stay the night, I was offered to have my tent taken for drying, and all my wet clothes. Offered, I repeat, I didn't even ask. The room I stayed in was excellent, with great accommodations, and extremely confortable. And the breakfast in the morning was definitely one of the tastier ones I've eaten here. Simple, but delicious. Honestly, if you're staying in Blair Atholl or are in the area, do yourself a true favor and

When on a driving holiday, adventure as I call it, meaning, getting the car on the road and let it roll, anything can happen. As the day comes to an end and when you need a place to stay (not booked in advance) and you find a place like this, you fill like the universe is on your side.
