    Had a fabulous visit with our coach holiday today. The visit was made extra special by our tour guide Mary who was so knowledgeable, amusing and friendly. Definitely the best guide I’ve ever seen and listened to. A stunning palace with mountains of history and beautiful things to see inside and out.
    Sadly the gift shop and cafe weren’t open today but we were able to look round the stunning grounds.

    Kinnoull Hill was one of the highlights of my trip to Scotland - the views from the top were incredible. I was lucky enough to see a rainbow while I was at the top which made the view even better 🤩

    It was quite a steep walk up through the woods (which was trickier going downhill) but there were some benches once you get to the very top which make a nice spot for a picnic lunch.

    Really interesting historic attraction, the staff were absolutely lovely too. So many extras to help you enjoy the attraction - torches to look at the detailed paintings and so on.

    Beautiful gardens with huge variety of flowers, plants, trees. Self-guided walk through the two acres allowed us to stroll at our own pace and stop to take photos.

    Popped in as we found ourselves at a loose end in Perth. Was wonderful to see a lovely building redecorated in a unique and innovative way was lovely. Loved the kids area, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Loved the young Scot's collection, great that a local charity is doing so much for the community and raising awareness of diversity. Also liked the historical awareness, was great for all the family.

    We went to see Walk Right Back - the Everly Brothers story which was excellent. The concert hall is a nice modern venue with good views from all seats. It has good modern facilities and a bar and coffee shop.

    On a very wet day we arrived at Stanley Mills to be greeted by two lovely ladies on reception . We spent probably an hour and a half navigating our way to all floor of this very interesting building. When funds allow a bigger cafe and shop would be an asset.

    Quality beer, both theirs and the ones from others. The pizza was also excellent. Came in here for tea and refreshments last night and am back for lunch before going back home on the train. I know I should try other places next time I’m in the city but it will be hard to see beyond such a great place now I know it’s here.
