Set amidst the gently rolling hills of rural Kinross-shire, the
development commands stunning views over the loch, home to RSPB Vane Farm
Nature Reserve and evocative of Scotland's rich history. It was here that
Mary Queen of Scots was incarcerated in 1567, and ferries run regularly
to the castle where she languished for some months before making her
escape.
Thanks to a newly-created Heritage Trail, you can explore the loch by
foot or by bicycle, taking full advantage of the wealth of bird-watching
and fishing opportunities on offer. |

Outdoor enthusiasts are admirably catered for with an extensive network
of tracks through Blairadam Forest that are ideal for cycling and
horse-riding; the Scottish Gliding Centre is just along the road at
Portmoak, and more than 100 golf courses - including the famous Old Course and Gleneagles - are within easy striking distance. |
