I remember staying at Kilvrecht way back in 1989 or 90, a nice site, and a lovely area - big country.

Lovely photos. Looks like a really good relaxed break. Thanks for posting.

I particularly like the shot of Loch Rannoch through the trees.


"Prices

 £10.00 per pitch, per night for visitors with a vehicle.
£5.00 per pitch, per night for visitors with no vehicle.
Just turn up, choose a pitch and the warden will collect your money from you."


..and the campsite charges are very reasonable - unlike the 'Camping in the Forest' site at Glenmore!

Great pictures strawy. Looks an interesting and varied 4 days you had. I have vague memories of Pitlochry dam from when I was a young nipper.

Lovely, thank you. I fear I may verge on being a gricer. My recent big birthday my treat was to 'drive' the steam train on a busy scheduled run from Paignton to Kingswear.
