About Birchwood Hotel hotel
A fine, Scottish family house, superbly set within two acres, mainly natural woodland overlooking Pitlochry. Looking out on the garden, our restaurant offers the best of fresh, Scottish produce.
Birchwood is a charming example of Victorian architecture - a fine, Scottish family house, superbly set within two acres, mainly natural woodland, but with a generous sweep of lawn, overlooking the town of Pitlochry. The character of the country house with darkwood-panelled hall, open fire on colder months in the lounge, enhanced by comfortable furnishings, has been carefully retained. Your resident hosts assure you of the warmth of welcome and individual attention, which ensures your stay is spent in a relaxed, convivial atmosphere. Looking out on the garden, our restaurant offers the best of fresh, Scottish produce. The quality of the dining experience is one of the main attractions for the many repeat visitors. The menu, recreated daily by Viv, is complimented by a selection of fine wines. Birchwood is an entirely NON SMOKING establishment. Pitlochry is perfectly located to be your Scottish holiday base. At the geographical heart of the country, it is the ideal springboard for exploration, both far-flung and near. Within a half hour drive you can enjoy Tummel and Loch Rannoch, on the legendary Road to the Isles. Walking, cycling (off and on road), climbing, fishing and water-sports are all readily available for the active, while all can experience breathtaking scenery - ravishing new vistas with every bend in the road.
