Knockendarroch Hotel in Pitlochry

"At Knockendarroch we believe that the best hotel experiences result from a carefully balanced blend of quality, comfort, style and service."

This is what drives us at Knockendarroch and our constantly evolving guest experience is built on this belief. The elusive 'perfect blend' may always be just around the corner, but we like to think we are doing a pretty good job of chasing it down.

If this approach to hospitality strikes a chord with you, then we think you might really enjoy a stay with us at our hotel in Pitlochry.
