WHY NOT JOIN US FOR FUN, FITNESS AND FRIENDSHIP AT WINTER SCHOOL in Pitlochry, Perthshire. Situated at the start of the highland line, both the dramatic scenery of the highlands and Cairngorm National Park and the gentle slopes of the lowlands are within a few miles. Come and experience the beautiful scenery as well as sharing a wonderful Scottish country dance experience!

 

Accommodation is in the beautiful 4-star Victorian Atholl Palace Hotel, which dominates the Pitlochry skyline and provides magnificent views of the surrounding countryside. All rooms are en suite and are furnished to a high standard. Click on the image to link to the hotel's own website.

Most of the accommodation offered in the hotel is shared in either twin beds or double bed, or in a family room, sleeping 3.  There is a very limited number of single occupancy rooms, supplement payable, and these are allocated on a 'first come first served basis'.
