    The well-groomed town of Crieff sits on the slopes of the Grampian foothills overlooking the wide Strathearn valley. It's a popular tourist centre and a good base for exploring the western part of Perthshire and the Trossachs.

    A beautiful Scottish glen which is home to the world famous Gleneagles Hotel - a 5 star country house hotel and championship golf course, which will host the 2014 Ryder Cup.

  • Aberfoyle
