Things To Do
Jane’s family run the Grewar Farm Shop in Dronley (near Muirhead), a great place to buy local produce, gifts and to support the local community.
Quite possibly the best ice cream made from the freshest stawberries, blackberries and raspberries you will ever taste.
Royal Highland Show
For those arriving the weekend before the wedding, there is the Royal Highland Show taking place next to Edinburgh Airport.
Golf
The local area is host to some fantastic courses within an hours drive including St Andrews, Carnoustie, Gleneagles. James is a member of the nearby Blairgowrie Golf Club, there is also Strathmore which is another good local course.
Shooting
Clay pigeon shooting can be arranged at Auchterhouse Country Sports
The V&A Design Museum is in Riverside right on the bank of the River Tay. There are always several exhibitions on.
Local Walks (especially for Shakespeare lovers)
Ballo Woods - cracking views over the Vale of Strathmore, fairly flat, 5 min drive from S. Corston
Dunsinane Hill - as mentioned in McBeth “Till Birnam wood remove to Dunsinane” - you’ll find the woods near Dunkeld and Dunsinane ~10min drive from S. Corston. Probably easier to link the two by bike than foot!
The North Coast 500 is a 516 mile scenic route around the north coast of Scotland. Those who are visiting Scotland for a few days before / after the wedding might want to consider this!
Dunkeld
Dunkeld is a postcard-perfect riverside town. Visit the 12th-century Cathedral by the River Tay, and stroll The Hermitage’s giant Douglas firs to Ossian’s Hall. Browse independent shops, cafés and pubs, or nip over the bridge to Birnam and the Beatrix Potter Garden. There is also mountain biking and we are fans of the Taybank Pub with a great pub garden on the bank of the Tay.
Munros
For those who fancy a challenge and up for some “Munro bagging”, Càrn Aosda, The Cairnwell, Càrn a’ Ghèoidh, Glas Maol & Creag Leacach are all accessable from the Glenshee Ski Centre
