Shopping
Holidays and short breaks in Highland Perthshire are not
complete without at least some time allocated for that number
one activity………shopping! Highland Perthshire's
towns and villages have their fair share of familiar high
street names but a key feature of the area is the number of
family owned stores that exist and the extensive range of
speciality shopping outlets. And nearby Perth's compact city
centre has arguably the best range of speciality shops in
Scotland.
Must visits locally are The House of Bruar - Scotland's most
prestigious country store and for many, no trip to Scotland
is complete without visiting 'The Home of Country Clothing'
- the wonderful whisky shop at McPhersons, Pitlochry –
and McNaughtons tartans, highland dress and superb outdoor
clothing store in Pitlochry.
Local crafts people abound. Hunt out some truly stunning
handcrafted ceramics, jewellery, woollens, leather goods and
local arts, at the regular programme of fairs and festivals.
Excellent antiques outlets and art galleries are located throughout
Perthshire.
