Blairgowrie - Day 1

We'd booked a cottage in Blairgowrie for 4 nights. We left late morning and first stopped in Perth for a walk.

We parked in the car park at Bellwood Riverside Park, and walked down towards the river.

We crossed onto Moncrieffe Island using a footbridge next to the railway.

At the northern tip of the island is a causeway, but the river would need to be much lower for this to be usable.



We walked down the island, it consists mainly of some allotments and a golf course.

We couldn't walk round the golf course, so we went back to the river bank and walked north for a bit.



We drove on to our cottage in Blairgowrie, the Gregorton Coachhouse. It's a lovely 2 bedroom cottage in the grounds of a bigger house.





After unpacking we decided to go for a walk into town, about 1.5 miles away. We had a wander round, and would have gone for a pint except the only decent pub is closed on Mondays.

After walking home again we had lasagne and garlic bread which we'd brought with us.
