The Hermitage

Welcome

Follow in the footprints of Queen Victoria, William Wordsworth and composer Felix Mendelssohn by stepping into this sylvan world of Douglas firs and chuckling rivers, a spread of forest created as the pleasure-ground by the 3rd Duke of Atholl – who allegedly used a cannon to scatter seeds into harder-to-reach areas.

Look for the Black Linn waterfall, and the manmade curiosity that is Ossian’s Hall of Mirrors.
