    I have really enjoyed your videos about Blairgowrie and Rattray. Unfortunately, we can't visit now due to the pandemic, but we have made sure to stay a week or so on each of our last three trips from the USA. We usually stay at the Brooklynn Mill Loft. Love the path from the Mill along the river to town. Blairgowrie is easy to get around on foot. Great shops, coffee, music (guitar) store. Blairgowrie is really convenient to Dunkeld, the Cairngorms for hiking, Cateran trail, and so forth. A truly great place to be. I hope my wife and I can visit again after travel opens up. Best wishes.

      @@ThisIsKylesLife I love the wide spaces and forests. When moving we are looking for somewhere quiet, an hour's drive from city ( for work) but edge/outskirts of a town with links to city, been looking at Blairgowrie. I need trees and sky.
      I have been to Killin and around there,cried when I left Scotland, I felt like I was leaving home.I am a huge creative an the surroundings are inspirational. It's very beautiful and amazing people,but I'm a bit wary of midge madness!
      Open to suggestions and insider knowledge though! Love

    Wonderful work, Kyle. Could you do a feature on the local pubs? I'd love a virtual ale at the Ericht Ale House or a sing-along at The Cartwheel Inn.
