Riverside lodge was in a gorgeous area of perthshire in scotland. There were plenty of places to visit, for walks, eating and lovely scenery. The lodge itself was great, with everything we needed, and a fantastic welcome basket. Johan, the owner met us, and gave us lots of info about the area. I would definitely recommend this lodge for a great place to stay.
