Cottage boosts Cateran Trail

-

Four-star Bolthole Cottage is helping access to the rural east Perthshire countrysid­e step up by joining the Cateran Trail business support scheme.

The Cateran Trail skirts just past Bolthole Cottage, which is also a member of the Cyclists, Walkers and Pets Welcome Schemes.

Mental and physical health and wellbeing are more important than ever during these ongoing times of social distancing and restrictio­ns, so getting outdoors to facilities like the Cateran Trail is a great way to look after these aspects of ourselves.

The Supporting the Cateran Trail scheme was launched in 2020 and allows hotels, B&Bs and businesses of all sizes in Perthshire and Angus along the route to broaden their green credential­s and contribute towards the improved access and maintenanc­e of the much-loved route.

Bolthole Cottage will help contribute towards PKCT’s efforts to improve access along the Cateran Trail and keep it one of Scotland’s Great Trails by collecting a voluntary donation of £1 on every overnight stay.

Lesley and David Anderson, owners of Bolthole Cottage, said:“Supporting the work of PKCT is a genuine win-win, for us and we are especially delighted to be supporting the developmen­t and maintenanc­e of the CateranTra­il.

“The trail is a true gem of Scottish nature, wildlife and walking. We regard ourselves as privileged to have our cottage sitting on such a stunning Scottish countrysid­e asset.”
