Welcome to Macdonalds Restaurant & Guest House

The Restaurant & Guest House are now closed for the winter months.  We look forward to re-opening in the Spring.  Online and telphone bookings are still available for 2012 for the guest house and self-catering and we check our e-mails regularly.  The Chippy is still open during the winter months.

This popular non smoking Guesthouse and Restaurant has a loyal following. Don’t even think about trying to get a room here at the start of the Pitlochry theatre season. While the rooms are nicely decorated and hospitality enormous, the best thing about the place is undoubtedly the food. Also you can’t beat the price.” ’Scotland for Dummies Travel Guide’ 2001
