LOCATION

The charming village of Braco sits quietly in beautiful, rolling South Perthshire countryside, a couple of miles off the A9 and on the tourist route to Crieff and Comrie. The village has a primary school, with secondary education available at Auchterarder around five miles to the northeast, Dunblane, six miles to the south, and Crieff, approximately nine miles to the north. As well as a church, community hall, playground and bowling green, the village has a general store and newsagent, which caters for everyday needs. Extensive retail, commercial and cultural facilities are available in Stirling, and Perth, and Auchterarder’s burgeoning selection of shops and cafes is nearby. Gleneagles Hotel and golf complex is a 10-minute drive away, as is the award-winning Cromlix Hotel.

The nearest railway station is in Dunblane, where all local services and amenities are readily accessible, while the city of Stirling is only a ten-minute drive to the south. The beautiful and historic City of Dunblane gains its city status from the magnificent 13th-century cathedral that dominates the local landscape. It boasts primary and secondary schools with first-class reputations, provides good leisure facilities with a challenging 18-hole golf course, numerous sports and social clubs, including the local tennis club and excellent Dunblane Youth and Sports Centre. The Riverside Restaurant, the acclaimed Tilly Tearoom, as well as the DoubleTree by Hilton Dunblane Hydro hotel, have made Dunblane an ever-popular location. With its easy access to the road and rail network covering central Scotland and beyond, this area remains highly desirable among house hunters.
