Great stay. Our room was large and cozy, with a comfortable bed. Great room amenities and tasty breakfast. However, we were a bit disappointed because we had booked and prepaid the 5-course tasting menu for diner at the hotel restaurant, which was canceled by the hotel, without any communication to us.

We had a fantastic stay at Soarsa 1875. Everything from start to finish was brilliant. A very friendly welcome, excellent cocktails and the food was delicious. It's a great location for walks in the surrounding area and close to the shops in Pitlochr too. We will definitely be staying again!

We were initially excited to arrive at the hotel, but our enthusiasm quickly faded when the owner responded abruptly upon hearing about our dinner cancellation at Saorsa. She then informed us that “we wouldn’t find anything worthwhile in town”. Unfortunately, her attitude persisted throughout our two nights. Regrettably our overall experience was disappointing as she didn’t even offer a simple good morning or farewell.

Didn’t seem overly friendly! Nice, but small rooms and could hear everything in the next rooms.

Super nice stay at Saorsa in Killiekrankie in an old beautiful house. Decorated in a more modern style than the facade. Served delicious vegan food, which we really enjoyed trying and helped us plan our hiking trip!

We really enjoyed our stay at Saorsa 1875. The facility was very cute and well put together. Grounds were pleasant and fun to explore. Pitlochry itself is a short walk away. Breakfast was generous and delicious.
We weren’t a fan of the smell of the soap provided and the room itself would benefit greatly from some additional ventilation, my suggestion would be to install a bathroom fan to vent some of the steam during/after a shower.
Overall, I would recommend staying at Saorsa 1875. The place is beautiful and the staff is friendly.
