Errol and the Carse of Gowrie

Silverwood resort is situated in the Carse of Gowrie. This stretch of flat, fertile land between Perth and Dundee has plenty of pretty villages to visit. Errol is one of the largest local villages, around a 20-minute walk or 5-minute drive from our lodges. From here, you can take this riverside walk along the north bank of the Tay Estuary. Through riverside paths, reed beds and woodland trails, there’s lots of local wildlife, including many species of bird to look out for. This is a circular route, which brings you back to Errol, where you can explore the charming village, including its fountain and mercat cross, and the historic parish church and churchyard.
