Set in the pretty village of Muthill (pronounced mooth-il), 3 miles south of Crieff, the Barley Bree is a delightfully rustic restaurant with rooms. Wooden floorboards, stone fireplace, stacked logs and deer antlers set the scene for dishes of fine Scottish seafood, beef and game; half a dozen luxurious bedrooms (doubles from £115) tempt you to stay the night.
