Knockendarroch House ReviewBuilt in 1880, this award-winning Victorian mansion opens onto panoramic views of the Tummel Valley, and is set amid lovely gardens. The bedrooms, which vary in size and style, are attractively decorated in cool colors. The cozy attic units have balconies overlooking the rooftops of Pitlochry. Guests are offered a free glass of sherry before dinner, which might be wild venison chops in red-wine and juniper-berry jus; mushroom and nut roast on the chiffonade of cabbage in rich tomato and sherry sauce; or baked filet of halibut served on a bed of braised cabbage and smoked bacon wrapped in dill sauce. The food is first-rate, and prices are more moderate than might be expected. Overall, the warmth of the staff and the evocative atmosphere of the mansion make it a place worth visiting.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
