Kinross-shire, Scotland is a beautiful county bordered by
Perthshire, Fife and Clackmannanshire. Set amidst gently rolling
hills it is the ideal location for hillwalking, golf, cycling,
fishing, bird watching or just relaxing and enjoying the beauty
of Scotland. The county town, Kinross, is situated at junction
6 on the M90 providing easy access from Edinburgh, Glasgow,
Dundee and Perth. Known as the gateway to the Highlands, Kinross-shire
nestles around Loch Leven where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned
in 1567 on Castle Island.
For a small county Kinross-shire is rich in history and natural
beauty. Queen Margaret of Scotland, William Wallace and Robert
the Bruce are just a few of the well known British historic
figures who have visited the area. Kinross is also the favoured
destination of many feathered visitors including thousands
of geese who winter here every year.
