Historic 1695 hotel with on-site microbrewery in Pitlochry
Dining & Brewery
The Moulin Hotel operates its own microbrewery, producing real ales such as Old Remedial and Braveheart. Free brewery tours are available daily, allowing guests to see where the beer is made. The hotel's pub and restaurant serves quality traditional Scottish food, including generous portions of steak pie and locally sourced ingredients.
Rooms & Accommodation
Guest rooms are individually designed and offer modern amenities like flat-screen TVs and free WiFi. The hotel provides pet-friendly rooms and caters to families with large rooms and cottage options such as Lilac Cottage. All rooms include a range of comforts, though the building's age means no elevators and some rooms are up narrow staircases.
Location & Activities
The hotel sits 0.8 miles from Pitlochry railway station and 3/4 mile from the town centre. Nearby attractions include Blair Castle (7.8 miles), Pitlochry Festival Theatre (2 miles), and Cairngorms National Park. The location provides access to walking routes up Ben-y-Vrackie and scenic views over the Perthshire Highlands.
History & Character
First opened in 1695, the original Moulin Inn forms the oldest part of the hotel, with two log fires and a stocked bar of real ales. The building retains historical features like dark wooden panels, original fireplaces, and vintage photographs dating to Victorian times. Guests can relax in comfortable seating areas or the outdoor beer garden with views of the surrounding hills.
Family & Pet Policies
The hotel welcomes families with large rooms and self-catering cottages that sleep up to six guests. Pet-friendly accommodations are available, and the pub staff often offer treats and attention to dogs. The property has free on-site parking and is a short walk from the town centre, making it suitable for guests with mobility concerns who can manage stairs.
