Accommodation in Crieff
Crieff is the second largest town in Perthshire, with a fascinating history. It came to prominence as a major cattle market and commercial centre during the 18th century, in part because General Wade's military road-building put the town on the main marching route from Stirling to Perth in the early 1700s. A later wave of Victorian house building helped Crieff prosper and grow further, and the interest and attractiveness of the architectural legacy were acknowledged when much of the town was declared a Conservation Area in 2009.
