A Storied Stay at the Gateway to the Scottish Highlands

A HANDCRAFTED HOTEL

The Birnam Hotel is rooted in the land, people, and culture of Perthshire. Inspired by the ancient trees of Birnam Wood, the winding River Tay, and the creative spirit of our village, every detail reflects our connection to this place. Created by the small, local team behind The Taybank in Dunkeld, we’re proudly independent and dedicated to offering a storied stay in Scotland.

OUR STORY

THE BIRNAM INN

Pop-up pub opening Friday 3 April

We’re delighted to share that we’re opening the Birnam Inn this Easter weekend, and every weekend thereafter.

It’s been a quick, hands-on effort to get the doors open, so this isn’t the full grand reveal just yet. Instead, you can expect a simple, welcoming pub: an open fire, local beers, seasonal pies and sides, and a relaxed garden space beneath Birnam Hill.

Every drink you buy will support our team and contribute directly to the ongoing restoration of the hotel.

We look forward to welcoming you.

OPENING HOURS

Friday - Sunday: 12pm - 10pm
Please note we do not take reservations.

Children accompanied by an adult are welcome until 8pm, and we are dog-friendly.

BEDROOMS & SUITES

At The Birnam Hotel, each individually designed bedroom has its own story. Currently undergoing thoughtful renovation, each room will be furnished with handpicked Scottish treasures and textiles, Victorian-inspired en-suites, and framed by views of the surrounding hills and trees.
