Bamff House (1)
From Clunie, I have driven through Blairgowrie and then north out of Alyth, into the area known as the Forest of Alyth, on the edge of the Highland mountains.  The word 'forest' refers to its having been an ancient hunting ground.  

Bamff House (often miss-spelt Banff) sits in foothill country, pretty squarely on the Highland Fault, that crosses Scotland from Helensburgh to Stonehaven and divides the country into its good bits and bad bits!!  Although the house stands in Strathmore, and the Braes of Angus climb up to the north, this is still just within the old county of Perthshire.

The same family have lived here for 800 years!
