About this attraction

About Comrie Village, Perthshire

Comrie is a picturesque village in the heart of Strathearn, renowned as Scotland's earthquake centre due to its location on the Highland Boundary Fault. The village has a long tradition of seismic observation, and the nearby Earthquake House documents this unique geological heritage. The main settlement clusters around the bridge over the River Earn, with traditional stone cottages and a village green that reflect centuries of rural Scottish life.

The village serves as an excellent base for exploring the wider Comrie Valley, with walks leading to the Deil's Cauldron waterfall, Twenty Shilling Wood, and upland moorland. Local amenities include shops, accommodation, and hospitality venues. Comrie's significance as both a geological site and a well-connected settlement makes it a natural stopping point on the journey between Perth and Crieff, offering insight into both the land's dramatic geological past and its present-day rural character.
