Overall Rating

We visited here during our stay in Pitlochry. There was disabled parking by the door into the shop. There is a small step into the shop no higher than 1/2 to 1 inch easy for my wheelchair to get over. Staff were happy to assist with opening the doors. We watched a video that lasted for approx 7-8 mins on how they use the heather to make the jewellery . This was in a room near to the factory access to this room was easy. The only problem was the windows to look into factory as you go past and the samples were far too high for me to see in or access the samples. But luckily enough a member of staff was leaving the area with a tray full of partly varnished items and she spoke with us and showed us the items on the tray. She was taking them away to get another layer of varnish after having them sanded. There was plenty of room to get round the gift shop, items were well displayed and it was easy to see everything, staff were helpful .
