Perth, the ‘Fair City’, is also often called the ‘Gateway to the Highlands’. Sited on the banks of the River Tay, Perth was, for hundreds of years, the capital of Scotland and during medieval times the bustling little town was known by local folk as St. John’s Toun (St. John’s Town). The name, or Peairt in the Gaelic, derives from the Pictish word which has the meaning of a copse or wood. Today this beautiful small market town is a great place for a vacation in Scotland with a bountiful number of Perth bed and breakfast to choose from ranging from the cheap and economical establishment to the incredibly costly first class five star luxury hotels with gyms and spas with a plethora of facilities and services.
