General
Location
Milnathort is a village within Perth and Kinross, situated at the foot of the Ochil Hills a mile (1.5 km) north of Kinross. Formerly a market town, Milnathort is now largely a residential commuting settlement. Local services include primary and secondary schools, medical facilities and a range of retail outlets.
The area has a rich scenic and cultural heritage with various royal associations in the past including, of course, Mary Queen of Scots who was held prisoner in nearby Loch Leven Castle from where she escaped for a final, brief period of freedom.
Of course, the loch is perhaps better known as one of Scotland’s premier trout fisheries and the surrounding countryside provides vast scope for outdoor recreational pursuits.
The M90 provides excellent access, with the county town of Perth being approximately 16 miles to the north and Edinburgh 27 miles to the south.
 
Description
The site extends to approximately 12.9 Acres (5.2Ha) and comprises the ‘green field’ area immediately to the north-east of the village and bounded on the north side by the M90 motorway.
The site occupies a relatively elevated position with views over the adjacent village to Loch Leven and the surrounding hills.
