The tranquil hamlet of Inchyra enjoys a wonderful location on the banks of the River Tay. The village of Glencarse is about 1 mile away. It has one hotel and a shop. Post Office facilities can be found in the neighbouring village of St Madoes. There are a number of other good hotels / pubs within a few miles which serve excellent bar food. Inchyra is an ideal location to escape the hurly burly of city life. However a car is essential to make the most of the area.
