CROOK OF DEVON, KINROSS-SHIRE - A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE

Drum is a small rural hamlet attractively nestling within the Ochil Hills. The adjacent village of Crook of Devon is peacefully located within 4/5 miles of the

M90 Motorway and Kinross. The village amenities include a Post Office, Primary School of excellent reputation, local shop and Petrol Station. Kinrossshire frequently comes near the top of 'Best Places to Live' surveys. It has long been a popular location given its central position in relation to the major Cities and Towns of east and central Scotland. Edinburgh, Perth, Dundee and Stirling are all very commutable and even Glasgow is only around an hour or so by car. There is a Park and Ride' service from Kinross to Edinburgh and good bus links to the other major towns and cities. Kinross-shire has, however, much more to offer. The primary Schools throughout the area are all extremely highly rated. Kinross High School is widely recognised as one of the best comprehensive schools in the country and a host of highly rated public schools including Dollar Academy are within easy travelling distance. The area is renowned for its country walks and the Loch Leven

Heritage Trail has been an excellent initiative popular with walkers and cyclists alike. There are facilities for golf, tennis, fishing, swimming, squash, gliding, curling, cricket, rugby and other fitness and aerobic sports. Add to the mix a wide range of clubs and organisations and it quickly becomes clear why Kinross-Shire is a popular location for the young and not so young alike.
