Can’t say I’ve noticed toilets but there is a village cafe/shop which might have some.
Just after you go past the speed limit sign on the left coming from the west. Good size parking space. The next easily available ones are Tesco in Perth tho' there are ones in Comrie just off the main road and Crieff ones not very acessible. I used to boast that if dropped blindfold from a helicopter anywhere in Scotland I could point in the direction of the nearest toilet block. Mind you some on the Clyde coast are best avoided.

It used to be popular with the distance running community, opened and left to go flat. Probably the caffeine content, plus placebo effect.
Friend of mine did the West Highland Way by mountain bike in just over 11 hours and had a diet of flat coke and fig rolls.

Oh yes, I know where you mean now. Opposite the big lay by. I was thinking in the actual village.

I loved cycling in Perthshire.
I would ride twice a month from Leuchars to Auchterarder to work as an Engineer at the Strathallan Collection ... after spending the week working on Phantoms. :rolleyes:
I would also ride to Killin to meet up with the Mountain Rescue team i was a member of for weekend training ... but the bike went back in the lorry ... and on 2 occasions in a Wessex helicopter ...lol
I stayed at RAF Leuchars for 5 wonderful years
Perthshire and Fife are a cycling heaven ....
Lucky you Mo1959 ...:smile:

Had a great ride this morning with the Sunday morning team, 68km around that there London. Every time we go out there's always something new to learn, a building or church that has a lot of history or is just an amazing design. Every day's a school day!
Luckily the rain held off, but the wind was blowing fiercely making it tough going at times.
