Development Potential
There is no doubt that there is great development potential within the grounds of Knock Castle to create further bedrooms or add additional lodges or 'pods' taking advantage of the 3.5 acres of woodland that exists, obviously all subject to appropriate planning permission (Perth & Kinross Council - ), however a possibility nonetheless.
Consideration may be given to selling the hotel and the lodge as separate lots - further details from selling agents.
