A few miles outside the village you will find Ardvorlich House (associated with Sir Walter Scott's "The Legend of Montrose") the home of the Stewarts since 1580. <br /> <br /> Near the entrance to Ardvorlich House you will see a tombstone marking the spot where workmen unearthed the graves of seven Glen Coe men, killed whilst attempting a raid on the house in 1620.<br /> </span></div></td> <td valign="middle" align="center"> <div><img style="margin: 0px;" title="Ardvorlich House" height="153" alt="Ardvorlich House" src="http://www.online-trossachs.co.uk/EZ/ot/ot/imagelibrary/Ardvorlich_House.jpg" width="221" /> </div></td></tr> <tr> <td valign="middle" align="center" colspan="3"> <div> <img style="margin: 10px;" title="View Towards St Fillans and Loch Earn" height="153" alt="View Towards St Fillans and Loch Earn" src="http://www.online-trossachs.co.uk/EZ/ot/ot/imagelibrary/St_Fillans_2.jpg" width="251" align="left" /></div> <div align="left"><span class="Black_Text">This part of Scotland is a paradise for the walker, with leisurely strolls in the surrounding foothills to serious hill treks for the more energetic.<br /> <br /> St Fillans village was laid out in the 19th century by the Drummond family. <br /> <br /> To the east lies the remains of the ancient 7th century Pictish fort of Dundurn. <br /> <br /> There is a large hydro-electric power station in St Fillans, fed from a dam at Loch Lednock high above the village. You would be forgiven for missing the station though, it is underground and was hewn out of solid rock. <br /> <br /> Loch Earn Castle was situated on an island just off St Fillans.
