Lost In Translation

You'll find this gallery tucked away near Dunkeld, and it's one of those places that rewards curiosity. Lost In Translation is a contemporary space focused on poetry and visual art - the kind of spot where words and images actually talk to each other rather than just exist in the same room.

The gallery itself is intimate. Don't expect sprawling exhibition halls; instead, you get something more focused and deliberate. The work tends toward the literary and conceptual, so if you're after traditional landscape paintings or sculpture, look elsewhere. But if you're someone who reads poetry, enjoys thinking about how language works visually, or just appreciate galleries that take themselves seriously without being pretentious, it's genuinely worth an hour.

Practically speaking, admission details are thin on the ground - worth ringing ahead or checking their website before you go. Allow a solid hour, maybe ninety minutes if the current show really grabs you. It's not the kind of place to rush through.

If you're staying at Inver Mill Farm Caravan Park just down the road, or Erigmore over near Verdant Parks, this makes an easy addition to a Perthshire break. It pairs well with walks along the Tay and visits to Dunkeld's cathedral ruins - gives you a bit of cultural ballast alongside the outdoor stuff. Worth the detour if poetry interests you; probably a miss if you're after something more mainstream.
