R Hannigan Art & Design

R Hannigan Art & Design sits quietly in Aberfeldy, the sort of place you'd walk past if you weren't paying attention. It's a contemporary gallery focused on original artwork and design pieces, run with the kind of personal touch you only get from independent operators who actually care what hangs on their walls.

Inside, expect to find a curated mix of paintings, sculpture, and craftwork from both established and emerging artists. The space itself is modest - no vast echoing rooms or pretentious installations - which means the work gets proper attention rather than disappearing into white-walled vastness. If you're serious about visual art, or looking to support local makers, it's absolutely worth an hour of your time. Kids might find it a bit slow unless they're already interested in galleries; it's not a splash-about kind of place.

The gallery works well as a cultural pause during a Perthshire holiday. Aberfeldy has that solid small-town feel - decent coffee shops, the River Tay nearby - so you can make an afternoon of it. If you're camped at Aberfeldy Caravan Park just down the road, it's a five-minute stroll. Even from Pitilie Pods or Grandtully Station Campsite, it's worth the short drive. Check before you visit though - opening hours aren't widely advertised online, so a quick phone call could save a wasted trip.
