Penny Hedge
Mark and Sue Johnson have a lovely hide at Penny Hedge near Blairgowrie in Perthshire. During the day you'll have Red Squirrels galore and all the woodland birds you need. Once darkness arrives, so do the Pine Martens!
Sue also bakes a wicked Lemon Drizzle Cake and provides hot water bottles and coffee... what's not to like!
