Dalguise (Scottish Gaelic Dàil Ghiuthais) is a settlement in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It is situated on the western side of the River Tay on the B898 road, 8 km north of Dunkeld.[1] Located there is Dalguise House, a place where Beatrix Potter stayed in her childhood as a summer visitor, and acted as inspiration for some of her later stories. Dalguise House is now the location of a Kids Activity Centre Dalguise PGL.
