Almondbank is a small village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, lying a few miles to the west of Perth on the banks of the River Almond. It sits in a sheltered valley of mixed farmland and woodland, so the setting lends itself to riverside walks, angling and easy access to the wider Perthshire countryside while still being within commuting distance of the city.
Historically the settlement grew around water-powered milling and local rural trades, and over the years it has become largely residential with a mixture of older cottages and more modern housing; small local businesses and community organisations give the village a close-knit feel. Its riverside location and quiet lanes make it attractive to visitors looking for a brief taste of rural life close to urban amenities.
