Crook of Devon is a small rural village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, sited where the River Devon makes a distinctive bend at the foot of the Ochil Hills. The bend gives the place its name and frames a compact cluster of houses and farms set in a quiet river valley with easy access to hillwalking and riverside walks.

Historically the village acted as a local market and coaching stop serving the agricultural hinterland and droving routes; today its economy is largely agricultural with a modest contribution from tourism and outdoor recreation. Visitors appreciate the scenic setting, simple stone-built village character and proximity to other historic sites in the region, making it a peaceful base for exploring central Scotland’s countryside.
