Perth connects to the regional road network via the A9, M90, A93, A85. These roads handle motorhomes and caravans without major difficulty, though some routes in Scotland include single-carriageway sections where overtaking is limited. If you are towing a caravan, allow extra time on narrower roads and be prepared to use passing places where they exist. Fuel is available at multiple fuel stations on approach roads and the a9, and it is a good idea to fill up before heading into more remote areas where fuel stations are spread further apart. For grocery shopping, tesco, sainsbury's, aldi, and lidl provide everything you need for stocking up the motorhome. Larger motorhomes and twin-axle caravans should check the approach roads to individual touring parks, as some rural sites in Scotland are accessed via narrow lanes. The main routes are well-maintained year-round, though winter conditions in Scotland can include ice, snow, and reduced daylight hours that affect driving in a larger vehicle. If you are arriving from outside the area, the A9 is the primary approach route. Sat-nav coordinates for specific caravan parks and motorhome sites are more reliable than postcodes in rural areas, so get the grid reference or what3words location before you set off.
