Rannoch Barracks was a military barracks constructed in 1746 at Bridge of Gaur (Braes of Rannoch), Perthshire, Scotland, at the western end of Loch Rannoch. The barracks were built in response to the Jacobite uprising of 1745.

The present Rannoch Barracks is the Scottish residence of Baron Pearson of Rannoch, a British businessman and the former leader of the UK Independence Party (UKIP). Situated on a 6,000-acre (2,400 ha) estate, the shooting lodge is named after the former barracks.

The Barracks are near to the church and deserted hamlet at Braes of Rannoch.
