This Victorian mansion, complete with a little private chapel (which is today used for wedding ceremonies), was built in 1874 as a family residence. Although it has been transformed into a hotel, with 14 guestrooms, the owners have managed to retain the grandeur and warmth of what was originally the estate of a distinguished Scottish family. Guests will experience this unique atmosphere from the moment they step inside the imposing, carved sandstone doorway and into the wood-panelled porch to the restful reception hall, with its inviting armchairs and log fire. For the business traveller, the hotel can provide a number of rooms which will compliment the desired ambience, for board level brainstorming sessions, major presentations, product launches or team building, and equipment specifications can be arranged in advance. Further facilities include a restaurant and a car park.
Set within 2,000 secluded acres of fields and woodland, there are lochs and moor land all at guests' disposal. By car, the hotel is 1 hour from Edinburgh, 45 minutes from Glasgow, 30 minutes from Perth and 20 minutes from Stirling.
Only fresh, seasonal, locally-sourced produce (where possible) is used to create some of the finest meals, all prepared on-site, including the hotels famously delicious shortbread. The wine list is comprehensive, offering an exceptional selection from Old World and New. There is also an outstanding choice of whiskies, including a broad selection of malts, from Highland, Lowland and Island distilleries. A distinct feature of the hotel is its offer of private dining, available for between one and 44 guests in one of the hotel's unique rooms.
