Where to Stay in Perthshire

Gleneagles. Our choice for the finest hotel in all of Britain. Maybe the world! Here you have everything: world class, five-star hotel, golf, spa, horseback riding, archery, clay shooting, falconry, off-road exploring, fishing, great food, and great Gaelic coffee.

Auchterarder House. Scottish Jacobean style country house retaining many original features in a Renaissance theme. Situated on 17 acres of grounds and parkland with over 400 rhododendrons.

Cameron House. On Loch Lomond, this is a perfect place to end your stay before departing from Glasgow Airport, only 20 minutes away.

Lodge on Loch Lomond. Right outside your room window is beautiful Loch Lomond. Bedrooms are lined with Caledonian Red Pine. This is Scotland's only hotel with a sauna in the room.

Gleneagles, the Palace of the Glens, lies at the foot of the Scottish Highlands but is only a one hour drive from the international airports at Edinburgh and Glasgow. There is an adjoining railway station with express trains to Edinburgh and Glasgow as well as daytime and overnight sleeper service to London.

A few little known facts: At Gleneagles, there is slightly more than one staff member per guest. There are over 50 chefs in the kitchen brigade using, per year, a million strawberries, 75 pounds of caviar, over 25000 pounds of Scottish Border lamb, 3000 fresh Scottish salmon, 1.3 million prawns, 7560 pounds of Aberdeen Angus fillet steak, 10 thousand scallops, 200 turkeys, and 200 pounds of lobster. Over 1200 flowers are used each day to create the floral displays.

Over 500 tons of sand are used each year to top dress the three golf course greens. Each day, 850 sprinkler heads apply 350 thousand gallons of water to the golf courses (12 million gallons of water are held in storage lakes for the Monarch's Course alone).
