Gleneagles in brief
Gleneagles is a sprawling Perthshire estate that opened in the 1920s and has been a byword for Scottish hospitality ever since. It suits almost any kind of traveller: golfers, families, food lovers and anyone who simply wants to switch off in beautiful countryside.
Beyond its famous courses — one of which hosted the 2014 Ryder Cup — the estate offers falconry, gundog training, horse riding, off-road driving and fishing, plus an excellent spa.
Getting there
Gleneagles has its own railway station on the line between Glasgow and Perth, a few minutes' drive from the hotel. Edinburgh and Glasgow airports are each roughly an hour away by car.
Rooms & suites
Rooms range from cosy, classically styled doubles to expansive suites with estate views. Interiors mix tartan, tweeds and Art Deco details with contemporary comfort.
Eat & drink
The estate holds several restaurants, from relaxed all-day dining to a celebrated fine-dining room with Michelin recognition. The bars are a highlight, particularly for whisky and cocktails.
