reviews & awards

The hotel is currently 3 star AA with two coveted AA rosettes for the excellence of its cuisine. Also the proud owner of a Gold Plate from HotelReview Scotland for excellence in dining. We know how important dining is to our customers and our many awards for excellence in cuisine are therefore very important to us. The hotel also features in the discerning Michelin Guide and in Pete Irvine’s Scotland the Best.

However the most important ‘awards’ we receive are the accolades and the countless letters of thanks and appreciation from customers, past and present. Far more satisfying than any plaque on the wall although we have plenty of these too.

The infectious, addictive charm, personality and character of our unmistakeably romantic country house hotel transcends most awards in the thoughts and minds of our guests.

Highlights of the recent HotelReview were noted as

> Countryside setting on the very edge of Perth
> Very likeable Scottish feel to public rooms
> Refurbished bedrooms very inviting
> Rich, panelled dining room
> Very well set-up for events

Some recent independent reviews:-

One of our best hotel experiences ever! The friendly and attentive staff, beautifully maintained rooms and lounges, and homely atmosphere have me counting the days till I can return! Superb food is served in the gorgeous Oak Room restaurant, or the less formal conservatory. The hotel went out of their way to prepare specially marked menus identifying dishes suitable for my dairy intolerance, illustrating the exceptional personal service that seems to be their hallmark. The conservatory is great for watching the resident family of ducks gamboling about in the beautifully maintained gardens that surround the hotel.

Beautiful country house hotel
This hotel is set in stunning grounds with a stream running through with ducks added in just to set the scene. We stayed for a weekend and were sad to be leaving. The bedroom had wonderful views and the cleanliness was of the highest standard that I have seen for many years throughout my travels.
The staff were lovely and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived and all our expectations were more than met. The food is to die for and was by far the best experience of all and that top's excellence.
I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone and will be returning VERY soon.
