The grounds are lovely, quiet, peaceful, ducks waddle around waiting to be fed. It’s just lovely. The interior of the cottages are a bit dated and the decor could do with an update. The kitchen is well furnished and had everything we needed for a short stay. Bathrooms could definitely do with an update and the showers were woefully pathetic, no pressure and tiny shower cubicle - in a huge bathroom!!!! The sofas were so uncomfortable we could not get comfortable at all - Doctors waiting room furniture is more welcoming! Having said that we would stay there again as very conveniently located.
2 things to note. Distillery tours are only on Tuesdays and if you want to take some of the Gatehouse Gin home, buy it before checkout as they can’t sell gin before 10am and check out is 10am and we left at 9.45am. read less

The staff couldn't do enough for our group. They had decorated our lodge with Balloons and banners for my birthday and left a birthday card. They arranged late checkout for us too. It's not often you visit a place and can safely say that every single member of staff we interacted with were amazing, friendly and are a credit to the estate.
The lodge itself was beautiful. It was immaculately clean, spacious and modern.
We loved it so much, we have vowed to make this an annual girls weekend retreat.
Would highly recommend. read less

All commented on the high standard of accommodation, stunning setting and delicious food. Victoria and Amber coordinated our wedding and both couldn’t have been more helpful and supportive. The chef organised a delicious wedding menu for us - and all the options were fabulous! All the staff involved were so friendly, professional and went out of there way to meet every request. We truly couldn’t have asked for more. It surpassed everything we could have hoped for. Thank you! read less

It was clean, modern and well equipped- even had fresh bread, milk and eggs. Prior to arrival, a cot, high chair and stair gate were provided making holidaying with a baby so much easier. Beds were comfortable and it was really quiet so we all slept well. The pool/ spa was so relaxing and not busy before 10am. But what really made this a great holiday were the staff. Everyone we had contact with was so friendly- the receptionists, house keeping, bar and restaurant staff. A special mention to Danny the assistant manager of the restaurant who cuddled my baby when she reached out to him! read less

The cottage looked exactly like the photos which is not always the case and considering it is used regularly it was clean and relatively well kept. The crockery, glasses and cutlery sparkled.The grounds were lovely. A welcome pack was supplied by the hotel which was greatly appreciated and as requested we were given a cottage with the living space downstairs. The reception staff were helpful and welcoming and although we didn’t use the leisure facilities we had a few coffees and the girl was very pleasant.. Overall we were very pleased with our visit and would love to return in the future read less

Beds were comfortable. The swimming pool is chilled out, the gym slightly lacks but I severely doubt many people will go there on a holiday! Booked a private dinner on the Saturday night and the food was magnificent, all members of staff throughout the resort were incredibly helpful and cheerful especially the 2 members of staff (guy and a younger girl) that served us on the Saturday night. Would definitely return again! read less

There are different sizes of lodges and also hotel rooms... They are clean, bright and modern with all the equipment you could ever think of,,,was just like your own home it had everything..... The patio was on stilts.....was great as it was sunny that weekend... it was very secure as it held at least 20 people all day and night for two days....From the patio outside you had the most wonderful views of the countryside.....
The staff were helpful and friendly and we called for help to work the oven lol.....all these women and we couldnt get it to work.....well at least five of us who were in the lodge.......the came out less than five minutes.... When you arrive you get a welcoming tray with sugar, milk, bread, jams, salt and pepper and other items... The surrounding area had a play area for the kids a spa centre with steam room , sauna, swimming pool and of course the gym.....It also boasts spa facilities like head massages etc......and also had a lovely tranquil little garden pond area with a four columned gazebo.........
The area around was good for walks up the hills and surrounding paths... easy access from the train station only five mins away and fifteen mins away from Auchterarder town centre....and also five mins from the famous Gleneagles Golf Course.....plenty of parking spaces, environmental friendly with a lovely reclycing zone.....access to hiring bikes...games room for the kids.....restaurant and bar ......
I just hope I gave not forgotten anything as this estate was the best I have ever been in Scotland........bar Gleneagles itself....... I and the other 20 women would recemmend this to anyone whether couples, small or large groups or families it was fantastic and we are already in the process of arranging a visit for my 65th birthday next year and so far double the amount of lodges will be needed.......
So dont hesitate to visit this wonderful place........the ducks were so cute and the teenagers fell in love with them as they would come outside the door / windows of the lodges everyday and even followed them up the road to the park area sometimes.....they were not aggressive...... read less

We were more than happy with all of the facilites on site.
The lodge was very comfortable;
3 bedrooms (with ensuite facilities in two) a comfortable seating area with TV, and a kitchen diner, and a balcony for outdoor eating.
Everything was clean & well maintained and just worked.
The leisure club/pool was great with a pool big enough to swim lengths in as well as a kids pool for younger ones, and sauna & steam room.
(There was a gym area as well, which looked well equipped but I didn't use it myself)
The grounds were peaceful with woodland walks, a BBQ area and a small play area for children with slides and couple of swings. There was very little traffic around the site so it felt quite safe for young children.
The location is quite remote, about 10 minutes drive from the village of Gleneagles (which has a small supermarket and a few shops and restaurants) but within easy drive of Perth and Stirling for days out.
The hotel itself looked like a traditional country house hotel, with dark oak panelled walls etc, we didn't eat in the restaurant itself, but we did order takeaway from it on one evening, which was very nice, and we had breakfast in the hotel on the last morning, which again was very good.
All in all an excellent location. read less
