Just 14 bedrooms give this lodge close to Gleneagles, an exclusive and intimate feel. The baronial building has a modern twist, with plush textiles, rich amber hues and statement lighting. High-end self-catering accommodation is also available. But for those not wishing to cook, there’s the Garden Room restaurant, serving afternoon teas, Sunday roasts and a la carte meals. And if you’re planning a special occasion, you can devise a bespoke menu with the executive chef, for your group’s private enjoyment. Take a seat in a brown leather upholstered chair mid-morning for a coffee and the day’s papers, or after dinner, to enjoy a sophisticated tipple.
