"It’s the Scottish hotel we return to again and again: sophisticated, totally indulgent and unapologetically fun. Aside from the exceptional interiors and endless country pursuits on tap (archery, clay shooting, fishing, falconry), it’s also home to the most sublime MD, Conor O’Leary, who can arrange lavish picnics by the lake, or served from the back of Gleneagles’ fleet of Defenders, or even a full-blown tasting menu cooked in a dreamy mountainside bothy – all the more enjoyable after a good morning’s hike."
