£800,000 Upgrade For Perthshire’s Crieff Hydro

Dr Meikle first opened the doors to his hydropathic spa in Perthshire in 1868 and nearly 150 years later Crieff Hydro is still very much in the family - run by his great-great-great grandnephew Stephen Leckie. It’s now Scotland’s premier spa resort and part of a family of 10 properties spread across Scotland and the north of England ranging from 21 to 215 rooms. Still very much the flagship, Crieff Hydro offers guests a choice of hotel or self-catering accommodation and is just coming to the end of an £800,000 revamp of its self-catering facilities.

 

 

Self-catering accommodation at the Perthshire resort ranges from luxury apartments and cottages for two, to lodges and family-sized homes sleeping 14 people. The refurbishment, which began in January 2017, has seen a spend of up to £60,000 per unit, including full kitchen and bathroom refits, new décor and furniture, and replacements to kitchenware and utensils.

 

 

All 50 self-catering units are dotted around the estate, which boasts a riding stable, an Action Glen activity centre, a swimming pool, water sports, a ‘tween' zone, supervised childcare at Big Country, an in-house cinema and six eating outlets. Alongside the property revamp, Crieff Hydro has launched a new app which gives guests the opportunity to rebook, receive flash sale notifications and to use as a point of reference when navigating around the 900-acre estate. "Continuous investment and improvement of services are part of our ethos at Crieff Hydro,” says Stephen Leckie, CEO of Crieff Hydro. “Over the past several years we have pumped £40 million into our flagship resort here in Highland Perthshire, ensuring that we remain one of the top choices for families, couples and groups in the U.K."

A great place as it was, so looking forward to the refurbishment. Perfect place to take the kids with tasteful things for the adults.
