Tranquil Setting

The hotel is in a beautiful tranquil setting, with well tended gardens to wander through. Staff were friendly and efficient. We were delighted to see the return of the buffet breakfast, which was well presented and delicious. Some aspects of the hotel are in need of a little refreshment, but overall, we had a very enjoyable stay and we will certainly return.

Beautiful country getaway!

Lovely property, excellent service, and marvelous food. The bartender said he didn’t really know cocktails which was a bit surprising and a tad disappointing. Would have loved to go stalking but discovered we had to reserve that in advance. Will know next time.

May wife and stayed for one night with our two dogs and had a fabulous break at Ballathie House. From the welcome on arrival, the room, dinner was outstanding and the location superb. A quality hotel offer a true Scottish experience. We are planning to return and this time I will have my fly rod with me. Thanks to the team at Ballathie.

A wonderful experience in a beautiful location

The Hotel is an old manor house with a number of out building locations on the bank of the river Tay. The staff were extremely friendly and efficient, the food excellent. Some of the rooms were a little tired but now under new ownership there is an extensive refurbishment programme underway. The location with it's riverside walks is stunning. It is also greatly enhanced by the gardens surrounding the main house. My wife (an enthusiastic gardener) had some wonderful discussions with the gardener, Gordon who has been responsible for the design and planting of the beds over the last 9 years. HE is a great asset to the hotel, very skillful and extremely helpful when discussing plants. I don't think we can praise the hotel sufficiently. it offers excellent value for money and is an ideal base to explore the beautiful Perthshire countryside.

Very Comfortable

The room was very comfortable with a fine view of the gardens and the mighty River Tay. The staff were friendly and efficient. We have stayed here many times over the years and continue to return, which is a good sign. However I was quite surprised that there is no longer a breakfast buffet, which used to be one of the highlights of our stay.

The restaurant and the staff in the country house, were very good, but Hotels.com was, I think, deceptive about the accomodations. Pictures on Hotels.com all showed the impressive looking country house building, but what we actually slept in, was the "Sportsman's Lodge", which was actually, one of many small cabins on the estate; like in Butlins or Hi-de-Hi minus the knobbly knees contests, etc. The "Sportsman's Lodge" cabins were adequate, but pretty basic, and were a disappointment, thinking we were going to stay in the country house.
