When Scottish tennis superstar Andy Murray acquired Cromlix, close to his hometown of Dunblane, it signalled not only a return to his roots but the chance to reinvent the glorious era of grand country house living. Each of the 10 bedrooms, 5 suites and one-bedroom gate lodge has their own individual design and character. Light spills into the rooms, which are all subtly decorated and enjoy splendid views over the manicured grounds or tennis courts and surrounding countryside.

The hotel boasts a Chez Roux restaurant, offering menus that focus on using seasonal locally sourced produce wherever possible.

Elegantly re-designed to showcase much of the house’s original heritage, Cromlix has been furnished with specially-sourced Scottish antique furniture. The suites, most of which feature hand-painted freestanding baths in gold, silver and copper, have all been named by Andy in recognition of other famous Scots !
