10/10 Exceptional

A very friendly stay, with the staff excelling in making their guests feel welcome. The food was excellent and the bar service was the same. Couldn't fault anything and I'd definitely choose to stay here rather than the 'big name' hotel which is only one mile away.

Wedding Anniversary night in Scotland.

My husband and I stayed overnight after a 330 mile drive on our way to Peterhead. A beautiful building in a very nice location. Ate at the restaurant where the food was excellent.

Cairn Lodge is quite exceptional

Our stay at Cairn Lodge was absolutely superb in every respect. The quality of service and hospitality was quite exceptional and reflected a true five-star establishment. The genuine friendliness and caring attitude that we experienced from all levels of management and staff was second to none. The Garden Restaurant delivered food of the highest standard via a very well balanced menu underpinned by an extensive wine list that catered for every palate and budget. We are already booked to return with our family!
Kenneth, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautifully renovated main dining area and bar. Lovely food and drink. Unfortunately seemed a bit short-staffed the evening we dined and service was quite slow. Ran out of orange juice both mornings for breakfast. Room comfortable and spacious-quirks included non-functional telephone and safe. Would return and recommend to others. Perhaps just a bit more attention to detail (dead plants in hanging basket outside lodge rooms) for a 5-star rating.

Superb experience

Excellent experience, staff are super attentive, friendly and helpful. Room was beautiful, food in their restaurant fantastic. If you dont have a car though be sure to request taxi numbers ahead of time, there is no other transport from the Gleneagles train station.

Très bel établissement, mais beaucoup trop cher pour sa catégorie.
MICHEL, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Have used hotel previously and staff are great, very accommodating. Only thing would be breakfast at an earlier time maybe 7.30 instead of 8, Al & Trip-A state 7am but not correct. The staff did advise if we ask them ahead of time they’d accommodate the 7am start though. Clean & roomy rooms with great bathroom area. Definitely use again.

After some initial confusion over the standard of room allocated being different to that which we had reserved, all resolved very easily, we had a great one night stay at Cairn Lodge on our way to the Western Isles. The food and service both at dinner and for breakfast were superb and I can highly recommend a stay at Cairn Lodge

Lovely hotel with very friendly and efficient staff. A little tired around the edges but the staff make up for that. Food is excellent; dinner and breakfast menus are very good. Conservatory area is lovely with nice outlook. Excellent place for a short break.
