Highlights
A Majestic Castle Retreat with Modern Luxury
Breathtaking Location in the Scottish Highlands
Intimate and Secluded with Easy Access to Pitlochry
Overlooking tranquil Loch Faskally opposite the small Perthshire town of Pitlochry, Fonab Castle is a stunning hotel that provides a fairytale castle experience. Equally wonderful for couples seeking romance as well as families in search of a home away from home setting, Fonab Castle has been decorated to the highest standards. It possesses a wonderfully laid back and inviting feel with its roaring fireplaces, rich fabrics such as tartan and tweed, and fine antiques.
The inspiration for the individually designed bedrooms comes from the romance and colour of the surrounding Perthshire Highland, sympathetically blending a contemporary style with the original room features. Elegant en-suite bathrooms have a spacious walk-in power shower, bathrobes, slippers and Thierry Mugler toiletries, while luxury Egyptian cotton sheets, a flat-screen smart TV and entertainment system, Nespresso coffee maker, fresh fruit and mineral water are also included. Some rooms offer views of the Loch Faskally or of the stunning Highland scenery.
There are two excellent restaurants: the Fonab Brassiere for lighter meals and the Sandeman Fine Dining restaurant offering superb Scottish fine dining. On warmer days you can dine al fresco on the terrace overlooking the loch – an extremely romantic experience – and the cellars and bar offer one of the widest selections of wine and malt whisky in Scotland.
For those who would prefer simply to relax, the Woodland Spa and drawing rooms of the castle offer a perfect retreat. Immerse yourself in the thermal suite with steam room, sauna and aromatherapy, or while away the hours in the 15 metre pool or spa pool. Golfers are also well catered to with the option, subject to handicap and tee times, of playing the nearby world-famous Gleneagles course.
Keen historians can explore Blair Castle, Scone Palace and the remarkable Crannog Centre on Loch Tay, and there is a welter of charming Perthshire towns and villages to discover, not to mention some superb whisky distilleries. For lovers of the outdoors, this corner of Perthshire is simply heaven, with walking, trekking, cycling, canyoning, white water rafting, highland safaris and world- class fishing on the River Tay just a few of the wide range of pursuits locally available.
