A VICTORIAN mansion has become one of only two Scottish hotels to get a five star gold rating.
Cromlix, near Dunblane, received VisitScotland’s highest grading from its Quality Assurance scheme.
To achieve this rating a business must excel in all aspects of service and exceed guest expectations.
The 19th Century House, built on the land once owned by James Chisholm, the Bishop of Dunblane, became a hotel in 1981 and was purchased by tennis star Andy Murray in 2013.
Following refurbishment, Murray has transformed the elegant mansion into a luxury 15-bedroom and Gate lodge destination.
Graeme Green, general manager at Cromlix House Hotel, said: “Reinventing the glorious era of grand country house living, we strive to give our guests the very best experience so it’s wonderful to receive this recognition.”
The other country house to achieve a five star rating in Scotland is Inverlochy Castle Hotel in Fort William.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
