Luxury Hotels in Scotland

Fri, 02/24/2012 - 19:05 — Anonymous Often described as Europe's last
great wilderness, Scotland is home to some of the most breathtaking
landscapes and wildlife, and somewhere between the rolling moors and
snow-capped mountains roam the UK's last remaining wild cats! To make the
most of your holiday, it's best to complement these beautiful surroundings
with a stay in a luxury hotel in a land where history and Celtic charm
dominate the landscape. Gleneagles is one such hotel in Scotland. Situated
near the small town of Auchterarder just north of the Ochil Hills the the
Perth and Kinross region it has all the ingredients necessary for the perfect
holiday is Scotland. The hotel has 232 rooms to choose from, a choice of
restaurants and of course one of the biggest attracations, the golf course
designed by Jack Nicklaus which will host the Ryder Cup in 2014. While the
Highlands are rich in outstanding natural beauty, staying here can seem a
little isolated if you prefer the comforts and amenities of modern-day
living. However, you should not compromise on the quality of your hotel.
Dalhousie Castle Hotel and Spa is located just ten miles from Edinburgh, and
yet despite the close proximity to the urban sprawl of the capital, this
thirteenth century castle is still set in acres of wooded parklands, so still
feels in-keeping with the natural beauty that epitomises Scotland. The spa
has a hydro-pool, mud bath facilities and a range of therapeutic and beauty
treatments that will leave you relaxed and rejuvenated. The fine-dining
restaurant serves traditional Scottish dishes in a contemporary manner, so it
never feels stuffy or dated. Moreover, Dalhousie Castle is the recipient of
many coveted awards, including the AA Hotel Group of the Year, so you can
feel secure in it's prominence. However, Edinburgh itself is also home to
many luxury hotels, and while Scotland is unsurpassed at country splendour,
it is also excellent and city chic. One such hotel in Scotland is Tigerlily,
set in the heart of the city centre. This boutique hotel is modern, fresh and
fashionable, a far cry from the wilderness of the Highlands! The bedrooms are
rich in contemporary luxuries, such as pre-loaded ipods, flat screen TV's
and designer toiletries. There is also an award-winning cocktail bar and
restaurant to inject your evenings with modern indulgence, and staying in the
city offers many advantages: some of Scotland's best attractions are a mere
stone's throw away, such as Edinburgh castle, St Mary's Cathedral and the
zoo. Yet whether you are staying in the heart of the city, or the remote
wilds of the countryside, don't yet the hotel ruin your holiday. Go luxury,
and enjoy the best of Scotland.
