Gleneagles

Incredible place to stay for a long weekend, will definitely be returning

The hotel was very good. A large hotel with a few bars and restaurants. If you have lots of money you could have a great time.

It was first class all the way . The problem was as I highlighted before I left our reservation mentioned 3 nights in the body of it when we were booked and paid for 4 nights . This caused much confusion

Excellent hotel. Best golf resort I’ve stayed at

Amazing probably the best hotel I have ever stayed in. Its a must....

Rarely have we stayed somewhere with such a wonderful welcome and such super hospitality throughout. Nothing was too much trouble, the children were so well catered for. The activities we took part in were brilliant, so well run. The restaurants and spa were also fabulous, we would love to return soon!

I felt this year wasn't as good as 2 years ago when we went. Prices have increased dramatically, the breakfast isn't now a USP of Glen Eagles it was average, The bedroom was good though the ventilation supplied too much cold fresh air into the room which we felt at night. The courses were excellent as usual and staff were kind and helpful as also, couldn't get a seat in the club house after playing golf too. Hope this helps. Steve Farrell

The Hotel is a fabulous, high quality, luxury hotel. It was an absolute pleasure to stay here. Staff were friendly, professional,but not over bearing. I can not recommend the hotel highly enough.

Sensational experience, albeit a little overpriced in places

The Gleneagles package is pretty special. We had a manor room which was large and very comfortable. Friendly staff. Surprised to see that one of the bar / restaurants was closed due to lack of staff but still lots of choice for food and drink. One disappointing meal in the dormy house otherwise food incl portion size was good. We played the Wee course as a warmup on day 1 and wouldn’t recommend it - £37.50 per person for 9 holes was poor value. Also played the Centenary course and Queens course. Both excellent although unfortunately we had severe (wet) weather for our round in the Centenary course and although we managed 18 holes the course was almost unplayable with standing water on greens and fairways. Overall we really enjoyed our trip and although it’s very expensive Gleneagles does deliver.

Really can't describe the experience if you haven't stayed at Gleneagles you haven't experienced the best hotel in the world!

Staff are excellent. Very helpful and creating a relaxed environment to enjoy yourselves.

A beautiful hotel with very attentive staff. Excellent service all round. We can very highly recommend the Andrew Fairlie restaurant. A fantastic dining experience and well worth the price.

We visited during Covid restrictions which curtailed the hotel operations to minimise contamination risk. For example breakfast options were served at the table rather than personal choice from a buffet and restricted menu choice. Not cheap but then that is the Gleneagles experience, sadly curtailed by Covid. However do not be put off the hotel has a lot to offer and would like to visit again in "normaltimes"

I just wished we could have stayed here for a week and not 2 nights. Everything was just superb. Without doubt this for both my wife and I was the most fantastic place we have ever stayed. The staff were so friendly, helpful and professional and the facilities outstanding. The setting just idyllic.

Stunning venue of course, but what stood out even more were the staff. You kind of expect 5*.....ALL staff we met - hotel ,golf, leisure centre, restaurants, bars....were above that!

Perfect

All fabulous loved the hotel the experience was fantastic.

Many thanks for organising our golf trip to Gleneagles. The weather conditions on the day were extremely mixed, resulting in us being given a voucher to play the course on another date. The facilities within the Clubhouse (The Dormy House) are first class, however we do feel their tariff for food and beverages are a bit on the high side.

Our suite in the hotel was simply fabulous, our dining experience at the Strathearn Restaurant was superb and overall we were made extremely welcome by the hotel. We would recommend Gleneagles to all age groups as a top quality sporting venue. We will go back and would have to give the overall experience a 10 out of 10 rating.

YGT handled our booking very efficiently and I would definitely recommend you guys to friends.

I would like to thank yourgolftravel.com very much for arranging our recent trip to Gleneagles for my husband’s 60th birthday. We had the most wonderful time and everything about the holiday was simply fantastic.

The hotel was excellent and the staff couldn't do enough for you. Thank you also for kindly arranging an upgraded room; it was beautiful. The food was also delicious and the golf was superb.

We hired bikes while we were there and the spa and leisure club were the best I have ever been to. We will definitely book through your company again....and probably go back to Gleneagles!

There is one word I would use to describe the Gleneagles experience, and that word is 'sumptuous'.

From the moment of arrival, and a friendly welcome from Ian, resplendent in kilt and tweed jacket at the front door, to Joe the porter who immediately took charge of our luggage, to the concierge, "can I park your car for you, sir?", the warmth and friendliness completely enveloped us. 

We were lucky to be placed in a corner room, which gave a view of the rolling Perthshire hills on one side and the tennis courts on the other. Luxurious comfort awaited us in this lovely room, and the quiet and stillness of the place ensured undisturbed sleep. 

The 18 holes on the Queen's Course the next day proved challenging for me, a relatively novice golfer, but the splendour of the views around us more than made up for the average quality of our golf! We were even lucky enough to have a couple of deer run across in front of us at one point. The whole golf experience is extremely well organised, and the Dormy Clubhouse was alive and buzzing with Ryder Cup fever. 

Back at the Hotel there were many other delights waiting to be explored. The Spa is the last word in luxury and comfort, and in the evening, the food and service in the Strathearn Restaurant rounded off an incredible experience. 

We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have tasted the experience of two days with golf at Gleneagles Hotel. We are going to be working as Marshalls during the Ryder Cup, and we now know the experience which awaits the teams of golfers. Lucky boys!

I would like to say a huge thank you to Your Golf Travel for helping to organise our golf trip to Gleneagles.

Everything was 1st class from the initial point of booking, to the hotel, golf courses, the 19th hole and even the weather! I would recommend Gleneagles and Your Golf Travel to anyone. 

The hotel was amazing and probably the best I’ve stayed in. Breakfast was brilliant and we had dinner in one of the restaurants at the hotel which was also very good. 

The members of staff at Gleneagles couldn’t do enough for us whilst we were there.  

Once again, many thanks to you and your team.

We are just back from a truly magnificent golf trip to Gleneagles. The hotel, staff and golf courses were all amazing. The experience was one we will truly remember for a long time to come so thanks to YGT for organising a memorable 10th wedding anniversary trip. 

We played the Queens Course which was fantastic. Unfortunately there was lots of rain so the PGA Centenary Course was pretty wet to play.

The clubhouse was beautiful with a fantastic atmosphere and decently priced fare.

Hotel prices were steep but considering the 5* rating, it was worth every penny - a real trip back to how hotel service used to be. 11/10 all day long.

What a fabulous trip to Gleneagles - probably the best hotel I have ever stayed in. I isn’t cheap but definitely a very, very special 5* luxury treat. The Scottish breakfast is a magnificent meal from a bye gone era - we only needed a bar snack in the new Dormy House at the end of the round before retiring to the Spa such was the quality of the breakfast.

The two long established courses – King's and Queen's – are really enjoyable with beautiful scenery, plenty of wildlife. Every hole is great fun and they aren’t overly long which adds to the appeal for the average golfer. The challenge simply comes from just clever design. Both courses make for a great warm up for the PGA Centenary Course which is a must for any golfer with a handicap of 18 or under.

I for one cannot wait to revisit and overall I’d have to give the break 10/10 and would be very happy to recommend YGT for their excellent service.

We have just arrived back home after a memorable time in Scotland culminating in the visit to Gleneagles.

Let’s do golf first. Heather played the Kings on the first afternoon with just a caddie but there was an enormous society and the round was slow so she stopped at the 14th  as we would have missed dinner. On day 2 she played the Queens with two other golfers and a very good caddie. She had a great round and thoroughly enjoyed it.

My fishing was superb both at Breco and then on the Gleneagles lake dry fly fishing for brownies; a great honour for me. The ghillies were very friendly and I was even allowed to take Archie to the lake.

Gleneagles hotel is an experience in itself; magnificent service in every department, two great restaurants with food that above all was flavoursome and enjoyable. The room in Braid was perfect, especially with the patio to let Archie out and then to walk him. We could go on and on about the quality of this hotel forever.

So we will sign off with wonderful memories of Gleneagles made possible by your service which was of the highest quality.

Thank you for arranging our golf break to Gleneagles; it really was special. I was a bit dubious before arriving at the hotel that you had actually managed to get us booked in. I had made several attempts to make a booking but was told there were no vacancies. I was recommended your website by my son-in-law and following the great service we received we will recommend it to friends and family.

The booking had been made as a birthday celebration for my husband’s 60th birthday. On checking in he was immediately wished 'happy birthday'; a little personal touch which spoke volumes for their attention to detail. Not only did this happen on three separate occasions throughout our stay, but the hotel also delivered a small gift for him to our room with a hand written gift card, making our stay very special indeed.

After spending a restful evening we enjoyed our breakfast which offered a large variety of choice, to be eaten while enjoying stunning views out over the grounds to the distant hills. Suitably fuelled up my husband took on the challenge of the Kings Course.  

From standing on the first tee he was anticipating a very enjoyable round of golf. The course was a challenge and very well maintained. The greens were faster than what he was used to with a lot of blind shots and a few words of encouragement from a green keeper, pointing out how to play the twelfth hole, was greatly appreciated.

It was a beautiful day to play golf and I'm sure he would like to try the challenge of the other two courses. I know I wouldn't object to staying at the hotel again! We recently stayed at another well known 5* hotel in London but I'm afraid it was way behind the standard of Gleneagles.

Our visit to Gleneagles was everything we hoped it would be and more – apart from the damp weather that is but this was Scotland in April and not Spain in August!

The golfers still played though and absolutely loved the 2 courses. It was such a lovely touch to come off the 18th wet and have the golf clubs taken away to be cleaned, dried, stored and ready for the next day’s play.

The spa was such a lovely experience too and the massage for the ladies was blissful. What can you say about Gleneagles hotel that hasn't been said before; unpretentious luxury, superb staff and service and the best breakfast you’ll find anywhere anywhere.

Our only disappointment was in the mix up over our rooms in that we weren't allocated Sovereign rooms. However when this was realised during our checkout the hotel gave me a part reimbursement against my 4 room booking. Again...top class service.

We had a great time at Gleneagles. We arrived a little early as we were playing in the afternoon but it was not a problem and our luggage was ready and waiting in our room after our round. Top class service from the off!

We played the Kings course which was simply stunning, our tee times were prompt and the pace of play good. The clubhouse and shop were of very high standard too; as you would expect.

Our room overlooked the gardens, and was very well appointed.

We ate in the Mediterranean style restaurant which was a real spectacle of food, and breakfast was very traditional and tasty.

We’d recommend Gleneagles to anyone and would recommend yourgolftravel’s service too, as it was very easy to book and all requests were satisfied efficiently.

Our Gleneagles Golf Break was excellent. Our hotel room was stunning, overlooking the driveway to the resort, the gardens and the croquet lawn; a truly beautiful setting. We enjoyed a lovely lunch in the Dormy before I set off for 18 holes on the Kings and my partner went to the spa. When we met again later, my partner was delighted with the spa treatments and she couldn’t talk highly enough of all the staff and the condition of the spa.

The golf course was in excellent condition; however the greens had been heavily sanded which made them play quite a bit slower than normal (have played the Kings a few times), and introduced the odd bobble to the greens. Highly unusual as Gleneagles greens on all courses are normally pristine.

We decided to dine out at a small restaurant we know in Dunblane that evening. However, breakfast the next day was fantastic. We probably overdid it a bit!

After a walk around the grounds and down to see the gun dogs, we checked out and received a complimentary box of shortbread “for the journey”. As we were leaving my partner declared that she “absolutely loved the place”. A result as this means I can disguise these golf breaks as “romantic breaks” going forward!

Bizarre front nine experience when we were nearly hit by golf balls on five separate occasions from adjacent holes. As anticipated a difficult course befitting a Ryder Cup venue. Lacked the charm of the other Gleneagles courses, but a good test of golf with many interesting and challenging holes.One disadvantage was some substantial walks between greens and tees.

Course in excellent condition, pace of play was good and we enjoyed our round in the beautiful scenery. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Yet another top quality course. Toughest course out of the 3 courses at Gleneagles but still very enjoyable. (Very strong winds on the day)

Another great course and in good condition considering the time of the year. Only downside for the day was the 1hr delay because of fog/mist. Even with the delay it didn’t stop my group enjoying the course.

Great experience of a championship course with exceptional facilities

Course was decent. Tee boxes not amazing but greens were still good. Yardage book at the start was a nice touch. Also has driving range straight opposite, so easy to warm up. Food and drink is not exactly value for money but is ok for the whole experience

As with the King’s course, fantastic place. A bit less difficult than King’s but still quite challenging. We recommend caddies for King’s and Queen’s.

Also beautiful. Caddies Jim and Euan were great. Too bad the weather wasn’t wonderful the whole round!

A beautiful course well worth it.

Perfect I definitely recommend getting a golf buggy for the round fantastic greens and fairways Very friendly staff all round a perfect day playing the Gleneagles was an excellent experience the scenery is amazing

Booked this for my husband as a Christmas present. He thoroughly enjoyed all 3 courses but liked this one. I drove around the course in a buggy and found it very enjoyable, beautiful course and very well kept. My husband very much enjoyed his golfing at Gleneagles, would highly recommend.

Booked for my husband as a Christmas present. He enjoyed this course a lot, more so than the Kings.

Booked for my husband as a Christmas present. He thoroughly enjoyed the course. Was a little slow due to other golfers in front as a late tee time due to arriving that morning but that was not due to the course.

Golf doesn't get better than a round on the kings !

Course was in pretty good condition for the time of year especially the tee boxes and fairways. Practice facilities were very good and the complimentary bucket of balls was a nice surprise.

First time playing the queens course slightly easier than the kings but will be back

First time playing the kings course will be back at some point

Even tougher than the Queen's Course....longer, narrow and elevated. Not for beginner golfers. Course conditions are perfect.....immaculate. We also played The PGA Course...loved it.....would suggest it for most golfers.....more open, less blind shots, challenging but doable.

A stunning, tough and unforgiving course. Lovely layout, huge elevations, immaculate condition, good pace of play, good customer service and gorgeous clubhouse. A fun course but the rough is tough!

A great course in great condition.

The best course we have ever played in uk, really challenging and fantasic experience throughout. Very memorable playing there with superb views across the course.

Fantasic course and excellent experience

A very enjoyable round on a well designed course. We hired a buggy as there are some long walks between the tee and green. The staff were really helpful.

Had a great time course was in perfect condition.....

Great course and wonderful experience. Bunkers particularly hard due to conditions.

Loved the whole experience… unfortunately, 20 mph plus wind made it more difficult , however, loved the course design, layout and views.

Super course but difficult the greens were like glass

A dream come true to eventually play the course after going to the Ryder Cup & Solheim Cup

Cracking course good build up for the PGA

This was on my bucket list to play it was a privilege to play the starter on the course couldn't be more helpful as I am disabled as it was very busy he managed to get us of early do we had a bit more time but what a course words cannot describe pristine condition nice halfway house I hope again to play one day fingers crossed if you can do try and play you won't regret it

Same as the Queens

It had rained a lot so they did the best they could to keep it open.

A brilliantly designed course, wonderful scenery, impeccable condition. You have to think about every shot, no shot is a gimmee. Even when you get to the greens they are quick, huge and sloped. It will test every aspect of your game but if you don't come off smiling then you are playing the wrong sport. Pace is slow but that is the nature of courses full of 4 balls who want to eek out every shot, every moment. Accept the pace, adapt and enjoy. My favourite course to play, it has everything you could want as a golfer.

A beautiful course, in excellent condition, a wonderful test. The course is full of 4 balls, who never pick up!, so rounds are not quick but when the scenery is this nice it is not a big issue. Accept it will be slow and just enjoy. The course is shorter than the Kings but it does not make it easy. Recommended

A beautiful course

The only downside was that it had rained hard for a couple of days so it was very soggy

Top course makes you think about your next shot, could play over and over.

Maybe too many blind shots & bunkers, but I'm being far too picky!

Simply beautiful course. Stunning backdrop. Varied holes. Wonderful design. Clubhouse is superb as is the practice area.

Wider and more forgiving than the Kings and Queens. Great to play this Ryder Cup course. Condition excellent considering it's the "new" course. Greens very good. Starters on all 3 courses very helpful.

As with the Queens a tough course unless you keep it straight. Beautful layout with a number of blind shots on an interesting course. Really enjoyed it. Great greens.

Beautiful course. Tough rough, lots of bunkers. Keep it straight and you give yourself a chance but some greens difficult to read. For the ladies some of the tee shots have a long carry to clear off the tee. Greens excellent.

Probably our least favourite although the weather was superb. A longer course, more American in design with some longish walks between holes. A buggy perhaps should be taken. Challenging golf especially if recovering from eating at the Andrew Fairlie restaurant!

Completely different to the Queens Course. More broken ground and some difficult holes with quite a few surprises - read the course guide before taking the shot.

A great course to start on. Challenging holes but not too long. Beautifully laid out with some spectacular holes.

I loved the golf course, but as I was playing on my own the round was very slow as I was waiting over every shot! I thought I might have been put in a group with someone else. The weather was poor on the day also which didn’t help ( it was wet the whole round ) And I have previously mentioned about the changing facilities being closed, this was a huge letdown and inconvenience, as I was soaked through with no where to get changed afterwards, and had to drive home wet and cold.

Had a brilliant day on the king’s course and the weather was lovely which helps. I found the course pretty tough as it being my first time, there were a lot of blind shots which were challenging! The greens were as good as it gets.

The shortest course on the complex but great to play. Many holes require good shot selection and course management. A very wet round so not many on the course (only saw 3 groups) so no problems with speed of play. Plenty of wildlife (wild deer, game birds) roaming the course. Walking only no buggies, why? Play the course and find out, some great holes. Greens in great shape and on par with the PGA course,and personally a more enjoyable course. To conclude would love to play the Kings, looks the best of the three courses on offer but that is only my view. Finally thanks to Your Golf Travel who offer a first class service in organising the trip.

For long hitters not many areas where you are in serious trouble. Otherwise not difficult to manage a good score. However greens were fast with subtle burrows so choice of line to hole vital.

An absolute gem of a course and certainly one of the best about and the star of the 3 courses. Easy walking between holes, every hole a different challenge and the bunkering was amazing. The condition was 5 star, greens, tees and bunkers. A great halfway house. Could play this course everyday.

A great day on a very good course. Long walks between holes, so a buggy favourable.

Very enjoyable - course has survived the winter rain - just!

Excellent day of golf. We knew the greens had been heavily prepared, so they were tough to play on, but thats mid-March golf everywhere.

The starter on both courses very helpful and knowledgeable made us feel at ease. Halfway house excellent have never had such good bacon sandwiches!! Scenery lovely course very pretty in amongst the fir trees.

The greens were very fast difficult to read and gauge the pace but as expected on a premier course.
