About Crieff Hydro
Set in 900 acres of parkland at the ‘Gateway to the Highlands’ in Scotland, Crieff Hydro was a Victorian Spa opened way back in 1868. Originally called the Strathearn Hydropathic Establishment Company and overseen by the physician Thomas H Miekle the Victorians came to experience the bracing ice cold waters. Now managed by the fifth generation of the Miekle family and having undergone serious investment, including heating the spa the complex truly offers something for everyone. The complex is predominantly family friendly, there is even room for the dog but there are also adult only escape areas. Crieff Hydro offers a range of rooms from the very comfortable and attractive Standard to the luxurious Leigh Signature rooms all of which feature double beds and can be booked on a bed and breakfast basis or full board. For families there are family rooms with a double and a single bed or family suites and studios which can accommodate up to six people. In addition to the hotel there is self-catering accommodation with a choice of one to three bedroomed cottages (sleeping up to 8) or two bedroomed chalets with an additional sofa bed so they can accommodate up to six. The hotel is open all year round with special holiday activities and experiences over Christmas and Hogmany.Why choose Crieff Hydro?
