The Location
Gleneagles Windsor Glen Apartment is situated in Windsor Gardens – a small development in private grounds adjacent to the world famous Gleneagles Hotel and Golf resort. Gleneagles is poised on the edge of the Highlands, just outside Auchterarder. The resort destination of Gleneagles is known as the “Gateway to Northern Scotland”. Lying an hour north of Edinburgh, it is where the lowland plains meet the Scottish Highlands and is best known for its luxury hotel and world class golf courses.
Gleneagles Hotel
Gleneagles Hotel, the “Palace in the Glens”, continues as one of the top luxury hotels in the world with a restored elegant interior and sumptuous public areas and guest rooms. The hotel has achieved the AA Five Red Stars, the ultimate accolade, every year since 1986 along with many other top awards in the hotel and leisure industry. One of the four restaurants holds the coveted two Michelin Stars. The Gleneagles railway station which serves the area is on the railway line which runs between Perth and Stirling.
Things to Do in Gleneagles
The 850-acre Gleneagles estate is a traditional base for enjoying golf, grouse shooting, fishing, falconry, horse riding, off-road driving and other Highlands pursuits. Gleneagles Hotel offers excellent golfing at its three championship courses: the Centenary Course, the King’s Course and the Queen’s Course.
Close to the Gleneagles Estate is a 250-acre reservoir famous for its fly fishing for trout at the Frandy Fishery. The Ochil Hills are well known for their hill walking opportunities with beautiful scenery and plenty of wildlife. “Munro Baggers” are hill walkers who ascend the 538 listed Munros, which are Scottish mountains over 3,000 feet in height. The first Munro Tables were produced in 1891 by Sir Hugh Munro.
Attractions – Places to visit, things to do
Hospitality is the heart of the Gleneagles experience. Four restaurants set the highest culinary standards, including Scotland’s only two Michelin stars in Andrew Fairlie at Gleneagles. Elegant bars and public spaces encourage intimate conversation and quiet contemplation.
