As the days grow a bit shorter and the nights begin to draw in, autumn paints the Scottish landscape in warming tones of gold, orange and red. At Crieff Hydro Family of Hotels, we believe there is no better time to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse yourself in the breathtaking scenery.
From the majestic mountains of Glencoe and the Scottish Highlands, to the serenity of Perthshire and the charm of the Scottish Borders, our hotels are nestled amongst some of Scotland's most stunning scenery. Autumn is a time to slow down, reflect and appreciate the simple pleasures in life. Whether you're enjoying a leisurely walk along the River Tweed in Peebles, or indulging in a relaxation session in Crieff Hydro's Victorian Baths, there is something truly special in embracing the season.
How will you spend your getaway? Exploring the paths and trails around our hotels, tucking into some of the finest local ingredients in our dishes, truly taking the time to relax and rest, or heading out on your next adrenaline-pumping adventure. We've got something for everyone.
Discover 1881 Distillery
With every autumn stay, we're including a complimentary 20cl bottle of 1881 Gin from our very own distillery, based in Peebles Hydro Hotel in the Scottish Borders. Our award-winning gins can be enjoyed across all of our bars and restaurants in the Family of Hotels, whether you enjoy a London Dry, or something more fruity - there is a gin for every tastebud.
Did you know 1881 Distillery is home to the UK's largest domestic gin school? Join us on the ultimate Gin Distiller Experience, an immersive three-hour masterclass in the captivating setting of our distillery at Peebles Hydro Hotel. We'll welcome you with an 1881 G&T before we dive into the history of the hotel and gin itself. Then, you'll take to your mini-still to craft your own gin recipe using our wide range of botanicals, and whilst its distilling, we'll take you on a tour of our distillery. Finally, you'll get creative by designing your own bottle label, and you'll have a 70cl bottle of gin to take home - delicious.
If you're short on time, our distillery team also offer shorter tours and tastings, for you to capture the essence of gin-making - even with a busy schedule.
