Heading north and worthy of a mention is Gleneagles, the quite superb five star hotel nestling in the Perthshire hills with its golf courses being some of the most, if not the most scenic in the country. (See Photo in Accommodation Section). Gleneagles, although not a location used for the British Open, has recently shot up the popularity stakes with our golfing guests having been named as the venue for the Ryder Cup in 2014.
