About
Dreaming of misty morning walks, tempting treatments and hunkering down beside the crackling log fires of an enchanting Scottish hideaway? Turn your Highlands fantasy into reality with a spa retreat to Murrayshall Country Estate. Nestled in 365 acres of wide-open Perthshire countryside, yet just an hour’s drive from Edinburgh, you can easily lose a weekend wrapped in its dreamy charms.
The former home of Lord Lyndoech, this luxuriously boutique bolthole dates back over 400 years. But although you’ll find history and heritage at every turn, Murrayshall’s 40 rooms and suites are full of chic style and sophisticated design touches - think tartan in elegantly understated tones. Check into a ‘Snug’ room, tuck into the complimentary Scottish shortbread and gaze out on those panoramic Perthshire views.
Just when you thought you couldn’t relax even more, it’s time to be pampered. A short tiptoe down the drive takes you to Murrayshall’s sumptuous gate house spa. There’s no pool, thermal or wet facilities here, just two tempting treatment rooms dedicated to spoiling you with high-end organic Ishga rituals, using natural seaweed products from the Hebrides.
Besides the spa, there are plenty of things to do. Sporty types can play a round on Murrayshall Country Estate’s first-class golf courses, while the hotel can organise everything from yoga and laser clay shooting to kayak tours and salmon fishing. Hire push or e-bikes to explore the enchanted woodlands of the estate, or just head off on foot for a signposted stroll amid the towering trees.
Further afield, Murrayshall Country Estate is just a 10-minute drive from the charming riverside city of Perth, with its palace, museums, shops and racecourse. The hotel is also on the edge of the mediaeval town of Scone, home to the impressive Scone Palace, the former crowning place of Scottish Kings.
But when you’ve finished exploring for the day, award-winning dining at Murrayshall awaits. Settle in for an aperitif by the fire at Barossa, the bar at the heart of the hotel. Eòlas (pronounced Olass), showcases the very best of Perthshire’s larder, while the laidback Cairns offers classic gastropub fare with a twist.

The Spa & Wellness at Murrayshall Country Estate
With its moody mountains, mystic lochs and rugged countryside, the epic Scottish landscape is a natural tonic to those looking to unwind. But the spa at Murrayshall Hotel offers more ways to revive you than just its deeply dramatic location.
Elegantly refurbished and beautifully understated, Murrayshall’s spa is a little piece of pampering heaven. Situated just down the drive from the hotel at the former gatehouse lodge, it offers a selection of top-notch spa treatments designed to beautify, rejuvenate or relax you.
Step inside the warm and welcoming lounge area to sip on a juice or a coffee whilst waiting for your Ishga ritual to begin. These seaweed treatments involve artful applications of vitamin-enriched Scottish seaweed combined with water from a natural spring situated on the beautiful Hebridean Isle of Lewis. But will you choose a deeply hydrating facial or a soothing massage?
The Gym & Fitness at Murrayshall Country Estate
You’ve soothed your soul with a relaxing Ishga treatment at the spa. Now it’s time to nurture the health of your body, and Murrayshall Countryside Estate has everything you need to help you do just that.
Although there’s no gym on-site, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pack your activewear. Not when you can have an exercise bike or treadmill set up in your bedroom, positioned in front of your window so you don’t miss out on that fabulous view.
Prefer sun salutations to cardio? You’re in for a treat. Choose from weekly group yoga classes or try a private session designed to kickstart your day the healthy way. These take place in a glorious room with a great view, and you can bring your own mat or just use one of the hotel’s.
Connecting with the outdoors and getting active in the fresh air feels easy here in the stunning Scottish countryside. Murrayshall Country Estate can organise everything from laser clay shooting and axe throwing to river fishing, kayaking and paddle-boarding. Hire bikes to explore the vast estate, or take part in guided walks that go off the beaten track and uncover some hidden treasures.
(Activities are chargeable, subject to availability and with advanced booking required).
