Beautifully renovated main dining area and bar. Lovely food and drink. Unfortunately seemed a bit short-staffed the evening we dined and service was quite slow. Ran out of orange juice both mornings for breakfast. Room comfortable and spacious-quirks included non-functional telephone and safe. Would return and recommend to others. Perhaps just a bit more attention to detail (dead plants in hanging basket outside lodge rooms) for a 5-star rating.

The accommodation was really good, the room was clean and tidy and the bathroom was excellent. It was well porpotioned and appointed. The property fails however in their culinary offerings. We asked about the tasting menu but advised that we happy if this was not available. The staff advised that the tasting menu could be done however we would have to have canapes at 6:45pm - not sure why as the restaurant was not busy. The canapes came and were the size of a main meal and it only went downhill from there. As a tasting menu it was not as expected. There was no hint of refinement. There was no offering or pairing of wines. Quite frankly the meal was subpar. Clearing the price tag was for the amount of food rather than the sophitication. On the other side of the coin, breakfast was ok. The staff were extremely nice, and friendly.

Wonderful 2-night stay. Couldn't have asked for a better place to spend a couple nights in the Scottish winter. Attention to detail throughout. Excellent food too.

Brilliant boutique hotel along from Gleneagles
Superb boutique hotel. Very comfortable, excellent food in restaurant and great bar. Our room and bathroom were tastefully presented. Staff uniformly excellent and young bar man very much passionate about his cocktails and whiskies. Great start to our trip heading for NC500 and great central location to discover Perthshire. Would happily go back again.

Amazing
The food was first class and the staff were exceptional. Slight problem with the booking, wherby a signature double was booked and paid for, but a classic double was presented. The hotel made a local adjustment which was fine

Do yourself a favour and book now!
Lovely hotel with beautiful decor. Rooms very nice and food was first class. What made the visit most enjoyable though were the hotel staff. From Aileen on reception to the Manager (Lasse?) to the barman and waiting staff, they could not have been more friendly or attentive. This will ensure our return will be sooner rather than later.

The Cairn Lodge was excellent from start to finish. Food was first class both dinner and breakfast. Plenty of choice and very fresh. There was a comfortable lounge bar to relax in. Very clean in all areas. It will be our first choice the next time we visit this area. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Cairn Lodge is quite exceptional
Our stay at Cairn Lodge was absolutely superb in every respect. The quality of service and hospitality was quite exceptional and reflected a true five-star establishment. The genuine friendliness and caring attitude that we experienced from all levels of management and staff was second to none. The Garden Restaurant delivered food of the highest standard via a very well balanced menu underpinned by an extensive wine list that catered for every palate and budget. We are already booked to return with our family!
