Kinnaird House was previously run as a top end hotel between 1990 and
2009 and was a member of Relais & Chateau. It has subsequently functioned
as a lovely guest house, one of the first in Highland Perthshire that can be
reached on the route north to the Highlands. It has the advantage of being
able to offer the guest something completely different with its unrivalled
setting that is so convenient.
It is however very adaptable. The current commercial business could be built
upon and improved or it could easily revert to a lovely family home.
Kinnaird House is a welcoming country house of great comfort. It is different
from most Scottish lodges as there are no rambling passages and draughty
baronial rooms. The accommodation is well laid out with generous and
well-proportioned rooms. There is no wasted space and the house feels
comfortable, not huge. The reception rooms are delightful and have played
host to some wonderful parties over the years. The drawing room has cedar
panelling, an open fire and leads onto a billiard room overlooking the Tay
valley. It is reputed that it was around this particular table that the game
“Freda” was invented! The long hall connects the reception rooms and there
are two elegant dining rooms. Also of note is the panelled dining room,
with its beautiful painted arabesques believed to date from 1860. The
arabesques are listed as historical. A smaller commercial kitchen sits to one
side and would be an obvious place to create a family kitchen with close
access onto the lawn.
