In Scotland, Cheval Abbey Strand
Apartments at Holyrood were renovated
ready for reopening in June, with new
access to the physic garden – with its
medicinal and culinary plants that would
have grown in the 17th-century garden – in
the grounds of the Palace of
Holyroodhouse. It is exclusive to Cheval
guests in the evening, once the palace is
closed to the public.
Meanwhile Cheval Old Town Chambers
has added an extension, with 24 new
apartments, ground-floor reception, lounge,
bar and restaurant, plus a new entrance on
the Royal Mile (rather than via an alley).

rooms for a reopening in April, while Crerar

The Gathering, features a new Steak &
Lobster Bistro and Red Shed Pizzas.
And last on our tour is The Isle of Mull
Hotel & Spa, which has undergone a £3.5
million makeover of its 75 bedrooms with
six Seaview and two Retreat suites. Its
public areas, restaurant, spa and pool have
been upgraded and a new sea deck
overlooks Craignure Bay. It's dog friendly
too, so perfect for all the lockdown puppies.
With Covid safety
and comfort in mind,
many hotels have been quick

their guests”
People deserve to feel at home -
even when they’re not.
