We have been returning guests at Ballathie House Hotel for nearly 19 years, and it continues to exceed our expectations every single time. From the moment you arrive, the team create a truly memorable experience, with attention to detail that never slips. The estate is absolutely stunning, surrounded by beautiful countryside and rich wildlife, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. A very special thank you to Mr.Jalal, who has looked after us so exceptionally well over the years – you are truly the heart and host of Ballathie. A warm welcome also to Jason, an excellent sommelier who is already a fantastic addition to the team, and we hope to see you here for many years to come. The food was outstanding once again – consistently excellent, beautifully prepared, and simply faultless. Ballathie remains one of our favourite places to stay, and we always look forward to our next visit.

Just returned from a two night autumn break at Ballathie House Hotel. It was a great deal as it included afternoon tea one day and dinner the next night so great value for money. The hotel was comfortable and beautifully situated in the Perthshire countryside and we woke up to see deer and squirrels in front of our room- an added bonus The staff were all delightful. Very helpful with a good sense of humour. They all made our stay a bit special. Our classic double room was very spacious and really quiet so contributed to a restful night’s sleep. The food at breakfast,dinner and particularly afternoon tea was delicious. We hope to return in the spring maybe at bluebell time. One thing which might help visitors unfamiliar with the area might be a folder in the rooms giving an idea of local attractions and interesting places to visit and perhaps a little history of the hotel We thoroughly enjoyed our visit

“Festive Break.”

We are regular visitors to Ballathie, but not during the "Festive Period". In May 2025, after a struggle and thanks to the new owner, we managed to book a 12 say stay in the main building over Christmas and New Year. I say after a struggle. because the manager point blankly refused to take our book… lisää

We are regular visitors to Ballathie, but not during the "Festive Period". In May 2025, after a struggle and thanks to the new owner, we managed to book a 12 say stay in the main building over Christmas and New Year. I say after a struggle. because the manager point blankly refused to take our booking for the New Year despite us being prepared to give a non-refundable deposit. I now know why, as the rooms are held for those who attended the year before on the day they depart. No deposit taken but rooms are held until July for confirmation. This means there are no rooms available for new clients. Anyhow it meant that the Christmas visitors were of mixed ages and the New Year were all SENIOR guests. Too old to get up and dance to the music the band provided. And of course the Bar was almost empty in the evenings. Anyway, the staff were all fantastic and the service and food was FIRST CLASS. I don't want to name any member of staff as they were all wonderful, including, housekeeping, the waiting staff, reception and the kitchen. We look forward to our next visit but NOT for New Year.

“A second Hogmanay visit.”

I will start by saying that due to illness we had to leave before our full 3 day break. A smaller attendance this year given the state of the ‘economy’. This hotel is magnificently located. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. During the festive period one expects to pay more. But one als… lisää

I will start by saying that due to illness we had to leave before our full 3 day break. A smaller attendance this year given the state of the ‘economy’. This hotel is magnificently located. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. During the festive period one expects to pay more. But one also expects that the extravagantly, flamboyantly described menus will produce platters which match the description. Regrettably food was very disappointing- not a view influenced by early departure. Disappointed.
