To beat the new year blues, the Gleneagles Hotel in Perthshire invites guests to experience the ultimate Winter Escape with its Winter Lodge & Adventure Pass package -offering the best of seasonal country pursuits with a complimentary room upgrade for an extra luxurious stay. From 7 January to 14 March, this all-encompassing pass will channel guests’ adventurous spirit through a range of experiences on Gleneagles’ legendary 850-acre estate. The cosy pop-up Winter Lodge, complete with roaring fires, will offer the perfect spot in which to unwind after a day in the great outdoors, complete with live music, board games and fireside tipples for the ultimate decompress.
Guests will begin their day in the adults-only Winter Lodge (exclusive to Adventure Pass holders), open from 12.00pm until 6.30pm, Sunday through to Thursday where complimentary tea, coffee and scrumptious home-baked cake await. As the winter skies darken, Adventure Pass holders can opt for a firelit falconry display showcasing the handsome Harris Hawks and Golden Eagles, or can attempt to master the skill of Axe Throwing with a Gleneagles instructor, who will demonstrate how to wield the mighty tomahawk axe in a supervised free-throwing session.
The late afternoons are dedicated to live music and games of Ring Toss, Scrabble, cards or dominoes, accompanied by a complimentary fine Macallan whisky cocktail and a sharing charcuterie board by the roaring fire back in the Winter Lodge – an ideal way to unwind after a day of adventures.
Following a relaxing overnight stay in a glorious Manor Room and a hearty breakfast, guests can enjoy a guided ramble across the estate with the Gleneagles’ team, providing ample opportunity to spot local wildlife and soak up the scenic snow-capped hills and Munros of Perthshire.
Beyond the Winter Lodge & Adventure Pass, guests can choose to expand their itinerary with the choice of over 50 country pursuits led by the resident expert team – from casting fishing flies at Laich Loch to cracking clays and shooting arrows at the shooting range. No matter what age or experience level, there are endless opportunities to reconnect with nature and revel in the magic of the Scottish Highlands.
