Activities
Starting with our activities at Action Glen and Loch Earn Watersports. As we said before, over 30 activities - how are you going to choose? Whether you fancy zipping up The Knock on our EZ Raiders, testing your balance on the paddle boards and surfboards, or taking it slow sauntering with our Alpacas, we can guarantee that there will be something for all the family to enjoy. Don’t forget about Glen’s Adventure Park - a haven of excitement and adventure for tiny tots.
Local Walks
We are lucky at Crieff Hydro to be situated on a 900 acre estate, think of all the exploring there is to do. From short walks to Munro hikes, Crieff is certainly the place to get those legs moving and breathe in the fresh air. The Knock is a short walk from the hotel, and you won’t believe the breath-taking views when you get to the top (we won’t spoil it for you). If you fancy something a little bit more challenging, we recommend Laggan Hill which overlooks Strathearn - stunning. Finally, for you Munro-baggers out there, there are three nearby. Ben Vorlich, Ben Chonzie, and Stuac a’ Chroin, all offering beautiful views over Loch Earn and beyond. Three down, just another 279 to go.
Food and Drink
We bet even reading this has made you think about the food you’d devour after getting your heart pumping. Well, did you know that we have a choice of bars and restaurants in and around the hotel? Whether you’re looking for a delicious date night The Terrace, a sweat treat at The Winter Gardens, a quick post-activity bite at Basecamp, pizza and pasta with the kids at Piccolo Pizzeria, or an indulgent evening of the finest gins and whiskies in The Tasting Room. For every day during your stay (we’re poets), you can try new, tantalising flavours which your taste buds will thank us for. Check out the opening hours here.
Spa & Leisure
You’ll definitely want to spend some time relaxing, you’re on holiday after all. Our swimming pool, spa, and (adults only) Victorian Baths will certainly do the trick. We could list all of the treatments available, but we’ll just get jealous…check out the brochure here.
What about a movie night? Just grab your room key, and head to our cinema to watch a film with the family (don’t forget your popcorn).
