Gleneagles Hotel in Perthshire is set to open its new event space - Ochil House - in May 2018.  

Ochil House will include seven flexible rooms which can be booked either individually or as one exclusive space for a range of meetings, events or as private dining rooms.

Ochil House will accommodate up to 100 guests.

The main feature room in Ochil House will be the Drawing Room with loads of natural lights and some of the best views in the hotel - and with private access to the Garden Café Lawn.

The Drawing room will seat up to 70 guests for a private dinner.

The various rooms in Ochil House all draw their inspiration from original rooms within Gleneagles Hotel.

The Assembly Room, for example, will offer flexible meeting space comprising three separate rooms – The Reading Room, The Writing Room and The Card Room – for groups between ten and 16 delegates. Partition walls will allow the creation of one larger room accommodating groups of up to 60.

All groups will have access to a communal pantry and an informal kitchen breakout space.

The communal pantry is designed as a drop-in space with newspapers and magazines, snacks, pastries, coffees and teas available all day. Breakout space can be arranged around the kitchen table which will also be available to book exclusively for evening functions.

Gleneagles Hotel retains its five-star status. It remains a member of The Leading Hotels of the World. It also features three championship golf courses, an award-winning spa and the only restaurant in Scotland to hold two Michelin stars.

Gleneagles Hotel is located in Auchterarder in Perthshire.
