Andy Murray’s luxury Scotland hotel refurbishment nearing completion

The refurbishment of a luxury hotel in Perthshire, Scotland, owned by Wimbledon 2013 Champion, London 2012 Olympic Gold Medalist and British number one, Andy Murray, is nearing completion.

The five-star Cromlix Hotel, located near Murray’s home town of Dunblane, will feature five suites, ten bedrooms, a chapel, reception hall, two drawing rooms, a conservatory, library, meeting rooms and a Chez Roux restaurant offering locally sourced produce.

The hotel, which sits in 36 acres of landscaped grounds, was bought by Murray in February for £1.8m who said: “I have obviously been pretty busy recently, but I’ve been keeping in touch with the refurbishment work at Cromlix and am delighted with its progress.”

Cromlix House was built in 1874 as the family home for the Edens, who own the surrounding 2,000 acre estate.

The hotel is being managed by Inverlochy Castle Management International (ICMI) and is set to reopen in the first quarter of 2014 and will create 40 new jobs for the area.
