I sent an email ahead of my stay requesting a seat for the shower as I am a wheelchair user. I had to request again on arrival, the chair was provided but it was impossible to close the shower door. A smaller seat would have worked. I have no complaints on any other amenities and staff were very nice. Just such a simple thing can make the weekend less of a problem re the wheelchair use.

Easy to drop family and luggage at front of hotel and parking not far away. Both children (6 3) enjoyed Big Crunchie (Big Country, but hard to say when you're 3!) This 2hr childcare is fab and enabled us to go to the Victorian Spa and have a few moments to actually read a book! BEWARE: you need to book your holiday directly through the hotel to get this free. If you book through a 3rd party, eg Expedia then it's £15 per child per session. Entertainment at night was good, our kids loved disco, bingo and magician whilst we were there. We also played tennis, had fun in the play park and had a lead-rein walk. Breakfast was good, very busy. You really do need to book everything in advance though. Splash times are very busy (fab inflatable slide) but go outwith these times and it's much more pleasant!

Crieff Hydro
Went to Crieff Hydro for the first time this weekend. We are a couple in our 50s and had a fantastic time. The hotel and amenities far exceeded our expectations. Drinks on the terrace, dinner in the Meikle restaurant and at the nearby sister hotel the Murraypark which were both excellent. After dinner drinks in the piano bar finishe both evenings off nicely before retiring to the comfort of our room which was clean, comfortable and well appointed. We enjoyed the Victorian baths, putting, walks and watching all the children and families enjoying the activities. Breakfast was amazing! We plan a return soon with our adult children and partners. Definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a relaxing break with a host of activities available to keep you entertained or places to just chill. Also a walk into the town of Crieff is a must, lovely little shops to browse and buy some amazing local produce

Mildly disappointing but with redeeming qualities
Not obvious when we booked that the Victorian Spa was not included-thanks to staff for managing to get us in at relatively short notice but the time was not ideal so book in advance to avoid disappointment. Hotel is huge with multiple places to eat and drink, but again, book in advance to get the venue and time you want as it does get very busy. Room had a lovely view, but was a little tired and for a “feature room” it was a little bit disappointing. In fact, a lot of things were just a little bit below par; fruit at breakfast was in syrup not fresh, not all areas have a lift so we had to carry bags up steps and down a long corridor, I had to move furniture in the room to access wall sockets, the kettle was hidden in a drawer. But, the Victorian Baths were amazing, the food in The Terrace/Piccolo was fantastic, and the staff were fabulous Overall, good but not great
