Accommodation
Meldrum House Hotel boasts unique luxury bedrooms, all individually furnished and full of unique Scottish character. The warm furnishings and the stunning ballroom add to the traditional feel throughout the hotel, whilst the amenities offer a modern twist.
The Stables is the latest addition to Meldrum House with spacious king rooms, decorated in contemporary Scottish luxury and beautiful architectural features, including beams in the ceiling. All the amenities you would expect from the Maldron House main hotel come included with the room. For a more traditional experience, you could choose a Manor Master room which boasts a four-poster bed, original antique artefacts, and stunning views out across the estate. If you'd prefer a contemporary room, then the Estate rooms offer stunning décor, walk-in power showers, king-sized beds, and fantastic views, making them a great choice.
The Chain Lodge is perfect for a family/friends golf break. The private building is just a short walk from the hotel and comes with its own kitchen and lounge area. However, the drinks service remains the same as the hotel so you are being well looked after within the privacy of your own retreat.
Restaurant & Bars
For dining, there are multiple options. 1236 is open daily, serving Brunch, Lunch and Dinner in the award-winning Cave Bar. The focus is on informal and social small plate dining, inspired by ingredients that are local to the hotel. Pineapple Grill and Seafood is open from 6pm for dinner with views out to the golf course. Here you will find a relaxed and informal dining experience with a focus on fish and beef using some of the best local and trusted suppliers in Aberdeenshire.

Dine in the private atmospheric domes which provide the ultimate experience, from a Bluetooth music system to temperature control, to views across the course. Domes hold from 6 to 12 people and should be booked in advance. The hotel is also complemented by 2 bars - the Cave Bar which hosts over 120 whiskies alongside other drinks, and the Titan Sky Bar.

Meldrum House Golf Course
Designed by Graeme Webster, this course features a world-class Golf Academy and driving range that has the latest Trackman facilities. The Clubhouse includes a well-stocked Pro Shop, bar and restaurant. This layout is challenging for any kind of handicapper, due to the wide variety of tee boxes at each hole. Accuracy and precision is required to score well and many approach shots demand a good deal of nerve when attempting to carry the water guarding the greens.
