Gleneagles is particularly iconic in the world of golf, boasting three championship courses: the King’s, Queen’s, and PGA Centenary Course. Designed by legendary figures like James Braid and Jack Nicklaus, these courses have hosted major tournaments, including the 2014 Ryder Cup and the 2019 Solheim Cup. The King’s Course, opened in 1919, is considered a masterpiece of inland golf architecture, blending natural terrain with strategic challenge. Gleneagles is not just a golf destination; it’s a cultural landmark, representing Scotland’s rich sporting tradition, and offering a uniquely refined yet rugged experience that few resorts in the world can match.
Nestled in the heart of Perthshire, Scotland, Gleneagles is a legendary estate that has embodied Scottish elegance and sporting excellence since it opened in 1924. Originally built by the Caledonian Railway Company as a "Riviera in the Highlands," the Gleneagles Hotel quickly earned a reputation as one of the world’s most luxurious resorts. Its grand architecture, lush countryside surroundings, and renowned hospitality have attracted royalty, celebrities, and international travelers for nearly a century. Beyond its accommodations, the estate spans over 850 acres and offers everything from falconry and shooting to spa experiences and fine dining, including the two Michelin-starred Restaurant Andrew Fairlie.
