"Atholl Palace is a wonderful place to visit. The staff are very helpful and polite, nothing is a problem! The food is amazing and the rooms are made up daily. This is great for either a weekend break or stay for a week. Great for couples or families. The spa is also brilliant and relaxing. Book now and stay, you won't be disappointed!"
A Very Special
Highland Hogmanay
The imposing Highland setting, the blazing log fires, the delightfully relaxing surroundings, the many years of experience on hand, the many optional activities, and of course that special atmosphere for the big night – how can you resist the thought of Hogmanay at the Atholl Palace!
Just a few things change each year, but our guests keep telling us not to change anything - so we don’t! Some of the many elements that fill up each day are listed below!
This year on 30th December we visit Blair Castle, home of the Dukes of Atholl and 700 years of Scottish History. On Hogmanay we return to Perth Theatre for the traditional festive panto ‘Cinderella’.
