Errol Park: A Historic Country Estate for the Modern Traveller
Perched above the River Tay in the heart of Perthshire, Errol Park is more than just a place to stay—it’s a step back in time, wrapped in luxury and tranquillity. Once a private estate known for its elegant weddings and timeless architecture, this exceptional property is now available for exclusive holiday lettings, offering up to 40 guests the rare opportunity to experience life on a grand scale.
A Legacy in Stone
Errol Park’s story begins in the late 19th century. The main house, designed by architect Alexander Johnston between 1875 and 1877, stands as a proud example of Scottish Renaissance architecture. Its striking sandstone façade, symmetrical six-bay frontage, and finely pedimented windows speak to a time when homes were built to inspire.
As you arrive via the tree-lined drive—flanked by 31 towering Wellingtonias—you’re immediately immersed in history. These Californian redwoods, planted generations ago, form part of an estate that has been lovingly preserved over the centuries. Inside, the house retains its original elegance: a sweeping double staircase greets guests in the grand hallway, while wood-panelled rooms and antique furnishings reflect the estate’s rich heritage.
Space to Gather, Room to Roam
The main house sleeps 20 guests across ten beautifully appointed bedrooms. South-facing suites overlook the River Tay and rolling countryside, with large en-suite bathrooms—some featuring roll-top tubs positioned perfectly for a view. The master suite even boasts its own private drawing room.
Beyond the main house, a collection of additional buildings expands the estate’s capacity and charm:
The West Wing: Self-contained with 3 bedrooms, kitchen, and lounge
The Butler’s Quarters: 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms
The Gardener’s Cottage: A charming retreat with 3 double bedrooms and full kitchen
The Potting Sheds: Recently renovated, with 2 king-size en-suite bedrooms by the walled garden
These spaces allow families or groups of friends to stay together while still enjoying their own corners of comfort and privacy.
Nature Meets Heritage
Set across 3,000 acres, Errol Park is a haven for wildlife and a celebration of Scottish countryside. Its ancient oak and yew trees, open meadows, and winding paths create a peaceful backdrop to your stay. Red squirrels dart through branches, Highland cows graze nearby, and horses dot the surrounding fields—bringing life to the estate’s timeless beauty.
The gardens are as much a part of the estate’s character as the buildings themselves. In spring and summer, wildflowers bloom in bursts of colour, while autumn transforms the landscape into gold and rust. Guests are free to roam, explore, and simply slow down.
Luxury with a Light Touch
Though steeped in history, Errol Park offers the comfort of a boutique hotel with the warmth of a private home. Luxury linens, hairdryers in every room, and thoughtful touches throughout ensure your stay is as effortless as it is elegant. A long-standing on-site caretaker is available to assist, providing support while respecting your space.
Whether you're hosting a family reunion, celebrating a special occasion, or simply seeking stillness in nature, Errol Park offers an unforgettable setting rooted in legacy, beauty, and quiet grandeur.
