Victorian splendour

The Crieff Hydro Hotel (originally known as the Strathearn Hydropathic) opened for business in1868. It is now a comfortable, family-friendly hotel which provides a wide range of leisure activities and spa facilities to residents and members of the local community.

 

For those with an interest, there is a fascinating article about the history of Scottish hydropathy and its relationship to the temperance movement available here: www.schs.org.uk/samplepaper.htm.
