A 17th Century family house built
on 15th century foundations, Pittodrie House is one of the most historic hotels
in Scotland, set in a 2400 acre country estate. Pittodrie Estate is steeped in
history and you can live amongst country gentry when you stay here.
The Erskine family were rewarded
for their support of Robert the Bruce with the granting of the Pittodrie Estate.
The rooms are adorned with family portraits and antique furnishings. Original
family paintings and antiques are found in the reception rooms and bedrooms, and
both the drawing room and library feature a log fire. The bedrooms are
individually decorated and furnished and have modern facilities.
In the dining room at Pittodrie,
guests can enjoy a taste of Scotland's finest produce, sourced locally with some
ingredients grown in the Georgian walled garden. The wine list covers all major
regions of the world and the bar boasts over 150 malt whiskies.
The hotel provides clay pigeon
shooting, table tennis, billiards, petanque and croquet. A selection of trout,
sea trout and salmon fishing is available on the Don, Dee and Deveron. There's
also stalking, plus driven, walked-up and rough shooting. Many fine golf courses
are nearby. Pony trekking and off road driving are available on the estate.
