A multi-million-pound development predicted to bring 400 jobs to Perthshire has hit a major milestone after planning permission was approved for the construction of a new spa and leisure facility at the Murrayshall Country Estate.
Murrayshall has undergone a £5 million development in the last four years, with enhancements to its 18-hole championship golf course, hotel and bar and restaurant. And this latest project will see 25 holiday lodges and a 27,000 square foot spa and leisure facility constructed.
Plans for 22 luxury glamping pods were approved last September.
Stellar Asset Management, the owner of the Perthshire golfing estate, said the development could bring up to 400 jobs in hospitality, wellness, and leisure services.
Murrayshall general manager Gary Silcock said: “This is a major step forward for Murrayshall. Since Stellar Asset Management took ownership in 2016, we have been dedicated to enhancing the estate’s offerings. The approval of 25 holiday lodges and a new leisure club and spa represents a turning point.
“These facilities are designed not only for our guests but also for the local community, as we shift Murrayshall away from seasonal trends and towards year-round membership engagement.”
Murrayshall comprises a four-star country house hotel, two golf courses, a driving range and a range of self-catering lodges. To accommodate the new spa, the club’s Lynedoch golf course has been reconfigured and reduced to 10 holes.
