FAQs

The Dormy Restaurant, Birnam Brasserie, Auchterarder 70 and Restaurant Andrew Fairlie do not have a strict dress code and casual dress is permitted.

In The Strathearn Restaurant the refined setting encourages you to dress for dinner although jackets and ties are not essential.

In The American Bar, informal clothing of any kind – including ripped denim, trainers, baseball caps, non-collared t-shirts and shorts – would be inappropriate for the elegant setting. While jackets and ties are not essential, smart attire would be expected and formal dress would be welcomed.

All of our outdoor pursuits are currently available to guests with some additional protocols and restrictions in order to comply with government guidelines to ensure physical distancing and safe enjoyment of the activities. With the exception of Lawn Games, all of our activities require advance booking with our Playground Planners and in all cases we are taking guest details in line with track and trace responsibilities.

We are amending any restrictions on activities at all times in line with current advice and we recommend checking on these at the time of booking. Currently, age restrictions for our activities have returned to normal but some activities require a physical or competency requirement in order to take part. For example, junior riding lessons are available but riders over the age of 12 must be able to adjust their own stirrups and girth in order for our riding coaches to observe physical distancing.

The Shooting & Fishing School is currently offering Archery, Air Rifle and Fishing all at normal age restriction limits as a guide but as in our normal operations, participation is dependent on a physical safety check to ensure appropriate competency with the equipment. At the current time, clay pigeon shooting is only available to guests who are 16 and over, can self-load and have previous experience.

We are pleased to offer you a number of other options such as outdoor fitness activities, bike hire and a small selection of water sports at our very own Laich Loch.
