The Glasshouse Restaurant

Bathed in natural light, this elegant conservatory is filled with vibrant fabrics, original artwork and flourishing blooms, creating a space that feels both fresh and beautifully refined. Available for evening dining, it offers an intimate, relaxed setting with botanical charm.

Cromlix Bar

Moody and atmospheric, the castle’s bar will cocoon you with its character and warmth. On curved banquette seating, surrounded by a rich and evocative colour palette and striking works of art, relax with a sophisticated cocktail, your preferred choice of single malt or a velvety wine.

Activities/Leisure

A varied collection of country pursuits and leisurely pastimes awaits, both on the estate and within the local area.

Wellness & Spa Retreat

A short walk from the main house, through the trees and into the peaceful heart of the estate sits Cromlix’s Woodland Retreat, a sanctuary dedicated to stillness, restoration and reconnection.

Estate

Set within 34 acres of enchanting woodland, rolling farmland and beautifully kept grounds, Cromlix invites you to step outside and explore at your own pace. Sweeping lawns and winding pathways lead you through a landscape designed for slow discovery, where every turn reveals a new corner of serenity.

History

There’s little known about Cromlix before the 15th century, though evidence of an earlier population living in the area has been found, including some stone cists (coffins) 500 yards west of the house.
