The main building is of traditional two storey and attic design, with planning permission to further extend to the rear. Since purchasing the property in 2013, our clients have invested heavily in a comprehensive refurbishment programme which has seen a complete redevelopment of the original property. They have managed to create something truly special with The Courie Inn, as the Hotel offers cosy yet contemporary accommodation for its guests. Our clients have managed to enhance the traditional features of the building, whilst incorporating some modern concepts.
BUSINESS - The Hotel provides accommodation suitable for Romantic getaways, groups of friends, family trips or lone travellers looking to enjoy the great outdoors. It is a place for everyone to relax in a very friendly atmosphere.
Rooms can be reserved through the popular booking sites, such as Booking.com and Expedia – or through the increasingly popular and comprehensive direct booking system and Hotel’s own dedicated website and many repeat customers.
When guests check-in they are welcomed to their room with complimentary tea, coffee, hot chocolate, bottled water & toiletries. It’s the little touches like this, coupled with the teams tremendous efforts to make every guests stay as comfortable as possible, that have contributed to The Courie Inn achieving its ‘Superb’ rating on Booking.com and a Certificate of Excellence from TripAdvisor.
Ultimately, the business has two income streams; the letting rooms of hotel and the food/wet sales from the Bar & Bistro. Sales have risen consistently, up to the current level of circa £XXX net of V.A.T.
As the Bar & Bistro are open to the public, the Courie Inn has become a real hub of the local community. The Bar offers a great selection of beers, wines and spirits and a popular menu of ‘pub meals’ and snacks. Alternatively, if more of a dining experience is preferred modern Scottish and local dishes can be ordered from the Bistro.
The business is run by our clients with the assistance of 10 staff, on both full time and part time basis. A staff list will be made available after a formal viewing.
Location
The Courie Inn is located in a prominent position, on the main road through the picturesque village of Killin on the A827.
Rich in history, the village is located in the central Highlands of Perthshire and to the west of Loch Tay. Killin is a popular stopover for travellers and a renowned destination choice for those seeking magnificent Scottish scenery and all manner of outdoor pursuits. Famously known for the Falls of Dochart - scenic waterfalls that run through the village, and the Breadalbane Mountains surrounding, visitors enjoy the stunning views.
Nestled in The Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park with Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve nearby, visitors can enjoy a lovely mix of wildlife spotting, outdoor activities and walking. Killin also benefits from being on the increasingly popular Rob Roy Way.
Whilst almost the geographical epicentre of Scotland Killin and The Courie Inn are only an hour and a half from both Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Accommodation
There are 7 rooms to choose from, consisting of a large family room or romantic suite, 2 family rooms, 3 king size rooms and 1 double – all with names, inspired by their Scottish surroundings. There are various upgrades to rooms in order to accommodate guests needs, such as handcrafted bunk beds and pull-out beds. The MacDonald suite also boasts a beautiful roll top bath, the perfect addition for a Romantic stay.
Whichever room guests pick, there is a common occurrence in the online reviews; they are all extremely clean & comfortable. All rooms benefit from private bathrooms fitted with either a bath, shower or both. There is a flat screen TV in each room and guests can log on to free WiFi.
Another attraction to the hotel is the offering of some ‘pet friendly’ rooms, allowing guests the option to bring along their furry friends.
