Swimming Pool & The Hydropathic Heritage
at Atholl Palace Hotel
Our swimming pool and The Spa at Atholl Palace are on the garden level of the Atholl Palace Hotel with doors which open on to the fragrant oaks of the Black Spout woods to views of the Tummel Valley. The Spa has been designed to complement the Victorian Gothic architecture of the original hydropathic spa. Our water in the pools is from it’s original source, filtered through the volcanic rock of Ben y Vrackie.
Our indoor facilities include a spa bath, steam room and gym.
Limited gym membership is available.
Please note: For health and safety reasons during busy periods you may be restricted to a one hour use of the pool facilities.
