Murrayshall Country Estate near Perth has launched a collection of luxury accommodation pods as part of the first stage of a £30m redevelopment programme.

The new units represent a 50% increase in capacity at the 365-acre estate, which currently offers 40 rooms and suites. Estate managers said the expansion would also create additional jobs in the local area.

The project has been five years in development and is being delivered in partnership with Armadilla, an accommodation specialist based in Scotland. The pods are positioned across the historic grounds to maximise privacy and views, with amenities including underfloor heating, air conditioning and televisions.

Gary Silcock, general manager of Murrayshall Country Estate, said: “This has been five years in the making and represents the first phase of our £30m investment in the future of Murrayshall. 

“The 50% increase in our accommodation capacity naturally means more employment opportunities will follow, which is fantastic news for our team and the local community.”

He added: “These pods offer something truly special for guests seeking that perfect blend of comfort and connection with nature.”

Murrayshall was named Best Hotel Experience at the Central and East of Scotland Thistle Awards regional final earlier this month. The estate, which has a history stretching back more than 400 years, also features a 27-hole golf course, AA Rosette restaurant Eòlas, and outdoor activities such as quad biking and axe throwing.

Future phases of the £30m programme include the development of a spa and fitness centre.
