Gleneagles is already well-known throughout the world as a fantastic golf destination; and with them hosting the 2014 Ryder Cup, their great reputation should only become more widespread.
To add to this, Gleneagles have now been selected as the home of the PGA National Academy for Scotland. This should provide an outstanding facility for golfers and coaches in Scotland. Congratulations!

As the lucky owner of a black Labrador myself, I couldn’t wait to visit the Gundog School at the hotel. There was already a group of children at the kennels and they were playing with the latest puppy recruits – absolutely adorable! That was all I needed to sign up for a basic training session the next day and I had a great time with my doggie partner, Skye; she knew exactly what to do but waited for my commands so I could ‘pretend’ I was in charge!

I was recently made aware of a new development being proposed for central Scotland which has some very interesting story lines. The proposed development is in the same area as Gleneagles Hotel which has long been regarded as one of the finest country hotels in the world. Funded by money from Dubai, given the current economic climate it is filled with grand plans. The full article is available here. From a golfers perspective, one of the interesting stories is the possible inclusion of David McLay Kidd, who grew up as son of the Greenskeeper at nearby Gleneagles…something of a coming home.
