Another Hydro, but it’s not like Crieff. Peebles Hydro has 132 bedrooms and like many of her rooms, is firmly focused on the outdoors and making the most of what’s on the doorstep. Kids activities might send them back a little muddy but they’ll love meeting our bees, hens and chickens and can even learn to build a proper woodland den.
