Perthshire’s world famous Gleneagles Hotel saw its sales rise by nearly £50 million in the past year according to newly published accounts.
The luxury five-star golf and leisure resort near Auchterarder was closed to visitors for eight months over the financial year ending March 31, 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic and its annual turnover dipped to £19.7 million as a result.
The business also recorded a pre-tax loss of £9m that year after only being allowed to welcome guests between July 15 and November 13 in 2020 because of restrictions imposed on hospitality.
