Just when you think Gleneagles has done it all, they go and redefine the great outdoors. Enter Frandy Water—a brand-new wellness and watersports escape tucked just ten minutes from the hotel.

This isn’t your typical countryside add-on. Frandy Water feels deliberately off-grid, a place designed to help you switch off the noise and tune into something simpler. Think analog fun. No rush, no pressure, just fresh air, open water, and the freedom to shape your day as you like it.

Watersports & Sauna

At its heart, Frandy Water is about contrast. One moment you’re warming up in a crackling wood-fired sauna, the next you’re plunging into an invigorating cold dip that leaves you buzzing. For those craving movement, the loch becomes your playground: kayaking, canoeing, and fishing all unfold against a backdrop that feels both wild and deeply peaceful.

Family Canoe Session

One standout experience already making waves is the 90-minute family canoe session. Designed for two adults and up to three children, this guided paddle is equal parts adventure and bonding time.

You’ll hop into a classic Canadian canoe, get a quick, friendly introduction from expert guides, and then set off across the water. 

Summer Lawn Pop-Up

And while Frandy Water is all about nature, back at Gleneagles, there’s more to look forward to. The much-anticipated return of their summer lawn pop-up, The Chicken Coop 2.0, is on the horizon. Promising laid-back bites and long, golden evenings to round out a day well spent outdoors.
