Welcome into the Legend of Glenlaurel
A Scottish Country Inn and cottages

Experience the look of the Scottish countryside and the feel of times gone by at a luxurious storybook getaway for romantics and dreamers. Lazy, kidless afternoons, sumptuous fine dining for two, hot tub frolics, intimate fireside conversation, sleeping past seven, a hearty breakfast and a morning walk through Camusfearna Gorge with ne'er a soul in sight. Everybody deserves a wee bit o'Glenlaurel!

Glenlaurel, a Scottish Country Inn with Wooded Cottages and Crofts has been labeled the "premier romantic getaway in the Midwest." Located one hour southeast of Columbus, Ohio in the Hocking Hills, the 140-acre estate offers unpretentious elegance in its lodging and fine dining. The setting is a heavily wooded series of walking trails, rock cliffs and waterfalls. The old-world elegance of the Inn and the secluded, peaceful setting are ideal for romantic nights for two, peaceful getaways for one, weddings and business conferences.

When visiting Glenlaurel, there are several choices of accommodation where "ye may raist yer weary haid" for the night. Come along on an overview tour and feel free to stop off at any point.

The Manor House

This residence you first saw on arriving at our website overlooks our own private gorge trail, Camusfearna Gorge. It is truly the crown jewel of Glenlaurel-the original home of the Laird. Its cheery facade of stone and stucco gives way to the fabled carved mantle in the parlor, three dining rooms, the Loch Ness pub, the Waif's Haven kitchen, two guest rooms, and two guest suites. Rates: $179/$209 weeknights, $219/$259 weekends.

The Carriage House

The nearby Carriage House has one guest suite and one guest room. Upstairs, the Robertson Garret has a private bath, a kitchenette, and a private sitting area. Downstairs, the Douglas Highlander Suite has a two-person whirlpool tub, kitchenette, and a large private deck. Rates: $149/$209 weeknights, $179/$259 weekends.

The three west crofts are tucked into the edge of the Hamlet. They are about a ten minute walk from the Manor House and also accessible by car.
