At a glance: The long-awaited sequel to the recently renovated Gleneagles in the Scottish Highlands, the 33-room Gleneagles Townhouse is a transformation of two separate former bank buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries in St. Andrew Square. “The first and second floors are dominated by six Corinthian columns topped by an elaborate entablature with foliate carving and supporting six statues, which the rooftop bar, Lamplighters, is now set behind,” says Ennismore design director Charlie North. “It was previously only [the statues] that held the views over the city that guests will now enjoy.”
