LATEROOMS.COM - BEST KEPT SECRET AWARDS


Next up was the Laterooms.com Best Kept Secret Awards 2012.  Laterooms.com is one of the Internet's largest on line booking sites, and we were proud to be shortlisted in the Summer with only two other UK hotel properties for this national award.  
Sadly we didn't win the top prize, but it's great to be shortlisted!

VISIT SCOTLAND SCOTTISH THISTLE AWARDS 2012

Visit Scotland is our national tourist board. Government funded, they are responsible for representing and promoting Scotland on a global stage.  A job they do very well.  Their Scottish Thistle Awards competition recognises and celebrates the best of Scotland's hospitality businesses in hotels, restaurants, attractions, events and marketing initiatives.  We were shortlisted in our Eastern region in April and won the regional award for best Guesthouse and Bed & Breakfast.  This put us through to the finals with three other regions which took place at The Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum in November.  Unfortunately, we did not win the top Scottish Thistle award, but were happy to have found ourselves up with the top four finalists in our category

PERTHSHIRE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
STAR AWARDS 2012

The Perthshire Chamber of Commerce is a highly active chamber representing the interests of local businesses and promoting and lobbying where required for the many different businesses that reside and operate in this fantastic, beautiful county. Their annual Star Awards program recognises and rewards what, in their opinion, are the best annual businesses in the county.  Hosted at The Crieff Hydro in November we were absolutely thrilled to pick up the Star Award for Tourism and Hospitality 2012

THANK YOU FOR A GREAT YEAR!

2012 has been, without doubt, our best year for public and industry recognition and we are very grateful .  It's always fantastic to receive awards and recognition for what we do at Craigatin House & Courtyard.  However without our customers coming to stay with us we would not be able to continue.  Thank you to everyone who has ever stayed with us and who is considering staying with us.  
We would not be the business we are without your support and patronage and we know that!  
Best wishes, Martin & Andrea
