Emma Former cafe converted into townhouse accommodation
McKays Hotel Bar and Restaurant, part of the Turas Hotels group, has completed the £250 000 conversion of an Italian café to create the new McKays Townhouse.
Set in an original Victorian building, The Townhouse sees 7 en-suite bedrooms developed over the top two floors, with 2 spacious luxury self-catering apartments on the ground and basement floors.
Located across Atholl Road from the main hotel, the addition of the Townhouse comes just three years after McKays invested £1.25 million to create 12 new bedrooms and a 100-seat function suite.
“It has been an incredible journey,” said McKays Co-Owner, Richard Drummond.
“With McKays developing into more rooms and a much bigger food and beverage business, we decided to convert the cafe into rooms because we felt there was demand for more up-market self-catering accommodation in Pitlochry and we wanted The Townhouse to offer something slightly different to the rest of McKays.
“I am really proud of what we’ve achieved.”
Furnished and decorated in contemporary Scottish style, the addition of the Townhouse expands McKays’ accommodation offering as Pitlochry continues to attract domestic, UK and international visitors.
