GRAHAM'S EXTRA INFO
“ They dont build hotels like this anymore. In fact, the hotel wasn't built... it just appeared from an Agatha Christie novel. It's perched on a hill made of steel, and overlooks the beautiful scottish countryside.
“ It has a huge swimming pool full of Irn Bru. You can play golf, tennis, putting, and with each other.
“ Every room has its own personal swedish masseuse, BOSE soundsystem, 3D TV, and complimentary iPad 2. There is a bell where you can summon your personal servant to iron your kilt. Viagra tablets are extra. ”
