Exclusive Scottish Venue Mar Hall Golf and Spa Resort joins Venues of Excellence

Venues of Excellence, the UK’s leading consortium for independent venues, are proud to announce 5-star Mar Hall Golf and Spa Resort has joined their collection of outstanding conference and events venues, adding another fantastic independent Scottish venue to their membership.

A leading resort in Scotland overlooking the River Clyde and set in a tranquil 240 acres woodland estate, Mar Hall is an ideal location for residential conferences, events, product launches, reception dinners and private events which call for a touch of grandeur. Located just 10 minutes away from Glasgow International Airport and with great transport connections, Mar Hall is easily accessible for delegates from across the UK and abroad.

Mar Hall never fails to impress with a range of meeting rooms and a marquee able to host up to 250 delegates. The extensive leisure pursuits available at the resort allow delegates to relax and unwind at the end of the working day, with a choice of spa treatments, the gym and pool or a round or two of golf on the championship Earl of Mar Par 70 golf course.

Mar Hall was recently purchased by Align Partners who are investing over £15M across the Estate to enhance the facilities on offer to guests for both business and leisure.

On Mar Hall joining Venues of Excellence, Mandy Jennings, CEO said: “We are so excited to welcome Mar Hall into our wonderful family of excellent venues and expand our portfolio in Scotland. With the multi-million pound investment going into the property, we are delighted to support them on their journey of excellence and look forward to sharing information on this fantastic venue with our loyal customers and agency partners.  Mar Hall has welcomed many celebrities through their doors, and is perfect for a prestigious board meeting, inspirational conference, management away day or exclusive hire event.  We look forward to working closely with Joe and his team.”

Joe Gallacher, General Manager at Mar Hall Golf and Spa Resort on joining the consortium said: We chose to join Venues of Excellence as we see it as a fantastic opportunity for us, as an independent hotel, to elevate its status and reputation in the hospitality industry. As a member of this prestige organisation our hotel will benefit from access to unique and outstanding customer service training programmes that will support us providing the highest quality service to our guests. We also share some of the core values which is extremely important to us as we move forward. By joining Venues of Excellence, our Hotel will also have the opportunity to network with other top-tier properties to learn and share best practise but also best fit, which will further enhance our reputation. This commitment to excellence and continuous improvement sets Venues of Excellence apart from other organisations in the industry and will ultimately help us stand out from the competition.

With a fabulous trio of unique venues on the West Coast of Scotland, including thestudio Glasgow city centre, and the Golden Jubilee Conference Hotel, Venues of Excellence continues to expand its geographical footprint across the UK.

Mar Hall Golf and Spa Resort will be joining 14 stand partners on the Venues of Excellence Stand (E51) at The Meetings Show at ExCeL London on 19-20th June, when conference and event planners can learn more about this outstanding Scottish conference and events venue in addition to hearing all the latest news from Venues of Excellence.
