The Residents' Lounges offer the opportunity to relax over morning coffee, afternoon tea or a quiet drink. By way of contrast, the "Monarch of the Glen Lounge Bar", with its log fire and cosy decor, offers a more lively atmosphere and a chance to sample a wide range of local malt whiskies.

There is a popular Public Bar, equipped with Pool Table, Dart Board and TV. Delicious bar lunches, suppers and hot snacks are served in both bars which stay open all day. The Ruthven Suite, with its large dance floor and residents' bar, offers live entertainment on most evenings.
