Andy Murray’s Cromlix Hotel rated vs other celeb side hussles including Ian McKellen, Charlotte Church and Gary Neville
SIR Andy Murray’s five-star hotel has been named one of the UK’s top celeb-owned businesses.
His luxury Cromlix venue in Dunblane, Perthshire, ranked fifth in a list of “side hustles” for famous Brits.
Bought in 2013 by the tennis hero and wife Kim, both 36, it’s racked up “excellent” reviews from 63 per cent of customers, according to research by media firm Wealth of Geeks.
The 15-bedroom site won the hotel of the year gong at the Scottish Thistle Awards held in December.
The list was topped by film legend Sir Ian McKellen’s pub and restaurant The Grapes in Limehouse, East London.
It pipped singer Charlotte Church’s wellness retreat, The Dreaming, in Rhayader, central Wales.
Ex-Chelsea footie ace Ziyech’s Taco Taco restaurant in East London and actor Adam Rickitt’s craft beer bar in Cheshire came third and fourth respectively.
But Sir Andy’s pad beat Hotel Football in Manchester owned by former Man United players Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville.
Meanwhile Andy Murray has admitted that his on-court behaviour has always been a little weird.
The Scot was speaking after a fine Miami Open first round win over Matteo Berettini.
Asked by his former doubles partner and pal Laura Robson – now a SkySports pundit – why he appeared to be doing ‘fake laughter’ during the match, Murray held his hands up.
Robson asked: “I’ve seen it all from you on the court, but there was a new one from you today, a lot of fake laughter.
“What was the vibe there?”
He replied: “I’m not a robot. I’m a bit odd. I’m a bit strange.
“But I play better when I’m like that.”
