Business defeated in battle over Gleneagles hotel name

A SMALL conservatory firm has been forced to change its name after being sued by the world-famous Gleneagles Hotel.

The five-star resort near Auchterarder, Perthshire, took businessman Ian Ross to court in a bid to make him rebrand his Gleneagles Conservatories company.

Hotel bosses accused Mr Ross of infringing their trademark, devaluing their brand and duplicating their logo without permission.
