Glasgow has an Holiday Inn right opposite the ternimal

I recall Perth (Scone) might have some too.

Perth (Scone)

Perth has a 'Skylodge' on the airfield offering reasonably priced modern accommodation. (Approx £20 per night if you are staying a few nights)

If you are seriously interested in using Glasgow International let me know and I might be able to help!

Cumbernauld also has a few decent hotels nearby.

Most airfields in Scotland has either some very close accommodation, or some very friendly natives willing to help!

I landed at Kinnaird and stayed there. It was a hotel at that time but I think its a B&B now. See on google maps a big flat field in front of the hotel about 420m long running parallel to the river. Truly awesome place.

I think there is a hotel on the airfield just over the border at Kirkbride.

I can't think of a single one. Maybe I haven't looked hard enough.

There are not many airstrips in Scotland without accommodation right next to it. Due to their weather conditions, they are also very used to organize non-scheduled overnights ...
