Great place to stay with kitchen facilities. Room was great and so was the bed, coverings and pillows. Cold room as main heating not on with small heater in room that took the chill off. Water pressure good but getting a hot shower was a challenge but if you tired it right you got one.

Everything was great except the room is a bit warm when we got in. Had to wait till evening for the air to cool down. Would be better if there is an option for a standing fan.

Beautiful old house, but there is only a portable electric heater to heat a large room! Room was freezing all night. Portable heater could not warm an area 2 feet away. Also, no Internet in the rooms, you can pick up the wifi down stairs. Would not be such a big issue, but cell data is very spotty. You're forced to go to the common areas to get on the net.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Stay was very unique and cozy, and the staff was as nice as could be during the stay. Its a very old building, so you can hear all the neighbors rather easily, especially early in the morning. When researched online, I saw the town was about 25 minutes from Edinburgh, which seemed reasonable for getting rides or taking the train. However, finding taxis and Ubers to and from the the city proved more difficult. If you're looking to go to the city, I wouldn't recommend staying here. If you're looking for a quiet stay away, it would be very pleasant

AVOID

The room was in terrible condition — damp and mouldy, with spiders, moths, and webs throughout, and even a rat scratching inside the walls that kept us awake all night. By morning our clothes smelled strongly of mould, and we checked out immediately as the conditions were completely unacceptable. On top of this, there was no hair dryer, no kettle, only a single cheap plastic hanger in the closet (making it impossible to hang our coats), a random can of beer left in the drawer, and even a dehumidifier pot full of stagnant water on top of the closet, clearly unchanged for months. Overall, this was one of the worst hotel experiences we’ve ever had.

A little heat would have made the stay more enjoyable. It was further outside of Edinburgh than I had understood. My fault though. Price was agreeable. If I stay again I'd rent a car.

Not worth the money

We arrived to find the window wide ooen and not able to close, phoned countless times, they arrived at 8:30 eventually to fix it. There was no hot water and the shower was filthy. We landed up having to all chair the double bed as bunk bed was broken and unsafe. It smelt mouldy and was dirty

Beautiful country estate

This is a nice old estate in the countryside, about 30 mins from Edinburgh. The setting is beautiful, there is a river and forest just a short walk from the estate. Our room (#2) was a okay, the wallpaper was cute and beds were comfy but the wood floor under the carpet needed to be screwed down, it was SO LOUD every time you walked on it. The shared living space was large and nice, the kitchen was huge. Overall, we would stay again!
