"Lovely, peaceful accommodations "

10.0

We really enjoyed our time at the Balbirnie House. The gardens and grounds were beautiful and peaceful, and it was a great home base for us to stay near Edinburgh. The train was easy to catch from Glenrothes and took less than an hour to arrive in the city (although peak-time prices were extreme!). We had a family suite and there was plenty of space for our 3 grown boys and us, but we could have used a fan in each bedroom as the days were warm and the windows didn't open wide enough to allow for airflow. Meals at the on-site restaurant were lovely, and the staff was accommodating and professional. Overall a very nice stay!

⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our overnight stay was absolutely wonderful! The décor throughout was charming and beautifully suited to the historic character of the building—it felt like stepping back in time, but with every modern comfort. The staff were the true stars—warm, accommodating, and incredibly helpful from start to finish. They made us feel welcome and well taken care of, making the whole experience even more memorable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for comfort with a touch of history!

Excellent location, warm welcome. Very comfortable night’s sleep. Lovely breakfast to set me up for the day. Highlight was the coffee machine in the room. Best cup of coffee I’ve ever made in a hotel room.

Another great stay at this wonderful and peaceful hotel. Beware of the dog (charge) - it’s expensive at £25 per pet per night. Otherwise one of our very favourite places to come and relax!

Very pleasant surroundings, beautiful building. perfect grounds. I had a single room only which was very nice and bright with strong water pressure. Would stay again. Maybe i misunderstood but adding breakfast would add £ 40.... Excellent stay
