Perfectly Splendid!

Our stay here was absolutely lovely! From check-in, throughout our stay, we felt warmly welcomed. This was our much awaited, and very much delayed honeymoon and they made it feel special. Thank you to everyone at the Carberry Tower Mansion - it truly is a special place with amazing staff! Room was clean, supplied with everything you would need in a hotel room. Our dinner was delicious - the sorbet for dessert (pudding) was the best I’ve ever had and I wish I would’ve asked if it was a specific brand or if they make it. If given the chance to visit Scotland in the future, I will be staying here again.

Beautiful accommodations & most friendly staff

This was our first time visiting Scotland. What a great stay to start our 2 weeks. The staff were the friendliest, most helpful we’ve come across in our travels. Dinner booked at the on site restaurant was amazing! The cocktails were scrumptious! We were kindly upgraded to a lovely suite overlooking the serene, picturesque grounds. Breakfast was so delicious and staff were so accommodating. They were so sweet to ask how our days out were, when we returned nightly. We would highly recommend you walk the grounds and trails around the property, the wind rustling in the trees with their huge canopies made me think I entered Narnia. We would certainly recommend and stay here again.

Right from the grandeur of the driveway and as the mansion is revealed you have sense you have arrived at a special place. The staff were wholly attentive, welcoming and helpful. The room we stayed in was second level and will be a lasting memory. Way seeing the grounds brought tranquility as you felt one with nature. We ate in and would highly recommend it. And a bonus having a good wine list.

What a beautiful property with a gorgeous room! We also enjoyed the extra rooms: library, music, etc. They were decorated very nice; we felt like we were staying in a castle! The staff were helpful and professional. The beds were not as comfortable as I would have liked. A perfect place to stay about 10 minutes drive from a park and ride into Edinburgh.

Stunning, stunning, STUNNING! A real step back in time, beautifully maintained & retaining all the beauty and grandeur you’d ever need. You feel like you’re living another life. You can wander through the house and grounds at your leisure. A lot of time was spent in the library and the drawing room as they are peaceful places to sit back and enjoy the rooms, with comfortable chairs galore. We added the afternoon tea to our stay, and were so glad we did. The food was exceptional and laid out beautifully. Overall would 100% recommend!!

Upon entering the gates to this beautiful estate, I was greeted with a lobby perfect for an estate. The decorations were stunning and the receptionist was so kind and answered all my questions. She even offered to make us a reservation at the estates restaurant (which was amazing by the way). The room its self was so clean and pleasant. Adventuring around the estate inside and outside was like stepping into a fairy tale. I enjoyed every second of my stay.

Carberry is an excellent choice for a stay near Edinburgh. I wanted the castle experience and this home has so much history, it exceeded my expectations. Breakfast was delicious with wonderful options, and the staff were both friendly and helpful. Our room was spotless and very comfortable, everything we needed and larger than I expected for a standard room. Definitely staying again!
