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.

We loved the historic nature of the building dating back to 1480. Restaurant food was excellent. The grounds are lovely. The interior spaces need refreshing and is showing wear and tear.

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!

Good value. Wifi and breakfast included.

Very comfortable stay and good breakfast. Only marred by being woken by the bin men at 6am and the staff arriving and having a very loud conversation for almost 30 minutes near the bedroom window at 6.45am. The room would benefit from a deep clean but it was good that it was a generous size.
