Everything about his property was incredible. It feels like you’re in the country but it is a quick and inexpensive ride to get into the city. The restaurant is amazing and the entire staff were simply the best we’ve experienced at any stay we have booked. I can’t recommend Prestonfield House enough.

Incredible service, the restaurant is excellent, as was high tea. Sort of walkable to downtown (45 minutes) and there are buses as well. About 30 minute cab from airport. Each room is uniquely decorated and very comfortable.

Relaxing festive break

Such a friendly welcome at this stunning hotel. Stayed in December so the festive decorations were out and stunning. Room was extremely comfortable with so many luxurious finishes and touches. We dined at on site Rhubard restaurant and whilst a delicious meal, found the service not as attentive as it could have been. But this was specific to the restaurant and not general to the hotel.

Really lovely. Staff were excellent, taking great care of myself and my dog Teddi, especially at meal times so that I didn't have to leave Teddi in the car while I ate. My only very minor observation was the bed being so high. Needed steps to climb in. However an excellent stay, grounds great for taking dog for a walk. Would definitely stay again.
