I was a little wary about staying here after reading the comments on this sight. However we were very pleasantly suprised. We had booked to stay on the weekend of the Edinburgh Marathon and needed two rooms at reasonable prices. That is what we got. A clean, comfortable room with ensuite shower, television and tea and coffee making facilities. The... More

We stayed this weekend for the Edinburgh Marathon run and the calm, beautiful surroundings of the hotel were just what the doctor ordered. The grounds and building itself are magnificent, with history written everywhere. The staff are relaxed and obviously very hard-working. Standards are good, public areas are polished and stately- library, lounges, etc - and our room was airy,... More

This hotel is absolutely beautiful. Apparently it was the home of the Queen Mothers Sister many years ago. You can feel the history steeped within this hotel. When we first arrived we were a little early so we went for a walk around the vast grounds. I couldnt believe that a deer ran across the lawn into the wooded area... More

Carberry Tower, was plainly put - Fantastic. Great views, and lovely rooms, and Douglas and the rest of staff pleasant beyond belief. Douglas always going out of his way to help with a simple request, and a welcoming reception from all the staff. Overall a Fantastic stay and one to be enjoyed again. More

We were at Carberry Towers for a family wedding 2 weeks ago. We had been looking forward to it for months. Unfortunately the rudeness and unproffesionalism of Douglas the House Manager was reflected at every level of our 2 day stay.His treatment of paying guests and his overall manner left a lot to be desired. His behavior was erratic to... More

It's been nearly 6 weeks since I got married at Carberry Tower and all my friends and family are still raving about it. It was a dream wedding and Douglas and his awesome team were a huge part of what made it so special. The venue is absolutely stunning, beautifully refurbished without taking away any of the character. It's big... More

Just returned from a short stay here. It's a stunning building set in extensive well maintained grounds. The public rooms are cosy and comfortable. Those on the first floor are exceptional. The food in the restaurant was well presented and really good; the breakfast too was outstanding. Our bedroom was large, clean and comfortable with great views over the rear... More

What a wonderful place ! Helpful, friendly staff and superb facilities. Once the refurbishment is complete (TVs in rooms)..this hotel will be hard to beat. Hope the eventual new extension and Fitness Suite doesn't spoil the 'quiet country house' feel (owner take note !!) Food too, was superb. Staff SO lovely and made time to chat and make us feel...

We stayed for two nights at Carberry Tower, which i purchased through Groupon. With the deal it was great value. The hotel and grounds are beautiful, the staff were very friendly, the breakfast was lovely and overall we had a great couple of days. Although our room was only a basic double it was very pleasant, the bathroom was immaculately... More
