    We had the most incredible stay at Gilmerton House for my sister’s hen weekend and honestly couldn’t have asked for anything better! From the very start, Graham’s communication was next level, he was always available, helpful, and made everything so easy to organise, which took all the stress out of planning for us. Graham was also on hand throughout the weekend itself to make sure we had everything we needed, which made such a difference and really added to the experience. He even shared a lovely 5k running route for the runners in our group, such a thoughtful touch that didn’t go unnoticed. The house itself is absolutely outstanding. We’ve stayed in several large group properties over the years, but Gilmerton House is on another level entirely. The standard throughout is exceptional, every room felt thoughtfully designed, comfortable, and versatile for a big group celebration. The attention to detail in the house is just beautiful. Everything is so stylish, and the interior design is exquisite. You can tell so much care has gone into every space. The new garden rooms were fabulous and such a perfect option for anyone who wanted a little step away from the hustle and bustle while still being part of the weekend. Unlike many houses of this age and size, heating was absolutely not an issue. The house was warm and comfortable throughout, and the open fires being lit and tended to across the weekend made it feel extra special and welcoming. As foodies, the kitchen is always an important factor. The beautiful kitchen was brilliantly equipped with plenty of glassware, crockery, and everything we needed, which made hosting meals and drinks together effortless. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The whole place just oozes hospitality, warmth, and quality. It was the perfect setting for such a special weekend and created memories we’ll all treasure. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gilmerton House and are looking for an excuse to return!

    Phenomenal property in the heart of East Lothian, offering a high end experience on an exclusive use basis. Gilmerton House is exceptional and will have particular appeal to high end golf groups who are looking for a unique experience. Given it's central location with easy access to some of Scotland's finest links courses, Gilmerton offers a great opportunity for golfing group's of couples, men or women to enjoy a luxurious private residence, with superb dining, a private driving range and 12 very well appointed bedrooms to choose from. I personally stayed at Gilmerton a few weeks ago and I cannot say enough good things about the experience!
