Carberry Tower Mansion House and Estate

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!

It was like staying in a castle. Lots of historic charm. It was great exploring all of the various rooms. Unfortunately the interior could use some refreshing.

We loved Carberry Tower where it is located in the picturesque countryside. The History & culture is very inspiring. We would love to stay a couple of days next time we visit.

We had a wonderful stay at Carberry Tower. Staff were polite and friendly. The room was clean and well maintained. Breakfast was served 10/10. Staff were also available to reserve taxis for us which was helpful.

Amazing property full of lovely period character. Lots of different public rooms to enjoy. Friendly and helpful staff. Very comfortable bedrooms. Approx 20 minute drive from tram park and ride. Lovely hotel and conveniently located.

Honestly for the money it’s worth staying.

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.

First overnight stay at Carberry. We were kindly upgraded to a suite which was most impressive. Dinner in the Bistro was lovely. We asked for breaded fish rather than done in batter. No problem & it was extremely tasty. Relaxed atmosphere , friendly staff. A hidden gem.

Fabulous estate! Rooms are so beautiful and tastefully decorated. Grounds are gorgeous and you could spend a week here just enjoying the beautiful grounds and restful place to relax.

Great service, great breakfast. Suites are amazing.

Hotel was warm and welcoming. Any issues were quickly resolved by the staff. Thank you in particular to Lynn and Joe who were very friendly and offered us guidance on the best places to visit

Just a great and relaxing experience. Looks of places to relax and read peacefully. Good food and ambience everywhere. The only thing that I didn’t like was the green LED on the exit light above my door was bright and disturbed my rest as i like a dark room to sleep in.. when everything else is so good, something like this tends to stand out unfortunately.

Gorgeous old house. Unique. Lovely surroundings. Nice and quiet. Restaurant food and service excellent. Breakfast service a let down.

Great old place with bags of history! Staff very friendly and attentive. Food was excellent.

Wonderful historic old building with modern amenities. The grounds were stunning! Restaurant served delicious local food and breakfast was a Scottish buffet. Can’t wait to go back.

Lovely stay, beautiful hotel and excellent service from all staff! Lacked a lit mirror dressing area which in a room with only small velux windows made it quite difficult to get ready for our event. No vanity counter in the bathroom either so again difficult to actually get ready. (Rm 314)

Historic property sympathetically restored

Excellent service , food excellent. The Bowes lyon suite was great to stay in. The Exec rooms are a standard room so we upgraded to the suite, great choice. Would definately stay here again, building full of history

friendly staff food was great

This review is based on two recent stays at this hotel in November and December 2024. Both trips were similar with following good and bad points: Good: staff are excellent, friendly and keen to help. The grounds and building are spectacular, especially when decorated for Christmas. Bad: the restaurant food is very average, bordering on bad (depending on what you have). I ordered the beef cheeks for one meal, which was as tough as leather. Another meal i had the burger, which was like a lump of rubber. On the plus side, the breakfast is much better - maybe a different cook? On the whole, I would stay at this hotel again, but would avoid eating at the restaurant.
