Nestled in 27 acres of woodland in the heart of Dumfries and Galloway in southern Scotland.
Castleburn House Scotland
A SCOTTISH CELEBRATION OF STYLE AND COMFORT
Castleburn House is a Scottish country manor of such style and charm it’s hard to imagine a better venue for a gathering of friends or family. No detail is overlooked in this gorgeous home-from-home in Dumfries and Galloway.
Relax in inviting reception rooms that are washed with colour, complemented by classic, comfortable furniture, from velvet sofas to antique desks. Sit in the library with your favourite book, eat in the dining room with the original, delicately hand-painted wallpaper as your backdrop, and make music on the baby grand in the drawing room. The country-style kitchen has all you need, from the bean-to-cup coffee machine to the bread maker and double air fryer. A catering kitchen is also available if you’re hiring a private chef. The elegant styling and attention to detail carries through to the 11 ensuite bedrooms, one of which is fully accessible, complete with a wet room, on the ground floor.
Outside, explore the four-acre grounds, from the heritage vegetable plot to the secret summer garden, admiring over 40 years of dedicated work from the same head gardener. The estate extends to 27 acres of mixed woodland which you are free to roam, before perhaps retiring to the patio for afternoon drinks and a barbecue.
Back inside, flop into sofas around a board game or set up the snooker table in the games room. Alternatively unwind in the sauna. There is also a treatment room, so you can enjoy in-home spa treatments from recommended therapists.
From the moment you step into the spacious entrance hall, you know that Castleburn House is special, and there’s a friendly team on hand too, to ensure your stay is everything you want it to be.
