Kirknewton hotels

Excellent service from helpful and charming staff, bathrooms in rooms for disabled are a bit institutional - could they be a bit more elegant? Place to put makeup near sink? A chair? pity that wheelchairs left in hallways were moved - we finally caught on and kept wheelchair in room. Long way to walk for someone who is pushing a wheelchair or for someone who can walk, but has difficulties. Needed to be as close as possible to function rooms. Excellent dinner at reception, good breakfasts, nice walks, great bar, inviting public spaces, nice views, gardens, just a lot of hallways and spaces to navigate when somewhat disabled. Everyone very helpful though.... very warm welcome from gentleman at the front door - not fussy, "over service", which was nice.

I had a perfect stay with friendly, interesting hosts and guests to meet. Beautiful period family home yet so large to include tennis courts and garden facilities and thus offered a hotel-like private space. My fussy vegetarian, gluten free diet was easily catered for. The rural location made running in the forests and farmland before breakfast easy to achieve before my busy days. Only 10 minutes drive away I had family and shopping in Edinburgh city and Livingston Town. The perfect location for me. I'll be back!
