Balbirnie House, a luxury A listed Georgian mansion house hotel offering 30 individual bedrooms and suites, elegant spacious public rooms and a spectacular glass roof Orangery restaurant, is superbly centrally located in the heart of Fife. Balbirnie is only 30 minutes from Edinburgh, Dundee and Perth.
Situated within a beautiful 400 acre estate, Balbirnie House is a quite unique multi-award winning country house hotel in Scotland which combines understated luxury with superb service and outstanding value.
“Balbirnie House is easily accessible with or without a car. I would thoroughly recommend taking the First ScotRail train – just 45 minutes from Edinburgh Waverley to Markinch station. By arrangement, a taxi will be there to collect you and whisk you to the hotel 5 minutes away. Balbirnie is a wonderful blend of gracious classic architecture and homely comforts. The tranquil garden setting, beautifully decorated bedrooms and gourmet dining all combine to offer a relaxing haven of peace and quiet - with all the treasures of the Kingdom of Fife to explore on the doorstep.”
