We arrived at Carriden House midway through our 15 day motor tour of Britain. My wife and I were celebrating our 25th anniversary and Carriden House was to be the highlight, as it appeared enchanting in the adverts. It turned out to be much less. FIRST, let me address the positives. Barbara, the owner and host, is marvelous. She is... More

Old, which we like, well maintained and comfortable with large rooms. Excellent breakfast. Hard to find (down a small dirt road) but well worth it when you arrive. Hostess was very helpful, and we highly recommend it for any type of traveller. Beautiful common area rooms.

We stayed in the family room, very large and comfortable, correct breakfast and wonderful location and building. Do not forget to visit the living room. My daughter played the piano during breakfast ... lovely ! Try to arrive with light as it is easy to miss the main entrance.

We stayed at Carriden House on the first leg of our honeymoon in Scotland (we spent our wedding night here). As there had been a big wedding on the weekend, we had the place to ourselves for the two nights we spent there. The house is old but beautifully maintained. We had room number 5 which had a four-poster bed... More

Enjoyed a one night stay in this historic home. Our room was huge with a double and 2 twins which gave our family of 2 adults and 1 child plenty of room. The bath was spacious although it did not have a stand up shower. Instead there was an old fashioned bath with a hose-type shower head. Worked fine you... More

This is a very interesting place to stay. Now the reason I gave it 5 stars is because of the service. Barbara Blackborne is great and the lady that makes breakfasts, though quiet was terrific. The time of year was dreadful though. I would not recommend winter months here only because it is very cold in this big house. The... More

My wife and I stayed here one night, with our 32 year old daughter. The house has some parts of it that date back 400 years! It is quite the place. As a number of other reviewers have previously noted: it is quiet! It sits back off the main road some distance, along a farm lane that is used only... More

Stayed here for one night, had a very nice room as you really can imagine, very friendly landlords in a very quiet surronding. Very good breakfast with a good variety of choices, recommended for families travelling with children, good location to travel to Edinburgh and surrondings (however you need a car)
