What a lovely place to stay, feels not like B&B but home. Friendly personnel, nicely decorated room and spacious clean bathroom. Crieff was one of the in-trasit points of our introductory trip to Scotland and we were extremely please to find such a pearl here! Will definitely come back!

We have been staying at Merlindale for several years, usually twice a year when visiting family in Crieff during March and October. From the first we were made so welcome and feel that we return as friends and not 'residents'. Both Jackie and John make every effort to make our stay comfortable and it is a total pleasure to be...

What a find. Merlindale is an elegant guesthouse within easy driving distance of all the top sights Perth has to offer. On our arrival, late in the afternoon, John welcomed us like family. He even organised for us to eat at the French restaurant next door, also excellent. Our room was extremely comfortable and quiet. Full Scottish breakfast was delicious.... More

Of the more than 80 B&Bs and Guest Houses my wife and I have stayed in in the UK and Ireland over the past 12 years, Merlindale is simply the best!

This was our fourth visit to Merlindale and it just seems to get better and better! Jacky and John are the best hosts and we really now feel we are en famille!

Yet again, my husband and I stayed at merlindale guest house. We absolutely love staying with John and Jacky. Their guest house is first class which would be difficult to match. They are so welcoming and we feel as if we are at home. There is everything there that you could need. Also if there was to be something else,... More

I presented the paperwork and the owner made a support call and confirmed the booking had been made but nothing could be done. The owner was considerate enough to arrange... More

Thoroughly enjoyed a memorable stay at Merlindale. Our room was charming and hosts Jackie and John provided a friendly welcome and excellent service. My wife and I were recommended to stay at Merlindale and we weren't disappointed.

where do we begin..........I write this some two weeks after our anniversary weekend was ruined at Merlindale. We booked to come away on the 21st Sept, to celebrate our Anniversary, unfortunately two days before we were given some worrying results of tests my husband had had, showing a shadow on one of his lungs .Regardless of this we had painted...
