Great place. Needs TLC!
Went here for my sister's hen weekend with a group of 23 staying. We all had a fab time at the lodge and made use of the facilities we paid for including the spa. It definitely lends itself to a night or two of partying and relaxing. We also took a trip to the pub for a lunch to revive ourselves from the previous night of drinking!
The owner Mike was very helpful and took the time to answer any questions or resolve issues that we had and explained how to work everything.
Only downside to our stay was that not all of the facilities were in full working order and some parts of the decor are in need of repair. The house definitely needs TLC to get it back to its former glory. -
Great Experience
The Owners of this lodge have thought of everything for a perfect stay! It was amazing! We were there for my daughters hen do and we could not have picked anywhere better.

Very Exciting
Amazing place, pictures don't do it justice! Oliver's Travels are really easy to deal with, also got sent a wee free box of goodies before trip. Things like portable charger, selfie stick, universal plug etc.

Birthday weekend
I'd like to thank you for a great time over the weekend. Personally, I had a brilliant birthday and the feedback from the group was that the house was amazing.

Amazing house!
22 of us went to Linton Lodge for my hen weekend in April this year and had a great time. The house was amazing and offered everything we needed. Would highly recommend this house to any large groups

Carly's Hen Weekend July 2015
Absolutely fantastic stay for my hen weekend, the house far exceeded our expectations in terms of size and quality. Cinema room and spa was great fun, and there was plenty space for all 23 of us to sit together. We got a caterer in who cooked us a lovely three-course meal, and beauticians came in to give is various treatments, all in all everyone had a wonderful holiday. We ventured down to the local pub on our last day and the food was lovely. Some of the bedrooms on the ground floor weren't up to the same standard as the ones on the upper floors, and we had a couple of people fall due to the extremely slippy outdoor decking and tiled floor in the spa, but apart from that I couldn't fault it and would definitely return.

The best hen party by far!
We booked Linton Lodge for its location to Edinburgh and the fact it slept so many. It looked amazing on photos but they cannot get across the true wow factor you get when you see this house for real. We were lucky with the weather all weekend and spent most of our time in the hot tubs (which are fantastic) or on the front lawn. We played lawn games through the day, hired a local spa company to give people treatments in the gym, had a movie night..the list is endless. This house made a hen party into a trip I will never forget. It was just perfect. A special thank you to the girl (her name escapes me) who greeted us at the property and the chap who came to fix a broken tv. They were there in minutes and made sure we had all we needed. We did an asda shop which was really handy for when we arrived, although he did get lost up the long road leading to the house.

Wondertful Christmas
We had a week over Christmas at Linton Lodge and it was really wonderful.
We are a family of 11 - 8 adults, 2 toddlers and a baby and I can safely say we ALL had a great time. The house is marvellous - I (grandmother) particularly enjoyed the hot tub as the snow fell. and my 2 1/2 year old grandson had a great time in the gym playing football! We were made to feel very welcome by the owner and the house was beautifully decorated. -
Wonderfully perfect!!!
Wow what a beautiful house this is! Photos can't begin to describe the scale of the size of this place! We spent 3 magically fun filled days here with 20 friends and family., the rooms are huge, all bathrooms beautifully fitted out., hot tubs were toasting and most enjoyable. The whole mansion was spotlessly clean, completely private with ambience and calm lighting inside and out.,
Would Definately return and hope to book again soon., thank you Mike for the welcome and assistance.! -
What a house - amazing!!!
Have just returned from a week-long stay at Linton Lodge with 18 members of my family (aged 3 to 81). This fabulous house is exactly as described and more.....the superb sound system, the in-house cinema and beautiful bedrooms. The two hot tubs were well used morning, afternoon and evening.....so relaxing, the large garden and secluded location of the lodge makes it feel as if there is no-one else around. The south facing balcony was well used as our weather was fantastic...even for October!
Booking, communication and meet & greet with Mike was hassle free and nothing was too much trouble. I would thoroughly recommend this property for a large family holiday, special occasion or just a luxurious chill-out.
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
