Overall, the property was in good condition and appeared well maintained. Since the check-in process is entirely self-service, I ran into an issue when my key set did not include the main door entrance key. Fortunately, a staff member was available to assist me; otherwise, I would have been locked out. The room had a noticeable moldy smell, and the washroom did not provide any toiletries, which was disappointing. On the positive side, the bed linens and towels were clean, freshly washed, and well presented.

The room was clean. Their were no staff. There was a self check in / check out procedure which was easy to follow. Other more regular guests were helpful. There was tea/coffee facilities in room. Kitchen facilities meant food I'd brought could be prepared. Enjoyable stay.

Great place to stay with kitchen facilities. Room was great and so was the bed, coverings and pillows. Cold room as main heating not on with small heater in room that took the chill off. Water pressure good but getting a hot shower was a challenge but if you tired it right you got one.

Beautiful country estate

This is a nice old estate in the countryside, about 30 mins from Edinburgh. The setting is beautiful, there is a river and forest just a short walk from the estate. Our room (#2) was a okay, the wallpaper was cute and beds were comfy but the wood floor under the carpet needed to be screwed down, it was SO LOUD every time you walked on it. The shared living space was large and nice, the kitchen was huge. Overall, we would stay again!

Kirkhill is the worst place there is no staff at all at the place and no one to assist and property is very far from edinbrugh and no cab will come to this property to pick up because it is very very very far and inside like jungle no lights even in the way to this place, I was to scared to this place and the keys was kept in the locker and the gave us the locker number wrong and we had to call them again to ask the number and the room was not quite good no amenities no neatness it’s a big disaster and I booked for 3nights but I checked in 10pm and I checked out next day morning at 8am as soon as I woke up not suggestive to anybody

The house is beautiful and rooms were quiet and nicely decorated. One negative was that there was no toilet paper in the bathroom, so I had to go shopping. The bed linen was very clean and the room bright, even though it was a basement room. Unfortunately, on the morning of leaving, the fire alarm sounded continually, and although the guests waited outside, there was no staff present to switch off the alarm or check the situation. Other than that, a good place to stay.

Unfortunately this property has seen better days. It’s a deteriorating manor house in serious need of TLC. I wouldn’t recommend for other solo female travelers as my door’s lock was shoddy and there’s no in person staff to check you in and assist you if there’s issues. It was overpriced for what it was and I regret not saying in a Premier Inn nearby that would’ve been cheaper, cleaner and better serviced.
