Scotland Visit

We were a group of 22 friends and family. We stayed at Carlogie House from August 1 to August 10 and could not have been happier. When we arrived by bus from Glasgow airport Susan was at the house to meet us. She gave us a tour of the house so we would be familiar with everything. The location of this house is perfect. It is a little under a mile and a half from the center of town which is a short distance to the beach, train station and Carnoustie Golf Links. Our group definitely enjoyed walking to town on our free day. We hired Braw Tours and had 5 days touring the area including Edinburgh, St Andrews, many castles and even Kingsbarn whiskey distillery. One of the highlights for us was our catering crew, Kirries Dumpling, Janet, Debbie and the girls were fantastic providing breakfast and lunch everyday. We highly recommend them, very reasonable rates and excellent food. The house was fantastic, we were able to assign room ahead of arrive as each room has it’s own name. Everything provided was utilized. The game room with pool table, hot tubs everyday, the bar in use every night, washer and dryer were a big help. The dining room is spectacular. Susan was available to help with any problems. Our visit was super and we would definitely return! Thanks Susan for providing us with a wonderful vacation!

Three-generation family reunion from six US states..

We had been planning a family reunion in Scotland for several years and finally found a beautiful location that would house all 24 of us comfortably. Everything about this house was wonderful. A lovely walk to the train, pubs, downtown Carnoustie, a beautiful beach, and marvelous playground complete with zipline for the children. The hostess, Susan, was accomodating in every regard and aided us in our preparations prior to our visit. The beautiful grounds provided a perfect venue for a falconry demonstration that was one of the many highlights of our visit. Carlogie House was a home away from home for our family of all ages and an experience we will always remember! Thank you so much, Susan!

Amazing Stay at Carlogie House

We had a wonderful stay (3 nights) and thoroughly enjoyed the house and grounds. Would highly recommend it as the house was warm and spacious and allowed privacy if anyone in the group wanted it. Thanks Susan!

About the host

Hosted by Susan Burness

As an award winning Architect and Construction Company the renovation of Carlogie House has truly been a labour of love. We are a family business and we are all extremely proud of Carlogie House and all the work from the whole team that was put into refurbishing what was already a truly exceptional house.
We went to view this property in July 2018 and immediately fell in love with the building and the surroundings. Now the works are complete we love welcoming guests to this unique property.

Why they chose this property

Carlogie House is a Victorian Mansion House that has been designed with entertaining in mind. Although packed with traditional features its layout of large open plan spaces makes it ideal for social gatherings and different from the cellular nature of a lot of traditional properties. With a new kitchen in the heart of the social area cooking and catering will be a pleasure. If you have more formal entertaining in mind the magnificent dining room, with separate butler's kitchen, seats 24 and can be laid out for more if required or, if you would rather entertain outside, there is BBQ, dining area, fire pit, seating and 2 hot tubs all within enclosed garden area.

What makes this property unique

Carlogie House has all the original features and romance of a Victorian Country Mansion House with all the facilities and comfort of a fully modernised property, tastefully decorated in contemporary Country House style, the house has been equipped and furnished to ensure it is the ideal location for holidays and celebrations.
All 12 bedrooms are ensuite with the Tummel Bedroom having the second floor all to itself and the luxury bathroom in the Turret.
The layout of the main social space with open plan kitchen, living, dining and bar area has been created to ensure everyone can socialise together. From here you can spill out to the external entertainment space and garden with hot tubs, fire pit, external seating and al fresco dining facilities.
Located within 2 acres of garden ground, it has a distinctly Country House feel, although still within walking distance of shops, restaurants and bars of the famous golfing town of Carnoustie .
Its convenient location makes it easily accessible by road, rail and train and is an ideal touring base for the North East of Scotland.
