A stunning Georgian Country House built in 1806, this former manse, and until her death, home to Frances Shand Kydd, mother of Diana, Princess of Wales. It is a magnificent Georgian building, beautifully modernised while retaining old-world charm. 6 comfortable bedrooms with 5 bathrooms and a downstairs loo, there is space for 12 adults, and 2 children. With a drawing room with open fire and dual aspect, a tv room with 50" tv and freeview and dvds, a spacious dining/kitchen with AGA and electric hob, a bright and airy dining conservatory and a formal dining room to seat 14, there is ample space for families. Centrally heated, open-fire, and AGA, together with electric blankets on all beds ensure a warm stay, whatever the weather. The house sits in an acre of walled garden, and surrounded by hundreds of acres of grazing land. There is a terrace with BBQ, a garden with trampoline and swings, and we have a local Hot Tub hirer who will supply a hot tub for the duration of your stay. Please let me know your requirements. We have available a 6m x 12m marqee for hire and can provide lighting and tables and chairs for your party. The marquee can seat up to 80 persons for dining.

A beautiful house, perfect for a gathering of old friends. Everything worked well, the bedrooms were very comfortable and our host was most welcoming. Our only regret, that the weather wasn’t good enough to properly enjoy the garden!

The property exceeded our expectations; it was clean, all the equipment we needed was available and in very good condition. The local village, Falkland, is lovely and within easy walking distance from the house, it also has a great selection of cafe's etc. We found a larger selection of food shops in Glenrothes which is about a 10 minute drive away. All in all, a great stay, thank you Duncan.

Many thanks for coming to stay, and delighted that everything was perfect for you! I am sorry that you felt that the AGA with 2 ovens, each 350mm wide, 255mm high and 495mm deep wasn't big enough!! I've cooked Christmas dinner for 18 in it, but I guess it just takes some getting used to! Each time I entered I was 'let in' on knocking, but apologies if my bringing an extra chair for your party interrupted you. Glad that the weather stayed fair for your stay, and we look forward to your return. Kind regards Duncan

The property was lovely and worked very well for our group of 15. Duncan was an accommodating host who set up an extra bed in the TV room, which was greatly appreciated. We very much enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home and loved the proximity to the village.One thing that made our stay difficult was the extensive cleaning requirements upon departure as well as the strong focus on sorting the garbage and recycling perfectly. This added stress to what was supposed to be a relaxing family time. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay very much.

Hi Devon and many thanks for coming to stay. We are sorry that stripping the beds and a quick wipe around were difficult for you as you had to leave at 0800hrs for a flight home. We sent Terms of Letting and Arrival Times and Procedures 10 days prior to your arrival and offered housekeeping daily, every second day, 3 times a week etc. so that you weren't rushed when leaving. If you had requested this service then we would have happily supplied it. Regarding recycling. We asked you to disseminate the information on the kitchen table which explained which bin was for tins and plastic, cardboard and paper, and for non-recyclable rubbish. Our bin collectors will not empty the bins if the rubbish is not in the correct bin. I spent an hour sorting the rubbish into the appropriate bin....yuk! I do apologise if the Terms of Letting and information on the kitchen table were unclear. We loved having your party here and do hope that you will come back to stay again. Kind regards Duncan

Fantastic property

Ladywell house was ideal for our 4 day getaway. Loved the spacious rooms and high ceilings. The property is full of history too which makes the stay even more special. Duncan’s a very friendly owner and is extremely responsive throughout the process. The location is fantastic - it’s on the outskirts of Falkland village so very tranquil yet within walking distance to the village. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to returning soon!

Beautiful House in an Equally Beautiful Setting

My friends and I have just returned from a weekend at this Beautiful House that is within walking distance to places to eat/drink we ate at the Stag Inn and the Covenanter Hotel whose food and service were second to none. We do a weekend away in Scotland once a year and this house certainly didn't disappoint. I would highly recommend this property. Kathleen Glasgow

I booked the house for a family party. The house is definitely a party house. We had the most fabulous time. There was 11 staying and on party day there was 19. Plenty of room for us all. The garden is big and well kept and some fun was had outside too. Duncan was a very personable host and was on hand to help. A couple of niggles were the Wi-Fi which we could not get to work. Duncan did try to sort it but couldn’t. The other is the the bin situation. For such a large party there was a lot of recycling- the bins were full. We brought a few black bags home with us. All in all I would highly recommend the house. We did walk into Falkland, very quaint and busy with tourists - as we were. Thank you Duncan.

Hi and many thanks for your review. The showers are 80 x 80 and are not very large, but fairly standard. If it were possible to replace with large ones then we would probably replace. The king bed in Diana is 5 years old and used about 200 nights a year, the Sealy Orthopedic mattresses that we use are top quality and medium firm. We usually replace mattresses every 8 years in line with recommendations, but will check the one in Diana when I am in next week. Thanks so much for your feedback. Having spoken before your departure, we are delighted that you loved your stay, and look forward to your return next year. Kind regards. Duncan

Great house in a great location

The property was perfect for a family celebration. Plenty of room for people to have their own space if required. Private chef "Nelson" from Italba-dining.com provided a superb menu and meal for the Saturday evening. Ladywell House is a large elegant house with a large dog friendly garden and tremendous views. Located just on the outskirts of Falkland which is full of charm and character with plenty to see as well as lovely walks. Duncan made everyone very welcome and was on hand if required.

Beautiful and comfortable

We had a wonderful four night stay in such a beautiful home. As a group of what should have been 11, but two cancelled at short notice, it was a delight to find somewhere to accommodate all of us in such comfort and with ample bathroom facilities. A grand salon accommodated everyone in the evening, and there are other places to tuck away when wanted. I thoroughly enjoyed the en suite bath in the Shand Kydd room. Plenty of cutlery, china and cooking utensils, although the quiche chef had to use a wine bottle in place of a rolling pin. A resounding cheer from us all for Ladywell House.

What a beautiful house with so much history! This 3 story house has lots of stairs, 6 spacious bedrooms, 5 bathrooms (3 with standing showers). The 3rd floor bedrooms can get warm in the summer time. Halfway up the first flight of stairs is a bathroom. The kitchen stove was a novelty for us, always hit and ready (a little hard to judge the timing for baking). A washing machine but hang drying all your cloths. And such a relaxing place inside or out enjoy your time. My neice took a couple of pictures here for her graduation photos, and they turned out so perdectly! There was also a glass room that gave us a beautiful view of the sunsets! We just loved the house! The host, Duncan, was close by, and ready to help us when we needed it.And the village of Falkland was really amazing! We loved the Lomond Tearoom and Chocolate shop! Also, the lady at Balgonie Kilts was so friendly and helpful! The Maspie Den hike was very relaxing and great for all ages! You can even purchase stamps for postcards at the store on the main street, and mail them there. We are very happy with our experiences here at Ladywell, and will treasure them always.

90th birthday celebration attended by 4 generations

Ladywell House is a large house full of character, well furnished and exceptionally equiped for a large gathering. We really enjoyed the lovely furnished drawing room in the evenings and spent lots of time in the conservatory and kitchen (the AGA was a huge hit) and the large gardens were great for our dogs. The stairs were a bit of a challenge for our older family members but that was to be expected. We loved visited old haunts in the village, the house is just a 15 minute stroll from the centre. There was a bit of confusion initially about the listing for The Steading and it looked like a hot tub was included.in the booking but that was quickly cleared up by Duncan through correspondence. We booked the latter through fifehottub hire, who were very efficient.The owner Duncan lives in the adjacent house and was always helpful, welcoming and available if any questions arose. It was mentioned by family that a second vacuum cleaner may be useful as it is a large house to clean on the final morning with the one provided, especially if you have had dogs with you.The older generations were very impressed with the history of the house and it added a touch of uniqueness to the experience.

Accommodation, location and communication work the owner, ` par excellence'

From the time of booking two years ago, until the end of our 3 nights stay, the owner Duncan could not have been more helpful, considerate and supportive. Our thanks to him for a wonderful stay! My family and I were attending a wedding in Cupar , so we chose Ladywell House for its location, size and amenities and were not disappointed!. It is quite simply awesome. The property has 6 double +1 bedrooms, 3 en suite shower rooms, and 2 beautifully presented separate bathrooms as well as a large dining room and two sitting rooms/ tv / lounges. The house is impressively spacious, comfortable and has great historic interest. There is a lovely conservatory where one can dine together or simply enjoy morning coffee overlooking the garden and beautiful scenery beyond. The enclosed, very private, walled garden is beautifully maintained with mature trees and flower borders. There is also a large outdoor patio dining/ seating area which we thoroughly enjoyed given the fine weather!. As we also had small dogs with us, the large lawn and privacy that the walled garden afforded was particularly welcomed. There are some beautiful walks nearby... not least Falkland Estate, a 4 min drive from Ladywell House; so it is perfectly positioned for those who love Country walks with their dogs . For those who are considering booking with their dogs there is a large kitchen/ utility and separate boot room, as well as the conservatory, so space for pets is more than adequate and our 4 were very content. Although we chose not to allow our dogs into the sitting / dining rooms, this is not prohibited per say... but, allowing pets on any chairs / couches downstairs is, and no pets are permitted upstairs. This is perfectly understandable and acceptable, given the quantity and quality of antique furniture and chairs. I realise I have waxed long with this review but I wanted to do justice to this amazing house! We all just loved it. Thank you again Duncan......we will be back!

Lovely home in a lovely setting!

Duncan's home, Ladywell, was even more wonderful than we had expected -- immaculate, well-appointed, comfortable, inviting, spacious, and simply lovely! We are an extended family of 14, and there were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate us all. The bedding and bath towels were luxurious. The kitchen was well-equipped, and we loved learning how to cook on the AGA, although it was nice to have a second cook top for more variable cooking. Having 2 refrigerators in the kitchen was very helpful, and having two washers to do laundry for so many of us was a bonus. We loved the hang-drying arrangement in the external laundry room. We spent most of our time in the kitchen and the sunny solarium, as we gathered together for snacks and meals. The yard was beautifully landscaped, and the soft, well-manicured lawn was great to play games on. It helped that we had spectacular weather for most of the week! The setting was perfect, beautifully perched up on the hill with a view of the fields and hills beyond and the sheep and cattle farm above. The special town of Falkland was an easy 10-minute walk away, and Duncan even made sure the grass was mowed all along the main road for pedestrian use. Don't miss exploring Falkland and walking through the town to the hiking trail for East Lomond Hill. It is a spectacular and steep hike but well worth the work when you get to the top! (Some of us did it twice!) Also don't miss Falkland Palace, and give yourself several hours, as the docent in each room has a wealth of history and information, and the gardens behind are expansive and glorious. The geographic location is exceptional -- only a 45-minute drive from Edinburgh, and an easy day trip to many destinations, including St. Andrews, Dunnottar Castle and Stonehaven, Doune Castle, Dunblane, Loch Lomond, Kelso, Stirling Castle, Falkirk Wheel and the Kelpies, and much more! Duncan's written house instructions were very detailed and helpful, and he was very responsive to any questions we had. I would love to return to Ladywell if our family decides to gather in Scotland again! Thanks for a wonderful holiday, Duncan!

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: duncan heaton-armstrong

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
Having retired as a tax consultant and stockbroker in 1995 I have since been involved in property letting and running a b&b. I love interaction with guests, and have over the past 19 years enjoyed my guests. I have 4 kids, 2 at University and 2 at school, and enjoy lots of time with my family and the pets.

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

We chose a beautiful location with a stunning house, close to amenities but quiet and peaceful. A great place to bring up children and plenty of walks and beaches nearby

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

10 minutes walk from the village, and only 40 minutes to Edinburgh, and close to St Andrews, Perth and Dundee, and with stunning views and a great climate, Ladywell is the perfect balance of a rural location but not remote from anywhere.
