This 15th-century castle dates back to Mary, Queen of Scots, and is set in 40 acres of stunning parkland. Edinburgh city centre is 8 miles from Carberry Tower Mansion House and Estate.

Rooms at the magnificent Carberry Tower Mansion House are all unique and traditional in style. Each also comes with a work desk and facilities for making tea and coffee.

This castle is spectacular. You’re not just getting a bedroom, you’re getting access to magnificent hallways with tapestries, stained glass windows and armour. You can sit in the stunning music room, library, snug and other historic rooms. The views from the bedrooms are spectacular (ours overlooked the walled garden). The grounds are gorgeous, peaceful and full of cute rabbits. The complementary breakfast was delicious and even included haggis which was exciting for us foreign visitors.

    We had never tried "glamping" before, so thought this might be and adventure, and it was. Quiet nights, starry skies, countryside views in the morning. A walk around a field and a river at the bottom, all on your doorstep. Nicola was very nice and provided milk for the first evening. There was a microwave, which we used. It was an adventure, but two nights was enough for us.

    Beautiful views, peaceful farm close enough to supermarkets, pubs, and Edinburgh. Our host Nicola was very quick to attend to a couple of little issues we had as we didn't know how to use the tv or the cook top but Nicola was on the spot straight away and walked us through it. An excellent host. Highly recommend this place

    The pod was great. Clean, had everything we needed. We were looking a for a quiet place with an easy 10min drive that had Tescos and train station to Edinburgh. Fantastic. You have to take into account, it is a pod - it's cosy and lovely. Nicola, the host, was incredibly helpful and friendly. Nothing was a bother. Highly recommend.

    We liked absolutely everything, The hosts are perfect, the view just the same. Very comfortable and lovely stay. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The Pods are so peaceful and therapeutic. There is everything you need, not far from towns and attractions if wanting to travel away from the farm, but even if you wanted a little peaceful gateway this is an actual gem of a stay.
