This is a very interesting place to stay. Now the reason I gave it 5 stars is because of the service. Barbara Blackborne is great and the lady that makes breakfasts, though quiet was terrific. The time of year was dreadful though. I would not recommend winter months here only because it is very cold in this big house. The... More

My wife and I stayed here one night, with our 32 year old daughter. The house has some parts of it that date back 400 years! It is quite the place. As a number of other reviewers have previously noted: it is quiet! It sits back off the main road some distance, along a farm lane that is used only... More

Stayed here for one night, had a very nice room as you really can imagine, very friendly landlords in a very quiet surronding. Very good breakfast with a good variety of choices, recommended for families travelling with children, good location to travel to Edinburgh and surrondings (however you need a car)

Business trip stay. Lovely place. warm & welcoming. Nice room, comfy bed. Great breakfast. Ticked all the boxes. Such a nice change from your Premier Inn or Travelodge. Will use again.

Great views, quiet charm, long walks,historic location peace & quiet log fires and friendly atmosphere Convenient for Falkirk & Edinburgh breaks. Ideal romantic get away Sounds too good to be true- maybe it is, which is why it does... More

A different class from the rest, a stunning building that looks right over the River Forth and sits on land of its own away from the noisy nightlife. The hosts at Carriden house are just A1, you could not meet nicer people. The rooms are honest and clean , and that is all i ask from any hotel. Good breakfast.... More

We have been traveling to Scotland every year since 1995 and for the past few years, we have stayed at the Carriden House, either at the beginning or the end of the trip. And, we always look forward to our next visit. We look for upscale accommodations, but with history and character. The Carriden House is perfect. It is a... More

We stayed at the Carriden as part of a family vacation. The place was easy to find given the map on their website, but the access road is a bit on the poorly maintained side. That aside, once you are there, you'll find Carriden House an interesting place. It's a huge house at a lovely location. You can walk down... More

My wife and I stayed here June 26, 2008 as part of our driving vacation through Scotland. The room was very nicely decorated and had lovely views. The grounds are nice to walk through with nice garden areas. There is an interesting overgrown cemetery next to it which was fascinating to walk through and reflect. The breakfast was very good,...

My husband and I stayed at Carriden House our last two nights in Scotland. As others have stated, it was somewhat hard to find (my GPS was confused!) but eventually we found the place and never had a problem getting back. We stayed in the 4 poster room which was large and lovely. It was a bit chilly but we... More
