A Luxury Private Retreat

ilmerton House is a handsome Grade 1 listed Georgian Mansion situated in the heart of East Lothian, one of Scotland's most picturesque counties. The estate comprises of one thousand acres of which 100 acres are woodlands and walks.

Gilmerton House is not a hotel but a magnificent home owned by the Kinloch family, whose ancestors have lived there for twelve generations. They have now opened its doors to welcome private parties of people looking to take over the house as a relaxing retreat in the country combined with the luxurious atmosphere of times gone by.

Sir David Kinloch, Lady Maureen Kinloch and their team invite you to experience this atmosphere and will provide you with all that would be expected from a fine top class hotel but with an unusual touch of privacy one could only find in one's own home.

The Drawing Rooms are warm and inviting with patios and balcony overlooking the gardens and parkland. Both rooms are the perfect retreats for a leisurely afternoon tea or drinks on a warm, summer evening.

The Music Room, one of the finest rooms of its age in Scotland, was designed as a library and completely surrounded with wood panelling that has never been painted and a fine ceiling decorated with Rococo swirls. This is a room with great atmosphere, ideal for banquets or large dinner parties of up to 40 guests.

The Dining Room, an elegant room with views over parkland and gardens, can cater for 18 guests.
