Lovely
I stayed here with my extended family, and we all had a really nice time. Lots of space and the garden was great. It was the middle of winter, so it was quite cold, which was fine, but you have to go outside on the balcony to access the toilets and bathrooms. This isn’t clear on the property listing, so something to consider if you are going to stay in winter. The house could do with a bit of attention, but nothing major. It’s missing a few basic things like a corkscrew, hairdryer, and enough firewood. Several appliances in the kitchen didn’t work, batteries in the remote were flat, things like that. It is old with peeling paint and a few quirks, but not uncomfortable and quite charming. Overall a really lovely weekend.

A Great Stay
I stayed here with a group of friends for our annual holiday. The place has everything you could want for a large group; ample rooms for people to sleep, a huge kitchen with multiple fridges, a pool, 4 acres of manicured lawn, and an undercover courtyard(which was especially convenient as it rained for the majority of the time were there). I would definitely stay here again if the opportunity presented itself.

Big Family Stay
Great venue for a large group. Definitely a sense of history staying in such an old pub. Grounds large and attractive. The surrounding neighbourhood had no amenities and is a little isolated. We were attending a wedding so this was not a problem for us.

Friends weekend away
Abernethy house was perfect for our weekend away. We all had our own room and there were plenty of different areas to hang out and relax throughout the property. The pool was a game changer and made the stay all the more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend to friends and family

Dual birthday celebrations
Hosted a combined 30th & 60th birthday celebrations. Venue was great and really helped everyone relax and get in the party mood. Beds were comfy, kitchen facilities were excellent and the formal dining and courtyard area really helped with our theme night.

Perfect venue for large group
Loved staying at Abernethy House. A family group of 20 people for a post xmas get-together and we chose the perfect location. Loved having the pool and our own 'beer garden'. Will definitely re-visit.
