Panoramica

Balbirnie è un lussuoso hotel in stile georgiano, situato nella magnifica campagna di un'area di 400 acri nei pressi di Markinch, nel cuore del Fife. Classificato AA 4 stelle per 17 anni, il Balbirnie è uno dei 200 migliori hotel del Regno Unito.

L'hotel è situato in una posizione superba, proprio tra Edimburgo e St. Andrews, a breve distanza dalla splendida costa orientale della Scozia, con i suoi numerosi e pittoreschi villaggi di pescatori. Edimburgo dista solo 22 km e lo splendido scenario del Perthshire è facilmente raggiungibile in auto, mentre la vivace città di Glasgow è a poco più di un'ora da Balbirnie.

Aperto come hotel 25 anni fa, il Balbirnie House è oggi di proprietà privata e gestito personalmente, ed è ampiamente riconosciuto come uno degli hotel di lusso più raffinati al mondo, che unisce lusso discreto, servizio eccezionale e un valore eccellente.

Offre 31 camere da letto dal design personalizzato, ognuna unica nel suo stile e carattere. Per un soggiorno speciale, potrete scegliere una delle camere deluxe o suite, molte delle quali sono spaziose, con ampi letti confortevoli e una magnifica vista sui giardini. Le camere da letto sono distribuite sui tre piani dell'originale casa padronale, con diverse camere al piano terra per gli ospiti che preferiscono non salire le scale. È inoltre disponibile una camera doppia al piano terra, accessibile alle sedie a rotelle.


Storia

Balbirnie House dates back to 1777, having been commissioned by The Balfour family who was a very influential agricultural and coal mining family at the time.

The house was originally designed by the architect John Nisbet in 1777 and was then extended by Robert Crichton in 1815, and is now listed as Grade A of architectural and historical importance, most probably built as one of the largest and earliest Grecian style houses in Scotland.

Cibo & bevande

The hotel has a choice of dining options, enjoy the Bistro created from the old kitchens of the house. The Bistro offers casual dining, fantastic value, delicious and authentic Bistro cooking. Or for more formal dining why not sample The Orangery which offers classic Scotland on a plate, and has become one of Fife’s most special destination restaurants. All dishes priced individually allowing you to choose as you wish.

Voted one of Scotland's five most romantic restaurants by The Scotsman newspaper and past recipient Scotland's Hotel Restaurant of the Year.

The Chef's Room is a totally unique private room for up to 6 guests, located directly alongside the main hot kitchen plating area with a full-length mirror to watch the Chefs at work (one-way glass, they can’t see you!). The Tasting Room can be booked just like a normal restaurant table but certainly offers something a bit different for a night out to remember! 

Enjoy after afternoon picnic - should you wish to explore the surrounding countryside, the hotel's are delighted to provide a range of picnic hampers to take with you.

Indulge in a traditional cream tea available at Balbirnie between 3-5pm daily.
