Summary: We had a family Christmas, with my siblings, who live abroad, and all of our children. It was a magical experience - a beautiful house and garden, with great facilities. Plenty to do in the local area too. A fantastic few days - thank you!

Summary: the perfect Hogmanay retreat for our group of three families, spanning tweens and teens. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the luxurious yet welcoming atmosphere. The setting is simply magical – tucked away in the serene East Lothian countryside, with beautifully maintained grounds that offered a sense of privacy and tranquility.The interiors are nothing short of stunning. Each room is exquisitely designed with a mix of timeless elegance and modern comfort. The attention to detail is impeccable – plush, high-thread-count bedding and thick, fluffy towels gave a real sense of indulgence. The spacious bedrooms ensured that both the adults and kids had their own sanctuaries to relax in.For a group as diverse as ours, the house had everything we needed. The open-plan kitchen and dining space became the heart of the home, where we cooked, laughed, and shared meals together. The living areas were equally impressive – stylish and cozy, with enough space for board games with the tweens or a quiet moment by the fire with a glass of wine.The kids loved having room to roam, both indoors and outdoors. The teens made the most of the stunning gardens, while the tweens enjoyed exploring and playing in the expansive grounds. Even with all the activities, the house felt calm and organised, thanks to its thoughtful layout and high-end amenities. We can’t wait to return !

Summary: 5-star option for eight gents golfing in East Lothian. Beautiful home, unbelievable property, easy communication with host, great chef options for dinner. This is a first-class option for two foursomes playing in the North Berwick area if four gents are willing to share a room as there are six bedrooms.

Summary: Do not hesitate to stay here .. I am a well travelled consumer and rarely as pleased with accommodations as I was with Leuchie House. This is an exceptionally beautiful property, well maintained, well stocked for every need and very comfortable. We were family from Australia , Canada and UK and thoroughly enjoyed all the games and outdoor areas for soccer etc. it’s a very short drive into town for groceries and supplies and North Berwick is lovely. Hew is a very communicative host and provides all the information you need to enjoy your stay. Stay longer then you plan to .. its worth it.

Summary: A lovely country house for a large family Christmas. With people flying in from around the world it was a perfect environment with lots of room in a very well appointed house which was nicely decorated for the festive season by the hosts.

Summary: This was an amazing experience. The house is spectacular but comfortable, the garden is a dream and the hosts could not have been more accommodating. There were 8 of us (plus two dogs) and there was room to spare—We all had wonderful accommodations both for sleeping and for reading, relaxing and playing games (all together as well as in small groups). The kitchen space was well fitted out and roomy with two distinct working areas and 3 cookers (including an AGA). The bathrooms were plentiful and modern, everything worked and the property was immaculate. As for the location—the property could not be better sited. Half an hour to Edinburgh by train, a short walk or drive into North Berwick (a charming town with great shopping and restaurants), lots of golfing and hiking options with lots of great day trip options. Wonderful experience! Thank you Hew and Jamie for sharing your home with us.

Summary: We are perfectionists who own and live in wonderful homes in Chicago, San Francisco, Boston and Naples. We recommend Leuchie without hesitation. Leuchie’s spaces are generous, inside and out, and the home is beautifully decorated, carefully blending mid-century modern and Scottish manor home styles. Each bedroom is unique and light-filled, and boasts world-class mattresses, pillows and linens. The showers and sinks and fittings throughout are of the highest quality and a pleasure to touch and use, as are the plentiful plush towels. The public rooms — the kitchen with adjoining eating area and family room, the dining room and the gorgeous living room — will accommodate everyone in your party while also providing many quiet nooks for an individual’s peace and quiet. All rooms are generously opened to the landscape by huge windows, filling the spaces with light and framing beautiful views. The undisputed star of this wonderful show is the enormous walled garden that realizes what everyone imagines as the perfectly balanced Scottish garden. The home is secluded amongst the verdant pastures of East Lothian, only five minutes outside of North Berwick, and fifteen from Gullane, both villages boasting some of the world’s finest golf courses, as well as numerous top-notch restaurants and eateries. Communications and arrangements are made with the ancestral owners of the estate and could not have been more timely and spot-on, from start to finish. Excellence all around!

Summary: My friends and i couldn't have scripted a better finish to our 17 day trip. The home and property are so beautiful. We were able to enjoy a nice day of golf, come home and cook a meal thanks to the beautiful kitchens then relax and enjoy about just any type of gaming you could ask for. Great atmosphere for fellowship. Jim Moyer
