Family Celebration
The venue is superb and everyone from the children to adults and older members loved it. Plenty of space to relax and to party and very well equipped. The host Susan could not have been more helpful. We’ll be back.

Scotland Visit
We were a group of 22 friends and family. We stayed at Carlogie House from August 1 to August 10 and could not have been happier. When we arrived by bus from Glasgow airport Susan was at the house to meet us. She gave us a tour of the house so we would be familiar with everything. The location of this house is perfect. It is a little under a mile and a half from the center of town which is a short distance to the beach, train station and Carnoustie Golf Links. Our group definitely enjoyed walking to town on our free day. We hired Braw Tours and had 5 days touring the area including Edinburgh, St Andrews, many castles and even Kingsbarn whiskey distillery. One of the highlights for us was our catering crew, Kirries Dumpling, Janet, Debbie and the girls were fantastic providing breakfast and lunch everyday. We highly recommend them, very reasonable rates and excellent food. The house was fantastic, we were able to assign room ahead of arrive as each room has it’s own name. Everything provided was utilized. The game room with pool table, hot tubs everyday, the bar in use every night, washer and dryer were a big help. The dining room is spectacular. Susan was available to help with any problems. Our visit was super and we would definitely return! Thanks Susan for providing us with a wonderful vacation!

Three-generation family reunion from six US states..
We had been planning a family reunion in Scotland for several years and finally found a beautiful location that would house all 24 of us comfortably. Everything about this house was wonderful. A lovely walk to the train, pubs, downtown Carnoustie, a beautiful beach, and marvelous playground complete with zipline for the children. The hostess, Susan, was accomodating in every regard and aided us in our preparations prior to our visit. The beautiful grounds provided a perfect venue for a falconry demonstration that was one of the many highlights of our visit. Carlogie House was a home away from home for our family of all ages and an experience we will always remember! Thank you so much, Susan!

Our group of 24 included family members, friends, and some relative strangers - the set up of the home allowed us private spaces and lots of opportunity for group bonding! We left life-long brothers/sisters. Carlogie House had all you need and more for a group experience. Susan, the host, is amazing and super attentive to all needs. Thank you!!

Lovely stay in Carnoustie
The Carlogie House was a great place for a gathering of family and friends for a holiday. There is plenty of common space to gather, and space for privacy if desired. The rooms were beautiful. Susan was a wonderful hostess. It is an easy 15-20 min walk to town and the townspeople were very friendly. Perfect holiday!

We could not rave more about this property. We traveled to Scotland for a friend's 40th birthday and had a wonderful time. Susan was very responsive and reached out prior to our arrival, was there at arrival to help us get situated and explain any details. The home was clean, well-stocked and just as pictured. We were even able to coordinate to have groceries stocked prior to arrival. We highly recommend!

My family and I stayed at this stunning property for a week. We arrived Monday and had our wedding on the Saturday. This property had EVERYTHING you could need for a small intimate wedding. Great facilities, wonderful location and the perfect hostess. I will forever grateful to Susan and Victoria (wedding planner) for everything they did to make my wedding day so special and the opportunity to spend some quality time with my family.

We traveled from Canada as a group and this house had everything we needed. Such a perfect space.
Susan has been wonderful at every step of the way. She was there to great us and walk through the space, and checked in on us periodically via email to make sure we did not want for anything. The property was everything and more. I can't recommend this space enough. We traveled with several families for our wedding, and the space held the group so well. Each bedroom having its own amenities was perfect. The hottubs were a hit, and we're well maintained, as were the grounds. We had several cooks in the kitchen at any given time; this space was made for entertaining! With 3 different refrigeration spaces, there was ample space for a weeks worth of groceries. Again, this stay was a dream, I can only hope we find a reason to stay again. Thank you Susan from our family and friends! Richard & April Petrie

I booked the property in 2020 for Christmas and the level of details that went into making the property look amazing for Christmas was above and beyond what I hoped for. Susan was the most accommodating person, went above and beyond for us and the property was absolutely stunning.

Golf trip in Scotland
There were 12 of us staying at Carlogie House and playing golf in the area. We could not have asked for the most perfect base for our trip. Plenty of space for all of us and the combination of hot tubs, pool room, bar area, large kitchen, conservatory and living room with fire meant there was always somewhere for small groups to get together and talk nonsense for a few hours. Brilliant property.
