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.

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.

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!

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
