Had an unforgettable weekend at the Moffat Mansion for a stag party. The house and the grounds were absolutely stunning and the owners were top class, lovely people who take great care of their property and their guests. Would love to go back and do it all again. Couldn't recommend enough. Thanks for everything!
Sonya
When looking for large houses to accommodate our annual holiday of 14 family members, aged from early twenties to over 80 years, our 'must haves' are enough bedrooms/bathrooms, games/activities, space for personal chilling, scenic location with good walks nearby and close to a pub/shops. Moffat Mansion ticked all the boxes, with the added bonus of Read morethe owners being very helpful and welcoming. Would recommend. Hide
Malcolm

Rosalind
We have just spent our annual family holiday (6 adults, 7 children plus dog) at this awesome property! The space both inside and out is fantastic. The original features, traditional decor and furnishings create a great sense of the history of the house. It is fantastically equipped and the cooks all enjoyed the AGA cooking experience which was a fi rst and added to the holiday fun. The owner gave us a warm welcome and is very contactable at all times. We all absolutely loved our stay here!
Emylia
I booked the house for a family gathering and wedding ceremony as me and my husband got married during covid and didn't get to have our family there at the time. The house was so perfect for the 16 of us, we stayed a week and I don't think anyone will forget it! Our hosts were so friendly and helpful, they had everything thought out and it was all made very easy for us. We are so thankful to have stayed in such a beautiful place, words cannot give it enough credit! I hope we get to go again!
Michael
What a fantastic mansion! Stayed here with 15 people & two dogs and absolutely loved it. Such a great location, close to Moffat for cafes and plenty of walking routes nearby. The house was brilliant with plenty of space, bedding & towels, crockery & glasses and lots of games for the kids to play outside in the big garden as well as inside too. Woul d definitely love to come back again!

Lots of space for multiple families. All rooms are a good size. Hosts were very helpful and nice. Lovely surroundings. Can't fault it.
Daisy
Fantastic weekend stay at Moffat Mansion. The owners have really thought of everything and we're incredibly accomodating and welcoming. The house is fantastic and so much room for all 15 guests and the outdoor area is great with the large lawn and seating area/hot tub. Would highly recommend staying here
Anne
Absolutely fantastic big cottage.. Hosts were great For a group of 16 there was plenty of room even to have space to yourself if needed. Weather was fantastic when we were there so spent a lot of time outside and in the hot tub. What a lovely house this would be for a family Xmas break, we could visualise it all done up. I would certainly use this cottage again...brilliant xx
Mandy
The house is beautiful and has many attractive features. Suzanne was lovely and helpful. Although very large the home has a very comfortable and homely feel to it. We had a lovely time. Thanks
Pia
The accommodation was perfect. Looked like a house in the 18th century with some modern elements. The whole house was decorated for Christmas. Super lovely. We had a great time with our family.
Leah
This is a beautiful big house with great big rooms and plenty of space for everyone. It is clean and comfortable. The balance between immaculate and comfortable has been struck very well making it truly like a home from home. The main drawing room and massive dining table ensure easy communal time. The big hot tub is really fabulous too, easily fit s 7-8 people, maybe more if you squeeze in. The hosts are super lovely down to earth people who were friendly, chatty and very accomodating. 10/10
Paul
Lovely house and area would definitely recommend staying

What a fantastic place. The interior is quirky and full of character. Lots of space and teh facilities are wonderful. The bedrooms are spacious, unique and full of character. The dining room is luxurious, the snooker table finished it off!. Outside space is superb, with putting and croquet on site, along with nice walks around the pond and huge gar dens. The river, with fishing rights, is a great bonus and well worth a stroll along! overall antastic experience. Thoroughly recommend!
Anne
Had a lovely time at Moffat Mansion, everything you need for a relaxing time
Margaret
We loved the house so much we wanted to book it for Christmas but it was already booked
Linda
We had the pleasure to stay at Moffat Mansion for a week. This is a beautiful house in stunning grounds but if you want modern this is not for you. There are so many rooms and bedrooms it takes awhile to find your way around. We felt at home from the onset and our four grandchildren loved the garden to play and run around in. The plumbing is a chal lenge and showers need to be taken in turn but this did not detract from the beauty of this house. The hot tub and games rooms were excellent.
Pamela
Our family shared a very pleasant get together and Moffat Mansion was an ideal choice. It is fully equipped with everything you need. I would highly recommend.
Kelsey
Couldnt recommend more, the owners are accommodating and friendly. Communication was great. The location is beautiful and the house is stunning. We are looking to plan another visit already
Isabel
What a wonderful time we all had here in Moffat Mansion as a family. We wanted for nothing as everything is amazingly equipped in every room. Owners were so lovely, always on ha d if we needed anything which we didnt . Particular highlight was the hot tub. I would highly recommend this mansion for family gatherings was also so so spotless with all COVID guidelines adhered to. Thank you everyone for such a great week here in the mansion.
Mhairi
Honestly can not rate this rental high enough! The house was huge and fully equipped with everything and anything you could ever need. Photos do not do this place justice!!! The owners where fantastic, very helpful and just the other end of the phone anytime we needed. We held Christmas Dinner for 16 adults and went down a treat. Hot tub was large and very good. The pool table was a fantastic addition. The rooms where very large. We will deffinetly be back! Was a fantastic adults weekend away.
Sonia
