Douneside House is a terrific location for every kind of holiday, whether you want to get away from it all for a few days, or take a longer family break.

It is a place for people of all ages. It doesn't matter if you are in your 20s or 70s we guarantee that you will find lots to do.

The MacRobert Trust helps meet the cost of maintaining the House and Gardens, which means we can offer excellent rates in comparison with hotels and other accommodation.  Furthermore, there has been no tariff increase for this year over the 2009 rates.

Furthermore, our attention to detail and the peace of mind we offer makes the Douneside experience one to remember.

There are excellent leisure facilities on site, delightful countryside surrounding the estate and a large number of attractions on our doorstep.

Hard-pressed mothers and fathers will find plenty to occupy their young ones. They will also appreciate the superb value that Douneside House provides - under 5s stay free and there are special rates for children in full-time education.  We also provide child-friendly facilities.

If you prefer a slower pace, our tranquil gardens and grounds provide a spectacular setting in which to take it easy. As one of our guests remarked recently: "This is truly a little piece of heaven."

There are so many options it is a good idea to call us before you arrange your holiday - we are happy to tell you all you need to know about making the most of Douneside House.
