Turnhouse Apartment | Craigiehall Temple - historic property built 1759

1 Bedroom Apartment in Turnhouse, Edinburgh

Make you trip to Edinburgh truly memorable with a stay at Craigiehall Temple. Built in 1759 and situated in its own grounds on a former part of the Craigiehall Estate, the property is Grade A listed for its stunning portico displaying the arms of the 1st Marquess of Annandale. A plaque on the wall carries a quote from Horace: "Dum Iicet in rebus jucundis vive beatus", "Live happy while you can among joyful things". We hope that a stay at the Temple will deliver this experience and stay true to this vision.
The Temple has a castle-like feel to it and is spread across two floors. There's a sumptuous living space on the ground floor, featuring a large wood burner, elegant leather furnishings, a dining table and a cabinet. Everything you need to light the wood burners is provided free of charge for your convenience. A range of standing lamps and candles provide fantastic atmospheric lighting.
On the upper floor, there's a large bedroom containing an emperor-sized bed beneath a dramatic overhead oculus inscribed with Latin text and a further wood burner. There's a full bathroom on the upper floor with a power shower.
The property does not have a kitchen, but we provide crockery, cutlery, glasses, cups and mugs, a large fridge, a toaster, a coffee maker and kettles on both floors. Tea, coffee and milk are provided.
In addition to the wood burners, the Temple has central heating and additional fan heaters that can warm up the property rapidly in the winter months.

Summary: We really enjoyed it! I do wish we would’ve gotten the arrival instructions sooner so that we would’ve avoided the road closure and subsequent traffic but everything else was very nice! Thank you for a wonderful stay!
