Burton Lodge Guest House & Spa

I booked the Bothy Lodge as a surprise for my husband’s birthday and was not disappointed. When we arrived the gentleman at the desk was very helpful and took our breakfast orders for the following morning, showed us to the most amazing private lodge and explained he had kindly turned the heating up in the building and the hot tub for our arrival. The mini fridge was stocked with complimentary Prosecco, chocolate and soft drinks - such a lovely touch! I had asked for balloons and chocolates for my husband’s celebrations and these were waiting for us in the lodge. The bathroom is very spacious and luxurious which is a rarity in lodges. This was a pleasant surprise. Inside is a honesty bar which we didn’t use but looked very inviting and cosy. We also opted to not use the pool and spa as we had the hot tub in the lodge, however, the owner offered this to us as addition to our stay. The breakfast was tasty and the hosts could not have been more attentive. We will definitely be back - a hidden gem of tranquility and luxury!

We cannot praise the staff at Burton Lodge enough. They were welcoming from the start and made us feel right at home. From accommodating us being vegan at breakfast (just let them know in advance, we had cereals, soya milk, vegan spreads and vegan sausages as options as well as fruits, jams etc) to being willing subjects for our four year old's new photography hobby, to rescuing us from the pool during a power cut (the whole village went down and they handled it perfectly) - they were just phenomenal. We really want to thank all at Burton Lodge for how at home they made us feel. Our little boy Joseph loved every minute of his stay and is desperate to come and stay here again. The rooms are exactly as they look in the pictures on their site (we stayed in room 2 but also saw room 7 as our son wanted to see the other family room and, as they were with everything else, the staff were accommodating in letting him go see it) so we can say both family rooms are as pictured. Room 2 is in the main building and it's slightly larger with a bath, room 7 is in the annexe and has its own entrance but is smaller and has a walk in shower - both family rooms are lovely so which is better depends on your preferences. The pool/spa is immaculate and because it is primarily done on a timeslot basis (email them times you want in advance) it was fantastic for us as we got to have the pool to ourselves on both occasions we used it. The lounge is very warm, comfortable and relaxing and has an honesty bar with reasonable prices as well as a lovely view out onto the gardens. We booked this stay slightly randomly, having never heard of this guest house or the village in which it resides. We just wanted somewhere peaceful to start the new year and decided it'd be nice to choose somewhere with a pool. This was one of a few options we narrowed it down to and we're so glad this was the one we ended up choosing. This is the happiest we've left any place we've stayed. We simply cannot recommend Burton Lodge highly enough.

What a little gem of a place this is , set in beautiful surroundings this place is such a relaxing place to go. Our room was done to high standard a mixture of old features with a modern twist. The king size bed was so comfortable, the shower was amazing. The tea/ coffee had everything you needed , breakfast was lovely set in a room overlooking some of the garden . All though we didn't go in the swimming pool or spa this is s fab addition to the guest house definitely go in next time . Amazing staff couldn't do enough for us , looking forward to our next visit.

Lovely place, room was nicely furnished and spacious. Breakfast was cooked to perfection and looked onto the lovely garden. We both organised spa treatments, there was plenty of option and it was a really nice addition to our get away. 10/10 would return in the future. Thank you Ian for being very helpful and accommodating

Excellent, excellent, excellent Me and my husband were visiting an uncle and aunty in leven and decided to stay here. The whole lodge, our room and the pool were exceptionally immaculate. Service was excellent from all the staff including the owners Ian & Emma. The breakfast also lush. We will definitely be making a return visit!!!!! Thank yooo “The Wilson’s” from Newcastle

Beautifully clean, spacious and quiet rooms. All with ensuite and tea making facilities. Honesty bar in lounge was a useful addition and owners kindly came down with bottle of wine when we rang them as there was none left. The pool area and spa was enjoyed by my son and his girlfriend. It is situated in a very tranquil part of the village, near a golf course and walking distance to Bert's Pizzeria. Excellent facilities, highly recommend
