Traquair House has four spacious double bedrooms furnished with antique furniture, canopied beds, private bathrooms and central heating, available on a “bed and breakfast” basis.
Traquair Castle dates from 1107 and was used by a long line of Scottish Kings as a base to establish their authority over the surrounding country. In 1461 it became the home of the Earls of Traquair, when James Stewart (2nd son of the Earl of Buchan) was granted an Earldom. To this day, it is still lived in by the descendants of the Maxwell Stuart family and is now well known as the oldest inhabited and most romantic house in Scotland. Part of the house is open to the public from April to October.
For all booking enquiries please book online, or email enquiries@traquair.co.uk or telephone 01896 830323.
We look forward to welcoming you.
The Pink, Blue & White Rooms
The Pink Room is a luxurious suite on the first floor of the house over looking the maze. Originally Lord Traquair’s room, it contains an 18th century trompe l’oeil over the fireplace.
The Blue and White Rooms are in the late 17th century wing of the House, on the ground floor, adjacent to the Lower Drawing Room, where guests can relax in the evening in front of an open fire. The Blue Room looks onto Cupid’s Garden while the White Room has excellent views up to the Bear Gates.
Honeymoon couples are particularly welcome for overnight stays and will receive a complimentary bottle of bubbly.
Breakfast at Traquair
Our excellent Scottish Breakfasts are prepared by our housekeeper, and served in the elegant Still Room.
We pride ourselves on a commitment to using fresh, local produce wherever possible and offer a full cooked breakfast as well as continental alternatives. Breakfasts are served from 7.30am – 9.30am. All dietary requirements can be accommodated – please take a look at the Breakfast Menu below.
