Luxury Self-Catering Properties in East Lothian, Scotland
Winton Estate’s large, luxury, self-catering country houses exude comfort, style and tranquility. Our three unique self catering properties are available on a flexible basis for full weeks, long weekends, or weekday short breaks.
Please note that due to Winton Castle’s nature as a private home & exclusive-use events venue, guests staying at our self-catering properties do not have access to the castle or gardens unless by prior appointment. There are extensive public footpaths on the wider estate, maps for which can be provided. Please contact us for more information.

If you have a very large group, you can hire two or more properties and we may be able to offer you a multi-hire discount, depending on availability & season, please email enquiries@wintoncastle.co.uk for details.
Please click on the property pictures below for more information on each of our three country properties.
All of our self-catering properties are located on Winton Estate just outside Edinburgh in beautiful East Lothian countryside, within walking distance (up to 30 minutes) or a short drive from the castle.
These country houses can also be hired alongside Winton Castle, which sleeps up to a further 16 guests over 8 bedrooms and provides facilities for large dinners, birthday parties, meetings and conferences and weddings and in historic splendour. Please note the Castle is available for catered exclusive use, not for self-catered hire.
We can also lay on a range of entertaining activities (please book in advance). So, why not try Off-Road Driving, Whisky Tasting, or a mini Highland Games?
The self-catering country houses are close to 20 excellent golf courses, sweeping sandy beaches, fishing, sailing, horse riding, hill walking, Musselburgh Racecourse, Glenkinchie Distillery, the Scottish Seabird Centre and, of course, the cultural city of Edinburgh itself.

What’s more, the owners of Winton Estate have played an important role in developing East Lothian’s most famous golf courses because their lands originally included Muirfield, Archerfield and Gullane, still East Lothian’s world famous links courses.
East Lothian, aptly known as ‘Scotland’s Golf Coast’, boasts some of the best links and inland golf courses in the world. There are 22 excellent golf courses within 20 minutes drive of Winton Castle, including North Berwick, Gullane, Dunbar, Craigielaw, Royal Musselburgh (the oldest playing golf course in the world) and Longniddry.
