Melville Escapes

Melville House is a 300 year old Neo Palladian country house with a rich historical background.. The house was built in 1697 by the famous architect James Smith for the first earl of Melville - George Melville The house is set in 16 acres of garden and woodland with numerous walks and places to visit in the surrounding area. We are perfectly positioned between St Andrews (12 miles away), Edinburgh (40 miles away), Perth ( 20 miles away) and Dundee (14 miles away) which allows visitors to make the most of multiple scottish cities and towns in one visit.

Within the grounds of Melville House we have a Georgian garden pavillion named the East Tea House available for rentals of two days or more and accomodating up to 5 people.

We also offer a Mongolian Yurt, located in the woods at the far side of the house which sleeps 4 and offers an element of seclusion and adventure.

The final property we have available is the West Wing of the main house. This sleeps up to 8 people and offers wonderful spacious communal areas with a vaulted kitchen and upstairs living room. The perfect amount of space for a large family to enjoy some time away together.
