"We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive. The level of service throughout our stay was truly excellent – nothing was too much trouble, and every request was handled promptly and professionally. The room was spotless, comfortable, and well-equipped, making it easy to relax and enjoy our time. The overall atmosphere of the hotel was inviting and well-maintained, which added to the experience. Special thanks to Syed and Rakesh who were very helpful to make our stay more comfortable. Syed went a extra mile and moved us to club room which made our stay even more extra special. Thanks to Syed. They have restaurant with indian menu and food is obsolutely delicious. Also the fries from restaurant are great. This hotel has pool and jacuzzi which is an added benefit if we are staying with kids. My daughter loved it and enjoyed while we stayed at hotel. We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for great service and a comfortable, enjoyable experience. We will definitely be returning in the future!"

The Linton Hotel

6/10 Okay

"The rooms were small but adequate. The staff were welcoming and friendly and the choice at breakfast was good. There was a small amount of parking space at the front of the hotel. It stands at walking distance from the railway station but noise is NOT intrusive. There were a lot of stairs to the top floor of the hotel. There was a poor flow of water in the shower and the water took a long time to get hot, perhaps because of being on the top floor. In general terms, it offered good value for money. Thank you. "

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Whitekirk?

The best time to visit Whitekirk is during the late spring and summer months, from May to September.

During this period, you'll experience the most agreeable weather, with longer daylight hours and generally milder temperatures, making it superb for enjoying the outdoors. Whitekirk is in East Lothian, a part of Scotland known for its beautiful coastline and historic sites, and good weather enhances these experiences significantly. For instance, exploring the nearby beaches like Seacliff or visiting Tantallon Castle is far more pleasant when it's not too cold or wet.

Families often find July and August particularly appealing due to the school holidays, allowing for extended stays and plenty of time to explore local attractions such as the Scottish Seabird Centre in North Berwick, a short drive away. The longer days mean more opportunities for activities like cycling the quiet country lanes or simply relaxing.

Golf enthusiasts, in particular, will find May, June, and September ideal. The weather is typically settled, and the famous golf courses of East Lothian, including those near North Berwick and Muirfield, are in prime condition.
