9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (6 reviews)
"The rooms themselves were great and the breakfast was delicious. However, there is a shared kitchen which is available to prepare any other meals…it is not in good condition at all and needs some serious TLC if the space is to be offered for guest use. For example the oven is FILTHY, the sink is perpetually full of used, dirty dishes and cutlery/crockery/glasses/cookware all need to be upgraded/replaced. I think the shared space is a great idea, but it has to be drastically improved to reflect...

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Balgowan?
The best area to stay in Balgowan is generally along the R103, which serves as the main route through the heart of the Midlands Meander.

This area is characterised by picturesque farmlands and rolling hills, with a collection of guesthouses, boutique hotels, and country estates dotted along the road and its immediate offshoots. It offers easy access to many artisan shops, restaurants, and attractions that make up the Meander. You'll find a relaxed pace here, superb for unwinding.

Couples looking for a romantic escape often find properties located slightly off the R103 particularly appealing. These establishments typically offer secluded settings, often with views over the countryside, and may feature amenities like private decks or sophisticated dining options. The focus here is on tranquillity and privacy, with opportunities for scenic walks or visits to local craft studios.

Families travelling with children will appreciate locations on larger estates near the R103. Many of these offer more space, often with gardens, swimming pools, and sometimes even farm animals, providing entertainment for younger guests.

When is the best time to go to Balgowan?
