About this house rental

A stunning Country House built in 1806, this former manse, and until her death, home to Frances Shand Kydd, mother of Diana, Princess of Wales. It is a magnificent Georgian building, beautifully modernised while retaining old-world charm. 6 comfortable bedrooms with 5 bathrooms, there is space for 12 adults, and 2 children. With a drawing room with open fire and dual aspect, a tv room with 40" tv and freeview and dvds, a spacious dining/kitchen with AGA, a bright and airy dining conservatory and a formal dining room to seat 14, there is ample space for families. Centrally heated, open-fire, and AGA, together with electric blankets on all beds ensure a warm stay, whatever the weather. The house sits in an acre of walled garden, and surrounded by hundreds of acres of grazing land. There is a terrace with BBQ, a garden with trampoline and swings, and we have a local Hot Tub hirer who will supply a hot tub for the duration of your stay. Please let me know your requirements. Within 30 minutes of over 50 golf-courses, including Gleneagles and St Andrews, we are well-located for golfers. Edinburgh, Perth, St Andrews and Dundee are all within 40 minutes, and trains run to Markinch, 10 minutes away.

The property was the perfect place for our group. Plenty of space to enjoy each other’s company and the natural treasures of Falkland.

This is a superb property! Close to the delightful village of Falkland. Plenty of room for our party of 10 in Scotland for a family reunion. Duncan our host was friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Ladywell house was ideal for our 4 day getaway. Loved the spacious rooms and high ceilings. The property is full of history too which makes the stay even more special. Duncan’s a very friendly owner and is extremely responsive throughout the process. The location is fantastic - it’s on the outskirts of Falkland village so very tranquil yet within walking distance to the village. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to returning soon!

We had a wonderful four night stay in such a beautiful home. As a group of what should have been 11, but two cancelled at short notice, it was a delight to find somewhere to accommodate all of us in such comfort and with ample bathroom facilities. A grand salon accommodated everyone in the evening, and there are other places to tuck away when wanted. I thoroughly enjoyed the en suite bath in the Shand Kydd room. Plenty of cutlery, china and cooking utensils, although the quiche chef had to use a wine bottle in place of a rolling pin. A resounding cheer from us all for Ladywell House.

Showers were small and a very tight fit for some, bed in Diana room a bit tired.

My friends and I have just returned from a weekend at this Beautiful House that is within walking distance to places to eat/drink we ate at the Stag Inn and the Covenanter Hotel whose food and service were second to none. We do a weekend away in Scotland once a year and this house certainly didn't disappoint. I would highly recommend this property. Kathleen Glasgow

From the time of booking two years ago, until the end of our 3 nights stay, the owner Duncan could not have been more helpful, considerate and supportive. Our thanks to him for a wonderful stay! My family and I were attending a wedding in Cupar , so we chose Ladywell House for its location, size and amenities and were not disappointed!. It is quite simply awesome. The property has 6 double +1 bedrooms, 3 en suite shower rooms, and 2 beautifully presented separate bathrooms as well as a large dining room and two sitting rooms/ tv / lounges. The house is impressively spacious, comfortable and has great historic interest. There is a lovely conservatory where one can dine together or simply enjoy morning coffee overlooking the garden and beautiful scenery beyond. The enclosed, very private, walled garden is beautifully maintained with mature trees and flower borders. There is also a large outdoor patio dining/ seating area which we thoroughly enjoyed given the fine weather!. As we also had small dogs with us, the large lawn and privacy that the walled garden afforded was particularly welcomed. There are some beautiful walks nearby... not least Falkland Estate, a 4 min drive from Ladywell House; so it is perfectly positioned for those who love Country walks with their dogs . For those who are considering booking with their dogs there is a large kitchen/ utility and separate boot room, as well as the conservatory, so space for pets is more than adequate and our 4 were very content. Although we chose not to allow our dogs into the sitting / dining rooms, this is not prohibited per say... but, allowing pets on any chairs / couches downstairs is, and no pets are permitted upstairs. This is perfectly understandable and acceptable, given the quantity and quality of antique furniture and chairs. I realise I have waxed long with this review but I wanted to do justice to this amazing house! We all just loved it. Thank you again Duncan......we will be back!
