good food and drink served up here is sure to

Vin will take care of the rest.
HOUSTOUN HOUSE
Macdonald Houstoun House
Uphall, West Lothian, EH52 6JS
0344 879 9043
Set in 22 acres of woodlands, Houstoun House
offers respite from big city life. Edinburgh may
be 20 minutes away, but in the grounds of this
country house hotel, all is quiet. 70 striking rooms
combine luxury with comfort, the pick of which
is the feature bedroom housed in the tower. No
country house hotel would be complete without a
restaurant to match; Jeremy Wares at Houstoun
House creates seasonal Scottish cuisine of the
highest calibre, as evinced by its two AA Rosettes.
Every room has a purpose at Houstoun House,
including the cellar which has been converted
into the Vaulted Bar, where restoring brews are
served in a cosy setting, ranging from afternoon
tea to champagne and cocktails. The building may
hark back to the 16th century but the facilities are
from the 21st: the Vital Health and Wellbeing Club
features an 18-metre pool, gym, treatment rooms,
sauna and outdoor tennis court.
