What Makes Dunmarly Lodge Different

A closer look at the details our guests notice most

Locally Sourced Kitchen

Our chefs work with farms and suppliers around Edinburgh and the Lothians, building seasonal menus around produce that's fresh, traceable, and thoughtfully prepared.

Curated Wine Selection

A cellar assembled over years of tasting and travel, featuring Scottish gins alongside European wines chosen to complement each course on the menu.

Private Gaming Lounge

A quiet, wood-panelled room set aside for classic table games, roulette and blackjack among them, staffed by professional dealers for guests wanting an evening of entertainment on-site.

Restored Manor Interiors

Original stonework, fireplaces, and period furnishings have been preserved and restored, giving the lodge a character that newer builds simply can't replicate.

Private Event Spaces

Several rooms throughout the lodge can be arranged for private dinners, small celebrations, or gatherings, each with its own atmosphere and outlook over the grounds.

Attentive, Experienced Team

Many of our staff have been with Dunmarly Lodge for years, and it shows in the small touches, from remembering a returning guest's usual table to timing courses well.

What Our Guests Say

Booked the Library Room for a work trip, ended up extending a night because the whole place is just calmer than a normal hotel. The venison on the menu was properly good, not just decoration on a plate.
Rajesh Nair Consultant visiting Edinburgh for business
My parents wanted somewhere with history for their 40th, we got the Executive Lodge Suite, plenty of room for the extended family to gather before dinner. The staff sorted table arrangements without us having to chase anyone.
Isabel Ortega Daughter organising a family celebration
Went for one night mainly curious about the table games lounge, stayed for the food honestly. Blackjack table was small and unhurried, nothing flashy, just a nice way to end an evening after a long dinner.
Callum Wright Local resident, first-time visitor
The Classic Manor Room had more character than most places twice the price, original fireplace and everything. Breakfast was simple but well done, and nobody rushed us out in the morning.
Priya Chandran Traveller on a short Scotland trip
Held a small retirement dinner in one of their private rooms, maybe 14 of us. They handled the menu changes for a couple of dietary needs without any fuss and the room itself felt properly set apart from the main dining area.

Questions Guests Often Ask

Is the gaming lounge open to hotel guests only, or to visitors as well?

The gaming lounge is open to both overnight guests and visitors dining with us that evening. We'd recommend calling ahead, as space is limited and it can fill up on weekends and around holidays.

Do I need to book in advance to use the table games lounge?

A reservation isn't strictly required but is strongly advised, particularly Friday and Saturday evenings. You can request a spot when booking your table or room, or call the lodge directly on the day.

Is there a dress code for dinner or the lounge?

We ask for smart casual attire in the dining room and gaming lounge in the evenings. Jeans are fine if paired with a collared shirt or similar; we'd rather guests feel comfortable than overly formal.

Do you accommodate group bookings for dinner or private events?

Yes, several rooms in the lodge can be set aside for private dinners or small events, typically for groups of 8 to 40. Contact us in advance so we can discuss menu options and room availability.

Is parking available on-site?

Yes, Dunmarly Lodge has a gravel courtyard car park for guests and diners, free of charge. Space is generous outside of peak weekend evenings, when we may direct you to overflow parking nearby.

What are your check-in and dinner service hours?

Check-in begins at 3pm and dinner service runs from 6pm to 9:30pm most evenings. The gaming lounge typically opens around 7pm and stays open into the later evening for guests still on the premises.
