My husband and I stayed with his family. It was a great treat, the house is beautiful and beautifully restored and rooms, bathrooms and sitting rooms are really comfortable with everything thought of for your comfort. They very kindly upgraded us and gave us a whole floor of the house. Sandra & John thought of everything for our stay and... More

I was a bridesmaid for Ellie and Garry's wedding (which I believe was the first at Durn House) and I think the day couldn't have went more perfect, thanks to John and Sandra. I was first to arrive at the venue, where I was politely greeted by John, and was given a tour of the house, which is absolutely stunning.... More

Just had our wedding at Durn House last week, and we honestly could not have asked for a better venue. The building is stunning, staff and owners are amazingly helpful and the overall experience is one in a million. I would highly recommend Durn House as a wedding venue or location for a weekend get away. More

Attended a wedding at Durn House in April 2012 and was very impressed with the location, the house, the staff and the attention to detail. It was such a lovely setting for a wedding and the staff managed that great feat of being so attentive whilst remaining unobtrusive. Would highly reccommend Durn House for a luxury break, a wedding or... More

The quality and the attentional to detail by Sandra and John made our stay a complete pleasure from the accommodation to the food and their outstanding "hosting" More

Although only an hour away from home for us, the decision to stay here was an inspired one. If you have ever visited a National Trust property and wondered what must it be like to stay here, then Durn House is for you. The quality and attention to detail which John and Sandra have put into the house is repeated... More

Having just returned from a two night stay at Durn House I can only "ditto" what previous Tripadvisors have written. John and Sandra have lovingly restored this lovely old house into quality accommodation and provide everything you need yo make your visit special. I might add that the food is delicious - both breakfast and dinner. Durn House is a... More

Durn House is an 18th century Georgian mansion house which has been beautifully restored by its owners John and Sandra. As soon as we arrived for our 2 nights stay we were welcomed by John and Sandra, helped in with our luggage, then given cups of tea and home made shortbread in the drawing room. They told us all about... More

On our trip up to Portsoy, I had to admit to my exhausted husband that I didn't actually know if our room was ensuite... we too had taken advantage ofthe "winter warmer special offer" of 2 nights DB&B for £198, on the recommendation of a friend. Well, you've read about the rooms, but our ensuite was bigger than our bedroom... More
