Ricketwood House, Gullane

Owned by an expatriate Scot, now living and golfing in the USA, Ricketwood House offers some lovely local touches blended in with the luxuries and conveniences demanded by our transatlantic guests.  Whilst unmistakably a haven for golfers, Ricketwood has a lot to offer for families, groups of friends, or just anyone keen to enjoy the rich variety of attractions East Lothian has to offer.

We hope that you enjoy your stay and find our property exceptionally comfortable.
The house can accommodate up to ten people in five spacious bedrooms, three of which have luxurious en-suite bathrooms.  The master has a fixed (king size) double bed, but each of the other bedrooms has a zip & link, so you can choose to have any of them set up with a (large) double bed, or with twin beds.

Downstairs you will be amazed by the generous socialising and entertainment spaces, which make this house ideal for your family get-together, your group golfing trip, or even to show off a little and entertain guests or clients.

Furnished and equipped to an exceptionally high standard the house is wonderfully located on quiet Duncur Road, just a stone's throw from Muirfield. To complete your experience we can organise high quality in-house catering, airport, golf and general transfers, restaurant recommendations and any other advice or assistance to help complete your plans.  Please ask at the time of booking.

Or why not use the five bicycles provided (in the garage) to explore the surrounding countryside.

Smoking inside the house is not permitted and we do not allow pets.

Efficient wireless broadband is provided, and there is a wall mounted 72" TV, complete with Sky Q including Sky Sports and Movies.  In fact there are large screen TV's in the drawing room, garden room and study, each with access to the Sky Q system, and each with sound through a state of the art Sonos system.  When you're not watching TV you can hook your Sonos app up and enjoy your favourite music in superb high quality.

You will find tea and coffee in the kitchen jars, kitchen detergents, dishwasher tablets and washing machine capsules close to where you will use them, guest toileteries in all of the bathrooms, and cloths, kitchen paper, toilet rolls, etc. all provided.
​
Should you need to get to a shop quickly, there is a Co-Op at the far (west) end of Gullane village just 5 mins drive away.  It’s open 6am-10pm (7am-10pm on a Sunday).  For a bigger grocery shop it’s a 15 minute drive to Tesco in North Berwick – at the far edge of town on the Dunbar Road.
