CORPORATE RETREATS

A private estate for corporate escapes

ESCAPE THE OFFICE

Swap the office for the East Lothian countryside

With a client list including Soho House, Under Armour, NBC Sports, Diageo and the BBC, Gilmerton House has become a trusted destination for companies seeking peaceful surroundings outside the city. Suited to board meetings, leadership gatherings and team retreats, the estate offers large reception rooms, expansive gardens, comfortable rooms and private dining – privacy, space and proper hospitality, whether entertaining clients or rewarding your team. Because it is reserved exclusively for you, unlike a hotel, it is entirely yours for as long as you are here, with space to think as well as space to gather.
